I would like to go back to the place I honeymooned with my wife, one of the prettiest places on Earth, Las Hadas. {time} 1415 For our 25th anniversary we went to Cancun. But I am not comfortable going back now. I read recently near Cancun cartels had some people killed. I want Mexico to return to being a safe place to go.

The corruption is terrible. People who stand up many times pay with their lives or family members' lives. I have heard people here on the floor say that this is a manufactured crisis and that, of course, the megaphone that is used in places like CNN, MSNBC, and others repeat the same exact talking points.
