Mexico: not exactly the most stable place. Might make sense to sell on the next rally in your favorite Mexican-located mining company and head elsewhere:

Drug War Mayhem Boils Over From Border to Border

By JOHN ROSS

"The U.S. is arming both sides in Mexico's drug war. The drug gangs are loaded to the teeth with arms smuggled across the border and to balance this homicidal equation, Washington has produced "Plan Mexico", a major build-up of Mexico's drug-fighting capacity, the first phase of which will send a half billion dollars worth of used Bell helicopters, armored vehicles, and computer systems south once the appropriation clears congress.

Mexico's drug war is made in the U.S.A. Calderon takes his orders from Washington and the U.S. is not only arming both sides but sending in soldiers to fill out the ranks of both bands - the Detroit hitmen vs. U.S. troops who are now authorized to wage war on Mexican soil by the North American Agreement on Security and Prosperity (ASPAN) signed by the three NAFTA counties in 2006 to advance integration of their security apparatuses. Even more pertinent to the U.S.'s central role in this war: the vast quantities of drugs over which all this blood is being spilled, is exclusively destined for U.S. consumers."
