So, do you have any kids or grandkids who might be thinking of going to Mexico for Spring Break? Or any other vacation south of the Rio Grande or along the Gulf of America? The prudent parent/grandparent would tell them to cancel those plans. “But we’ve already put money down!” they might say.
Pretty sure their lives are worth more than a pre-paid spring break trip or a deposit on hotels, etc.
Are you and your spouse thinking of going to that failed state of Mexico for recreation?
You might reconsider those plans.
Here’s what happened to nine young people who went on vacay to southern Mexico:
From the NY Post:
The bodies of nine students who went missing on vacation in southern Mexico last month have been found dismembered by the side of a local highway — with a bag of hands nearby.
The group’s gruesome remains were discovered in the trunk of an abandoned vehicle and underneath a blood-covered tarp in San Jose Miahuatlan on the border of the Mexican states of Puebla and Oaxaca.
Four of the bodies were in the trunk, while the other five corpses were left under the tarp.
A bag with eight pairs of hands was also found at the scene, with two more hands left in the trunk, reported Periodico Central.
They were tortured before they were killed. For those slow on the uptake, that means the women (and maybe some of the men) were gang raped. Repeatedly and viciously.
You want that for your daughter/granddaughter?
Yeah you got to check your news sources. These were not students. These were not americans. These were Mexicans living in Mexico and the youngest was 19. The oldest was 30 something. Most of them were in their late twenties and early 30s. I think these were probably people who were in the game so to speak. We don’t know any of the story but remember rule number one that the first story that the media reports is always a lie. That said why would anybody want to go to Mexico in the first place?
