I live in Mexico some of the year. I have never had a problem. Just have to know where you are and be in towns that are safe. We have Chicago, Baltimore, SF, Newark. I much prefer Mexico. Having said that, Harris/Biden have been pathetic on the border. Been there and it is disturbing . Oddly enough, it isn't Mexican for a large degree, but Somalis, Chinese and a whole host of Central American Countries....Now that is a problem. We don't know what freaking terrorist we are letting in.
