I honestly don't know. There are plenty of members in my family who have traveled to Mexico, despite it being incredibly bloody and dangerous all over. They say it's to visit relatives or go to parties, but I can honestly say that the latter reason is just ridiculous (I mean, it's not like a concert or even a major event like Mardi Gras).
One of my siblings brought up an interesting point: the reason they are not too concerned is because they would be able to "blend in" with the nationals a lot easier due to having dark complexions and being more integrated into the culture. It is a reasonable hypothesis; then I'm reminded that the insane cartels indiscriminately kill everyone, be they rich, poor, national or tourist.
I'm seriously not even considering going there until this matter is resolved or is at least put in check by a competent government and a dedicated law enforcement (of which neither exists at this moment).
