Hold on a sec, MEXICO is issuing a travel advisory… really?
As it turns out, the nation that’s infamous for drug cartels essentially calling all the shots in the northern half of the country; notorious corruption all every single level of government; in the best of situations, Mexico is the worst of the Third World already spilling into America.

It is recommended to take care of belongings and travel documents, particularly at airports, railway stations, as well as on the metro and public transport, and anywhere where there are concentrations of people.
Mexican travelers are recommended to be particularly careful with the safeguarding of their passports. It is suggested not to carry travel documents while carrying out tourist activities in highly concentrated areas, it is preferable to keep the documents in a safe or in a trusted place.
It is recommended to travel in authorized taxis, the permit is in sight and the driver wears a badge. Police issued an alert about the danger of assaults and rapes in unauthorized taxis.
In the United Kingdom, the terrorist threat is classified into five levels (low, moderate, substantial, severe, and critical). The current level of risk in the UK is SUBSTANTIAL, meaning that an attack is likely.
