Why so many red flags on the State Department website then? Are you saying they're just wrong? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/trave

Why so many red flags on the State Department website then? Are you saying they're just wrong? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/mexico-travel-advisory.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/...
- Apocryphon 3y agoThere are six states with red flags, the rest are cautionary advisories.
- Ajedi32 3y agoYeah, but compare that to, for example, our other neighbor Canada: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/canada-travel-advisory.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/...
- projectazorian 3y agoEven the State Department warnings are localized to certain areas. And as a rule, the State Department’s advisories tend to be incredibly conservative. Nobody wants to get hauled in front of Congress because something bad happened to a tourist in an area the State Department said was okay. People who actually do business in Mexico have access to much more detailed and nuanced security advice.
