It is EXTREMELY rare that you see any undercover cops trying to bust tourists. Feel free to "dabble" with little to no worries if you so choose.
Worry! In Mexico entrapment is a real possibility. That and the fact some unscrupulous individuals can make money by turning you into the police. I suggest you think twice, you don’t have the same legal rights as you do in the USA …
Not just one opinion, but many more of the same. Do a search on the CC forums and you will find several threads on the topic. Just a sample: http://www.cancuncare.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=30589&highlight=entrapment http://www.cancuncare.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8164&highlight=entrapment
This will be my 9th year down there. I, and MANY people I know personally, have experience with this as being no problem at all. Is there a risk? Of course. But every taxi driver, person trying to get you into their establishment, and their mom is offering you something as you walk by. Be cautious you don't get robbed, but not arrested...
exactly dream....I've been keeping an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get out of hand, and its good so far, but we def. don't condone that around these parts
