bump! been need to know some info on this about the border , been hearing some crazy stories of what happened to people ..

My girls aunt friend went to the part of mexico where is right under cali , and it was a group of females , well they were in the market buying stuff going to leave within the hr , and one of the girls drifted off to go to the restroom. well they were looking for her for hrs and didnt find her so they tought she went home. on the way home about to get to a check point they see her friend looking asleep in a white van with her head leaning against the window. Well they stop ask the check point police to stop the van that was her friend . When they did they ask them to let the girl go they said no she with us and asleep and well the cops try to wake her up chick was dead. and cut from throat all the way down , they opened her up to stuff her with drugs . Fucken stupid crazy **** like that.

There's been several shootings in Piedras Negras this past week, several large business owners have gone missing. It's pretty ugly, but i'd say you're ok if you go during the day and just take care of your business and come back. It's changed drastically in the past few years.

they always say that aslong as you mind your business you'll be fine. but the 3 shootings this past week were out during the day, in populated business areas.

Man its crazy that you posted this thread. I have a small amount of family in that area and my dad grew up there. He has alot of old friends but it sounds totally different now. I used to go but its really been about 7 years since ive been to mexico, lots of family and we always entered thru eagles pass. Stay safe out there, honestly if the normal citizens would start carrying weapons none of this crap would be happening, masses > few thugs and drug lords. My parents still go up there about every 6 months 2.

No passports needed lol. Trust me I went through there on Mothers day weekend, in my ws6 at that lol.

You should be okay in E.P. but I would still be very careful.

NO PISTOLS ACCROSS THE BORDER!
