NOT SCHOOL RELATED .... News you do not want to hear about

Seven people were killed and one critically wounded in a shooting at a law office in Colonia Providencia last week.

No, not that I am aware. There are some students that have had isolated incidents with traffic police, but that is rare. Overall, you are LESS likey to have problems in Guadalajara than in most cities in the USA if you show repect and curtesy to authorities here

This incident was obviously a specific "hit." To my knowledge, even the Leaños have never out put a hit on a student here

By the way, does anyone know what these hitmen charge, and if they work in the USA, too? There might be a solution to this Fifth Pathway problem afterall. Disclaimer: This is not a recommendation that anyone seriously harm anyone. we love everyone - even those turds from big bass fish that do not love us.... world peace, man.

Yes, it was close. 40 minutess on foot, 7 by car. However, like I said, it was a "hit" and not some random shooting. Personally, I am surprised this does not happen to more lawyers...

I feel confident to say you are safer from most violence here than in cities like LA, NYC, Chicago, etc. Especially shootings.

there are no guns in mexico, too expensive. They can throw ninja style tostadas or sopes and you are a dead man immediately. The school can use maltezian tests to actually make you commit suicide so they never have to go aand buy the aboved mentioned "Tools" of death from the taco stand next to the papeleria , our famous and delicious "E.coli Tacos"

Yes... Another student texted me after I wrote it, and said it sounded too personally hostile if a certain breaded idiot read it.

Another killing, this time in PV, a student from Colorado. Seems like it involved some kind of coverup.
