Just read about that. The tourist areas used to be somewhat safe...
Acapulco's murder rate of 142 killings per 100,000 residents is 28 times higher than the U.S. average.Mexico is getting increasingly less desirable as a tourist destination.Violence in the city started to skyrocket in 2009, after the drug lord Arturo Beltran Leyva was killed in Cuernavaca by Mexican security forces, sparking a struggle for control of Acapulco's profitable drug market among rival gangs.
The result: dozens of beheaded bodies, victims with their limbs chopped off and some mass execution sites. There have also been a few "desollados" (desollado is the Spanish term for a victim whose skin has been peeled off his face).
The problem is so massive that it appears the government is virtually powerless to stop the illegal drug trade, which is one of the main contributors to the violence.
