    UH OH, What's wrong with Memphis, we just booked a 3 day vacation there, it looks pretty cool, 6 of us going, Beale St on a Saturday Night sounds pretty cool, that Trolley System, Graceland, is there something I am unaware or naive about?

    Thanks

    Just follow the crowd and you'll be fine.
    And don't research crime stats...

    Well, I sure am glad that noone singled out Newark as a place to not go for a vacation. I'm so looking forward to spending a fun filled couple of days in Newark, NJ.:aktion061:

    Thanks Rob

    We are still planning on going and have your week pencilled in, assuming the stars align themselves (and 3 weeks out of 4 within a month), we'll be there, looking forward to it.

    Thanks

    Thanks, that's good to hear, it sounds like a fun place to visit, any must see, must do stuff that you are aware of.

    Newark, ahh yes, Glad no one mentioned Newark.... Let me know how that trip goes, and Ill let you know how I made out with my romantic getaway in the Bronx haha.....

    On a serious note about the other posts, I agree with most... with reading a lot about the situation in Mexico, The government is trying very hard to make headway in the war on drugs, thats why in some areas the violence increases, cuz its the drug cartel and gangs way of trying to bully the system and say if you do this , then we will do that... a pissing match so to speak... so because I personally believe the government in Mexico is doing what it can so far , in order to try to clean it up and keep the country and tourism in place....
    I also agree with DOS, if people begin to boycott and tourism starts to plummet, Resorts will begin to lay off people (as witnessed during swine flu when people stopped going to mexico) and once people loose their jobs and have no money, thats when they resort to making money any way they can, buying and selling drugs and other illegal activity to make money..its the nature of the beast, an unemployed broke person is desperate.... So in my humble opinion, a boycott will have the reverse affect for which it was intended...
