I presume that you've never toured in Mexico, and that would explain your utterly erroneous image of the country, its people, and what touring in Mexico is actually like.

Anytime somebody posts a query here about touring in Mexico, people who haven't actually toured in Mexico come out of the woodwork to express their own irrational fears. There is plenty of information available about which parts of Mexico are best avoided. Most of Mexico between the Yucatan and Mexico City is fairly safe or very safe.
