Hey Fastlaners,
This particular question is specifically for the U.S. citizens on the forum. However, if any non-U.S. forum members want to chime in, I'd love to hear your insight, as well
:
Do you feel the world has become a more dangerous place for Americans traveling abroad?
Unfortunately, I have not been outside the country since 1998 so I don't feel qualified to answer the question in light of the security measures put in place after 9/11.
Some context.
I was listening to a radio show earlier today and the discussion turned to the current crop of presidential candidates and whether their respective foreign policy ideas and/or experience was sufficient enough to occupy the Oval Office.
The thinking was that the "American People" - I've always hated that phrase. It sounds so..."other" - will not care about individual qualities and outlooks, as much as they're concerned with the macro issues; national security being chief among them.
At the news story's conclusion I thought of this forum, immediately. The international scope of this community, coupled with the intrepid nature of its members made the decision of asking the above question, here, a no-brainer.
@MJ DeMarco, @Vigilante, @AllenCrawley, etc. if this thread is in the wrong location or is out of line, you know what to do and no disrespect meant.
Kindest Regards,
Anthony aka Chitown
