We leave for Cancun tomorrow. There are horror stories in every part of the US. (Chapel Hill, NC comes to mind…) Although these stories are indeed tragic, and the sadness that these parents must feel is incomprehensible, so are the stories of auto accident victims, young people who die of senseless violence, disease, etc. Everyone has to make their own decisions; being vigilant, making intelligent choices (especially when it comes to drinking/drugs), and handing over your wallet without a fight if someone has a gun at your side, should be the rule, regardless of where you go. Any kind of travel has its risks (as does driving to work every day).
