I'm going to share a bit of myself with you. I used to work as a technician that fixed cash registers, surveillance cameras, computers, most anything electronic for big box stores. And also (in another contract job) replacing laptops and printers for a very large USA based insurance company. In the space of 6 months, I was asked to show my company ID badge ... 1 time. That was it. I could've been Joe Blow and not one person would've known. I gained access to server rooms and security offices with the guy that watches the cameras.
That's why those planes went down on 9/11. Because people trusted the terrorists to follow the plan. Yeah, and they didn't.
The USA is too trusting. Like that chemical spill, they trusted that everything was going OK. Everything will be fine. Or Japan with the nuclear site that went POOF, because everything is fine.
I spent 4 years in Iraq. I slept with a knife. Not because I didn't trust people. Wait, that's exactly why. I'm in a tent with 4 other US contractors with 100 third world nationals outside in different tents .... making a lot less than I am. I went to the head with a knife. I showered with a knife. I guess the thing I learned is to always carry a *(%$ng knife.
There are some countries where if you are white/and/or/ speak English, you are a TARGET and they will kill you with a hammer to your head and take your wallet for 5 dollars.
In America, you can shop at Wal-Mart and be pretty sure that someone isn't going to explode next to you. In other countries, not so much.
One look at today's local headline, 2 murders plus 1 rape and 1 home invasion. That's just Sunday. :-)
Last year at the new year's eve, a girl had an argument with her boyfriend and she decide to walk home. She never made it. Ended up in a ditch raped and murdered.
America is a beautiful place but the crimes fostered by liberal mentality are ruining this beautiful country.

2 murders, 1 rape and 1 home invasion in a city of how many people?
Trusting isn't how I'd describe it. Stupid, gullible, provincial, backwards, etc...those terms come to mind.
No kidding. Americans are so stupid. They want to allow 50 million illegal, poor and illiterate immigrants to become citizens but engineers, managers, scientists educated in America, they want to send them back to their countries so that they can build their version of Intel, Apple, Microsoft to compete with America.
Yes, pretty safe especially compared to the 80s and 90s...
Crime rates don't lie, you know.
