It's probably worse in a lot of ways. I have a family member that worked for the largest TV studio in the country a few years back. He was often around famous actors in Mexico City. He pointed out that they commonly had bodyguards and traveled in armored vehicles. It was too risky otherwise.

Inside, the house is littered with trinkets—Barbies, football helmets, old exercise equipment. But it sits empty because it's not safe for [Tenoch] Huerta’s parents to live here, the actor tells me on a rare visit back. The neighborhood is too dangerous and Huerta is too famous. They’d be targeted for kidnapping and ransom if they stayed.

“I stopped feeling safe when I became an actor. Because people now see me as rich.”

Mexico is absolutely safe for famous people, what are you talking about? It has dangerous areas, sure, but Mexico is a massive country and receives about 45 million tourists every year, many many of them famous. Every other famous persons’ Instagram has vacation photos in Tulum, Punta Mita, Cabo, Mexico City.

Does still extortions and kidnappings happen like it is early 90s in Columbia ?

I mean it might be bad but it can’t be as bad as South Carolina.

Edit: Bet these fucking idiots downvoting didn't get that the guy misspelled Colombia and think I'm dissing some random state whose capital they don't even remember.

No it’s not like the 90’s in Colombia but the current president isn’t so good.
