“I do feel bad that the honest folks in Mexico have to live with this situation. That’s what you get when the regular people are disarmed.”
Bob:
Your statement above could not further from the truth and is 100% incorrect!
With Mexico, as with most Latino Americano countries, the corruption within the government is overwhelming. That is the way of life in these countries. Guns, corruption, theft of everything and anything, drugs & murder is all part of daily activity. The local people in many cases are as guilty as the government.
In countries where firearms are allowed, the situation seems to remain the same. I don’t have any printed statistics, I speak solely based on my experience as I was raised in Puerto Rico.
I have no idea of the current gun control in Mexico or any other South America countries. However doing business in Mexico and knowing some American friends who reside in Mexico who work for American companies, not somewhere this honest person would care to reside for various reasons.
Please don’t misunderstand what I am saving. Latin America is outstanding in every way. The culture, food, people and weather. One just has to come to grips with ones surroundings much the same way and anywhere else where one takes up residency.
Saludos,
Jorge
