The man who fatally shot a woman who was in a car that turned into the wrong driveway was sentenced Friday to 25 years to life for his second-degree murder conviction.
Using those figures, the murder rate of U.S. citizens in Mexico was around 0.26 per 100,000 visitors, significantly lower than the rate in the United States.
You can’t ticket me officer! I was just trying not to get shot!
I worry this is a valid excuse for missing school, sneaking out of a concert, doing doughnuts on a lawn, etc.
Pistols are lethal a mile out from where they were fired. Can you imagine how many guns are within a mile radius in many parts of America ?
It seems taking a trip to Mexico is also a valid way to escape gun violence.
Canada would be. Mexico’s homicide rate is almost 5x higher than the USA.

Google “us homicide rate” and then “mexico homicide rate”. It’ll take you 5 seconds.
Apparently it’s only bad for Mexicans:
