Did anything happen when you went to Mexico? I am afraid to go travel there because I hear stories that the police stop you and tell lies to try and make you give them money, is this common? would you travel with a family there and feel safe?

My worst experience was going through the airport (going in the A/C was broke and I was in line behind a LOT of people from another country who did not believe in using deodorant PU - I thought I was going to puke before I ever got out of there) and then (on the way out I got searched boarding the plane back home - they made me take off my shoes and patted me down and everything - but I was legal so I got on the plane and home I went) I would not trade my trip to Mexico for anything it was beautiful. Can't be scared of travel - you could get shot etc just going to the grocery store - live a little and don't worry about things that don't matter

I have traveled extensively in Mexico and the worst thing that ever happened to me was getting Montezumas revenge on my first trip. I'm fairly sure that when I didn't have me entry card to return at the end of my trip. At the airport I was sent from office to ofice

I've never heard anything about police harrasment but the souvenier mob will try to rip you off as soon as they spot you are a tourist.
