We had to work with a K & R firm once to negotiate the return of this businessman who went nature hiking in heart of a battle zone of guerillas shooting at goverment troops and then some mercenary para military dudes waiting to shoot up what was left. The people there seem allot like the Isrealis I have worked with, danger all around and they're asking where the party is??!
Stay in the urban cities is what we were told. Same goes for Brazil, big kidnapping problem over there too.

Oh come on, this is a joke? There are "some" bad areas here but most of the place is perfectly safe. You just got to know where to go and where not to go. Ya, hiking in the hot zone would be dumb but there are other areas that are just as safe as anywhere in the US.
Would you tell someone not to go to NYC due to the terrorists attacks? Watch out for people like Timothy McVeigh before coming to the US? And lets all remember not to drive down I90 due to the snipers.
