I’m Mexican and I agree with this meme.
okay but is everything tinted yellow in Mexico?
Yes, and we all wear big hats and a huge mustache.
I’ve been to Mexico like 6 times.
The first 5 times were all excellent trips, wonderful places, wonderful people.
The sixth time, we were all literally robbed by Mexican police officers at the airport who claimed we couldn’t leave the country without paying an “exit tax” of $200 USD each, and told us we either paid and got on our flight home or we didn’t pay and they took us to prison.
I don’t go back to Mexico now.
Andrew Callaghan’s Channel 5 has a few videos about migrants coming to America, and a couple of the people he interviewed mentioned being more scared of the Mexican police than the border patrol.
He actually goes to Mexico and hops the border back into America in one of his videos, I highly recommend checking him out.
I highly recommend checking him out.
Didn’t he rape a bunch of women? Or was it just that he turned out to be super pushy when it comes to sex?
There was a drama or something, but at this point I can’t be fucked to fact-check every accusation when so many people get accused of shit. I figure if it’s really that bad I’ll hear about it on here, Reddit, or someone else’s YouTube channel.
Either way, his content is informative regardless of his past, so even if he were a rapist or some shit I’d just continue watching with adblock.

You mean, like, in the comment to which you just replied? Because you are hearing about it here…
Only the last one should be police
That would be the US, not Mexico.
No, that’s very much Mexico as well
Is this how we improve the US?
Tell all the racists they’re behaving worse than Mexicans?
Is this how we improve Mexico?
Tell all the Mexicans they’re really just bad Americans?
LPT: NOT police men 😶🌫️
Gotta provide some details for us non Mexican folks.
They look like they are part of the federal government?
It is common for either:
A - cartel to dress up to look like police men (commonly recognized through wearing masks over face)
B - police men to be in cahoots with cartel (iirc this is becoming less and less common)
Also actual cops, like uninformed police officers who pull you over, will rob you. My friend got caught with some weed over there and while he was handcuffed they tried to get his wallet several times. He finally convinced them he’d give them some money if they uncuffed him and he gave them half of what he had. He said they would have taken all of it if they were able to get his wallet without having to beat him.
Why couldn’t they get his wallet if he was handcuffed?
Top one needs to be tinted yellow.
I’m visiting Mexico City for the first time in April.
Hopefully things will be mellow.
Just don’t expect cheese on your quesadillas and you’ll be fine
Been to CDMX many times, where I take the subways to get around. I’m a gringo and CDMX has its bad areas like any other big city. They do also have police and cartel problems. Depending on your ethnicity and location, the US is equally dangerous. These things said, I love Mexico City and will always return. It is incredible and the folks who live there are wonderful.
I’ve lived in Mexico for over 20 years now, and yeah there is crime, yeah there are problems, but I rarely felt unsafe, really.
