The beach had signs to stay off the beach at night because of muggers. Every time I have travelled outside the U.S., I have experienced substandard facilities and unsafe conditions, and I was always happy to get home. And, I don't trust cruise lines to be transparent about safety issues. I plan to stay in this country.

Ok...but you just named several other countries in different continents in this response. Your original comment was about one. If this one is your point, you might not want to go to Orlando, NYC or other US destinations either....crime is going on in those places as well and across the nation daily. Nobody questioned your choice to restrict your travels to TV proper so I don’t see the need for you to ask why others would want to do otherwise
