Tourism is really the city's only industry, nobody wants to ruin that.

Thats what Acapulco thought too.

So he should be afraid of dying in Puerto Vallarta because of drug-related violence in the much bigger city of Acapulco? That's your argument?

Acapulco is a HUGE tourist city also, they thought no one would want to ruin that either. Thats the argument.
Anyone who travels to Mexico without a little fear, is naive.

Except, having been to both places, there is a huge difference between Acapulco and PV.

#1. You seem to be connecting the violence in border towns and cities to places where violence has been virtually non-existent. That makes little sense.

#2. You aren't speaking from experience here. I am. There's a greater chance of me dying in a car crash tomorrow than anything happening to me in a place like PV.

This is just North of PV...http://www.dallasnews.com/news/state...exico-3338.ece

Cancun is another example...You are right, I havent been there in years. I dont have to go to the North Pole to know its cold, either.
