If you were a foreigner and you'd been shot on a prairie outside Guadalajara would you first:

a) Ring a trusted Mexican friend to come and pick you up and take you to a hospital

or

B) Ring an ambulance

There are prairies outside of Guadalajara?

Is there a particular reason this has to be set in Mexico? Don�t we have enough bad publicity without having some made up stuff added to the mix?

How far outside of Guadalajara? You might not get cell reception.

Everything around Guadalajara is agave...fields and fields of it.

if A and B are the only choices, I'd call a friend.

My first reaction was the same as BBB's Question

And my final answer is the same as Guy's.

(I don't even know how to ring an ambulance in Mexico.)

If it helps ease your concerns, its an American who does the shooting....

Thanks anyway

Who would you cast as the shooter? Cause if it's Brad Pitt a la The Mexican, I might be okay (doesn't look like he can shoot). If it's Johnny Depp, then neither friend nor ambulance would help.

Is Antonio Banderas American or is he still considered Spanish? And let's not forget Denzel...
