That should be the response from the United States to Mexican President Andres Manual Lopez Obrador.
 
No translation needed, we hope.
 
Mr. Obrador said his country is "safer than the United States" in response to inquiries surrounding the kidnapping of four Americans, two of them killed.  A Mexican bystander was also killed.

Obrador blamed American conservatives for criticism of his country.
