Statistics are great until you are one of them. There are many other reasons not to go as well. I know I will never return to the us as long as I live.

Edit: as I said before. Read the news, not us news but world news. A lot higher than you think.

    Tourist are also robbed and murdered in Europe. Tiny fraction of all the visitors but it happens. Would you the same in this case? That statistics are great until you're one of them?

    Not the venue I was referring to, sorta a track jump.

    We're talking how dangerous some places are. You're saying that people should be worried about the tiny probability of being detained by ICE. Should they also be worried about the tiny probability of being murdered in Europe?

    I am talking the us right now not other countries. One can always find an exception to the rule. IMO it is unsafe to travel in the us right now compared to how it used to be. Again IMO why would I take the chance if I don’t need to. Also I do not travel anywhere anymore as I am old and do not feel safe pretty much anywhere these days compared to travel in the past due to either age or times.

    Of course it's more unsafe to travel to US then it used to be. For a white person it used to be 1/10 and not it's 2/10. I really don't know why you're trying to debate something I never said.
