So if you visit Mexico and elsewhere (such as Miami-Dade County) - it is recommended that you don't act like a tourist there just to blend in with the crowds so that is least likely you would be targeted by the bad people/groups.

Yes its excellent advice but it is hard to pretend Im not a tourist if I have blonde hair and blue eyes and cannot speak Spanish. They would know right away that I do not fit there.
I was mugged once in Mexico and another time in Rome. Can't always prevent that but just to use common sense.
