“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin." Need I say more?” - Chris Rock

Venezuela - Caracas is extremely dangerous. I see a leftist influence in a list that treats Colombia as more dangerous than Venezuela.
Haiti is less dangerous than India? I don't think so.

While there's beauty here an there, across the globe, there's really no place like the Good ole USofA, for diverse, natural beauty across the entire nation.

Really?
The problem with articles such as this, is for the sake of garnering a few quick page views, the authors do not research they subject they are writing about, rather rely on some preconceived notions. The article says India "is mostly known as one of the most dangerous countries for women." The statistics say that India is one of the safest countries for women. The rate of rapes in India is 1.8 per 100,000, in the US it is 27 per 100,000 and in South Africa it is 54 per 100,000 etc. You can check these statistics, for example from Nation Master. Yet India is included, whereas the US and South Africa are not???
Also you hear about suicide bombings in Pakistan all the time, where Shias and others are targeted by the Pakistani Taliban. Just a couple of days ago there was a suicide bombing in the Wagah border that killed 45 Pakistanis. Nothing of this sort happens regularly in India (with a notable of the Mumbai attacks carried out by terrorists from Pakistan). Once again, this article mentions India but not Pakistan. Quite absurd really.
