A few more concerns:

1. all of the men with guns in Cd Juarez. I think the most dangerous group is called "la policia".

Isn't this city notorious for being run by drug smuggling gangs? Haven't there been vicious gang wars with dozens of people being killed? Don't 97% of murders in Mexico go unsolved? Aren't the regional law enforcement, politicians and beaurocracy in bed with the drug smugglers?

You better have the right connections and pay off the right people. And you will need security guards who actually carry guns. Maybe off duty police would be a good idea. Of course, they would probably rob you too.

Seconded. The idea of using Mexico to avoid state anti-gambling laws is completely friggin' retarded. You'd actually do better running an illegal room on the US side of the border.
