Because, unlike Mexico, it's a place Poppy Girl actually has knowledge of

I have no desire to have any more knowledge then I already have of Mexico after traveling the world extensively and looking forward to a few more destinations Mexico is not on the list.

Meauxna may have reacted to the same comment that raised my hackles, the insinuation that Americans never leave their doorstep and therefore aren't qualified to comment. "americans replying who cant bear the thought of being out of their own wonderful country, because they are small minded and brainwashed." Meauxna pointed out what I, myself, had noticed. Right or wrong, not a single born American had responded to the OP at the point that this comment was made, so this comment was completely unwarranted. An assumption because the discussion took place in the US forum, and a cheap shot.

It's honestly quite offensive. Not your comments (please understand that I'm just trying to explain), but the insinuation that all Americans are ignorant of the ways of the world. Are some of us? Yes, absolutely. Are all of us? I bet Meauxna and I are more traveled than the average European.

So somebody who has managed a grand total of 2 posts, 1 when he made that comment has led to all this and the comments from the regulars on here that didn't once mention anything about Americams have gone completely ignored. Either this place has gone mad or I have.

That's fair. Sometimes Americans get tired of being picked on for being ignorant.

Back to the original question:

Yes you are going to die.

Going to Cancun on vacation will make no appreciable difference to your chances of dying at any particular time in any particular way.
