AllAmerican, if you still live in El Paso, you know that things aren't improving any, either.

surely there's crime in mexico targeting tourists..
but i bet any statistic will prove crime in the u.s is much higher.
you can get shot in the u.s quite easily... or robbed at gunpoint... or carjacked.

anyhow, my reason for posting this question is because mexican immigration law specifies that for stays in mexico longer than 72 hours, an american would need a tourist card.

so i just wanna get more info about the process of getting one.

and whats all the hate about mexico?
you do realize they were in american before any of us white people came?

they were perfectly civil and happy with the land... and just because a white men decides to occupy it and border it doesnt justify kicking them away!

you do realize the western united states is named after mexicans??

san francisco
los angeles
san diego
las vegas
el paso

I thought I smelled a troll. Get on home now little doggie.

No, now I live in Kentucky and getting ready to move to South Carolina. Also, did live just north of San Diego.

I liked El Paso. But as you know they have real problems. For those those who don't know. El Paso is not just close to the border.....it's on the border. Some El Paso streets have border fences. Just a 100 yards (buffer zone) or so and you are in Mexico.

If I remember, most of the cities were of Spanish-not Mexican-origin. For instance, San Diego was named after Sebastian Vizcaíno's ( a spainiard) ship--the San Diego.

San Jose and San Fransisco were both founded by José Joaquín Moraga and his brother, who originally came from the Basque region in northern Spain.

I'm far from a history expert, so someone please correct me if I am wrong...

TK422 You are absolutely correct. Most of the cities that have the Spanish names were founded by Spanish explorers not Mexicans! That other guy doesn't have a clue, and like I said before, he needs to hit that border and act like the energizer bunny and keep going and going!! And the nerve of him to start his post out basically calling people ignroant! Go figure???

Yep...those are Spanish names. A silly European language Ever notice that the afluent types in Mexico are mostly Spanish and European descent?

Yes, it's true. I just can't understand how they think they've done everything, own everything and are owed everything. Someone please enlighten me on this. Maybe I missed something!!
