Pepper has offered to be my escort, but I'm still a little paranoid. I would like to make it out of Laredo alive and I'm just not sure the odds are in my favor.

Aidan, the odds are as much in your favor as they are in Houston, even more so.
Laredo has acquired a bad reputation due to all the violence across the river in Nuevo Laredo, a totally different city.
I have been traveling to Laredo for a number of years and have never felt a threat of harm. But I am just as cautious as I would be in any larger city.
Could something happen? Yes. Do I expect it to? Sometimes. Do I travel in areas of town that could be unsafe? NO.
Anyone that can manage to survive in Houston should have no problem in Laredo. And if you need a personal escort, I would be more than willing to offer my services.
