Mexico's main purpose is to inform travelers about the dangers and violence that is going on in many parts of Mexico. Their main concern and message, is to inform travelers about the areas that are most dangerous , and of course the one that are safe to go to.
American travelers headed to Mexico should be farwarned of possible violent retaliation for this week's arrest of seven alleged Zetas drug cartel members, according to a new travel warning issued by the U.S. State Department. The Zetas cartel formed in 1999 and is engaged in an otter violent turf war with the Gulf Cartel and the east and south of Mexico, because of this war more than 500,00 people have died. In 2010 72 people were killed by the Zetas because they didn't want to become part of their organization. The Zetas killed, robed, and even make other people become part of their Cartel, and as said if they dont agree, they killed them. Many leaders of the Zetas cartel have died, but there are more. The mexican government does not know when did deadly war will end.
This war is happening in Mexico, mainly there, but people from around the world go there. And I myself would also like to warned those poeple around the world that would like to visit Mexico, let them know what are the safest areas to visit.
The Mexican government makes a considerable effort to protect U.S.citizens and other visitors to major tourist destinations, the Department said back in Frebuary. Nevertheless, U.S. travelers should be aware that the Mexican government has been engaged in an extensive effort to counter TCOs, which engage in narcotics trafficking and other unlawful activities throughout Mexico. As a result, crime and violence are serious problems throughout the country and can occur anywhere.
The department said that U.S. citizens have fallen victim to homicides, gun battles, kidnapping, carjacking and highway robbery. The number of U.S. citizens reported to the Department of State as murdered in Mexico increased from 35 in 2007 to 120 in 2011.
According to the most recent homicide figures published by the Mexiican government, 47, 515 people were killed in narcotics-related violence in Mexico between Dec. 1, 2006, and Sept. 30, 2011, with 12, 903 narcotics-related homicides in the first nine months of 2011 alone.
In Mexico more than 5,000 people have been killed due to the fact that many drug cartels want all the power, and they don't cared how many people they killed.
