Anyone have any experience flying with a self defense mechanism like mace or a taser into Mexico? Are these legal to bring there in any capacity or is this an absolute no go?

I would be double certain, not just “some dude on TD said it was OK”, before I took anything there. I know people who have spent time in jail down there for a random shotgun shell under a truck seat. They don’t frick around with the Gringos, they can and will toss you in La Carcel.

A) Unless you go looking for trouble you won't encounter it, like any city in the US or anywhere in the world, and
B) If someone is trying to kidnap/harm/threaten you, your little mace isn't stopping armed cartel members.

Why do you feel you need to bring something like that? You planning to be visiting the remote cartel compounds?

If you're that worried, why go?

I have no idea about the legality of it, but it has never crossed my mind to try and fly anywhere with something like that. Just seems like you'd be asking for trouble.

This.

Does your lady still live at home with her parents? Seems like an immature and naïve question to ask.
