Sen Mullin urges spring breakers to cancel trips to Mexico amid country's violence: 'No one should be going'

Category: WARS & RUMORS OF WARS

Summary:
Senator Markwayne Mullin urged spring breakers to cancel trips to Mexico following violent clashes triggered by the Mexican army's killing of cartel leader Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, known as "El Mencho." The operation against El Mencho, head of the Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generación, was conducted with U.S. intelligence support. After his death, cartel members burned cars and blocked roads in several states, though Mexican authorities later said the situation had stabilized and transit and airport operations were resuming. The U.S. State Department travel advisory for Mexico remains in effect, despite the lifting of a shelter-in-place order for Americans in the country.

Scripture: Proverbs 14:34-35 (NASB 1977)
"Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin is a disgrace to any people. The king’s favor is toward a servant who acts wisely, But his anger is toward him who acts shamefully."

Commentary:
Proverbs names the real dividing line: public righteousness versus disgrace, and wise restraint versus shameful violence. When a cartel leader’s removal triggers roadblocks and burned cars, ordinary people feel it first—closed highways, delayed flights, and the uneasy calculation of whether it’s safe to travel. This is not abstract. Scripture also shows a prophetic pattern of instability where lawlessness and retaliatory power struggles spread quickly and strain nations’ governance. Believers should seek sober wisdom and pray for just order.

Prophetic Trend:
Escalating lawlessness and retaliatory violence are pressuring national stability, reflecting the biblical pattern of unrest where governance is tested by disorder.
