How safe do you feel in the country you live in?

So it sounds like you feel the area where you live is pretty safe. That is a good thing. I like the little guy with the toothbrush. Are you a dentist?

Ohhhh! Well, if you keep brushing like the avatar you shouldn't have any more teeth problem:)

i dont like dentists coz they pull out 4 of my teeth n then iv to uz braces 4 a year

Yes, I understand what you are saying. There isn't a place that is totally secure.

For sure. Have a blessed day, and we will just have to hope for the best and pray.

Well, parts of it, anyway. Where I lived there was very safe too, but I have been to areas that made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.

I also don't venture too much in the evenings. Crime rates seem to go up when it is dark outside.

You are right. Rural areas tend to be safer because of lower crime rates and also the fact that they usually are not international targets of terrorism.

Really! One hundred percent safe; you are so confident. I once worked with a man, a manager at my place of employment, that was from Nigeria. He was a very nice gentleman.

Are you saying that is not very many or it is a lot. That seems like a lot of murders to meand I would think you really have to watch your back. It it for robbery or other things?

That is the way I felt when I was in the U.S. I lived out in the country from Fayetteville, Arkansas and there was just nothing major there to be concerned about. I felt fairly safe here in Nicaragua until they had their presidential election a week ago today. They elected Ortega after having a civil war when he was in power before. The day after he was elected some people began illegally moving onto other people's property and trying to take it over because he not only allowed that before he participated in it by giving other people's property to people he owed favors to or "just because he could". He says he will not do that this time. So now my rating of being safe here has gone down to about a 5. I have had people ask me if I wasn't afraid that his people would kill me since he doesn't particulartly like Americans. So far, I don't think that is going to happen. He says that he has changed. I believe that God will keep me safe. I have too much to lose to just pull up stakes and leave so I am going to stay.

Yes, I feel it is better to live your life and not worry all the time. I agree that when it is my time to die then I will, but if it is not my time then I will live a little longer.

So Portugal sounds like a pretty safe place to live. Everybody has the need to feel safe where they live.

Yes, I think Australia sounds like a peaceful place to live. Thank you for responding.

Wow! Italy. That is one of the places I have always wanted to visit and it sounds like a pretty safe place. Thank you for your response.

If security can keep you safe then the U.S. should be fairly safe because there is lots of security.

It is good to hear that where you live is pretty safe. As you say, a car crash can get you anywhere you live. Thank you for your comments.
