For those that still think the “Resort” Areas are “safe”.

make me more vulnerable or less aware.


Dam shame too.
A trip there would be nice. Would have been nice. 20 years ago.

Wedding anniversary celebration, drinking at the bar. He stays at the bar, wife goes to room, she misses him at 4 am.
Weird sequence of events.

He obviously didn't act gringo enough. It's safe for gringos, especially in resort areas. They don't want to risk the revenue........

As long as the fish are biting the sea of Cortez, I'll keep going.
Never have I felt unsafe. Just don't be stupid and know your surroundings. Don't drink alone at some bar in Mexico. Seems pretty reasonable. Sounds like wifey wasn't providing that vacation boom boom.

I don't know why the Hell anyone would go to Mexico. You couldn't pay me to go there. I have several cousins who travel there routinely for the resorts. I even have a cousin who has a time-share in Puerto Vallarta. They go to resorts where there's been kidnappings and murders of Americans. I don't get it and I think they have very poor judgement for traveling there.


l told my pap and mam I was going to be a mountain man; acted like they was gut-shot. Make your life go here. Here's where the peoples is. Mother Gue, I says, the Rocky Mountains is the marrow of the world, and by God, I was right.

It happens all the time. It ain't like the Mexican media is free to print everything or the resort areas want to broadcast it.

Don't get me wrong, Mexico is a stunning country. I live about and hour and a half from Cancun and used to go several times a year.

Now, it's like mowing your lawn in a thunderstorm.

Sad story for friends and family. Should have gone to Chicago instead. Survival 101 do not travel to places where they do not like you.

Hahaha. For sure.

Buds in the valley used to go across to Las Palmas and shoot hundreds of quail over pointers for a few hundred for 3 days.
One ag bud had a Mexican General friend but about 10 years ago he said to not come any more as he couldn't insure their safety.

I can't believe people pay good money to go to that place. They couldn't pay me.

Did you read the whole article?

“Elledge said Snow’s family hired an attorney who obtained crime scene photos showing he had been beaten over most of his body.”

I’m guessing he got kidnapped. Probably trying to escape and got beat to death.

I seriously doubt that the Mexican Press or Medical Examiner printed the real story.

Yes I read it, and ya, he was more than likely piling up someone's ol lady. I'm sure if his bank accounts etc were drained it woulda been in the article.👍
