      Well, the Abha area was pretty nice, weatherwise, but it was still KSA! Dubai is more tolerant including alcohol being legal for non-Muslim foreigners [but your OTC cough medicine could land you in prison]. Saudi Arabia, has the Princes living it up while keeping others down [there was piano crate bound for a prince that dropped, reeking of alcohol, guess what happened to the prince, nada ].
      I am appalled that our militant Christian fascists are just as hypocritical as Saudi Princes, and would be just as bad if they got the same kind of power, like laws controlling the people's bedrooms!

    Hurts my heart to hear that New Mexico is worst for violent crime. I visited for a few weeks, doing a private study of climatic architectural methods & styles during the '90s and stayed in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Taos. I loved every day of my time there, apart from a bit of altitude sickness in Taos. At no time did I ever feel unsafe or any sense of forbidding.

    • @brucekrause2801

      There is no place in America like New Mexico, maybe this negative publicity is good, because our population isn't growing like Az, Tx. I absolutely love NM, will never leave. I've also never commited a crime nor been a victim of one. I have in Florida though, a horrendous place to live

    • @friendly-nemesis4754
      @friendly-nemesis4754 26 дней назад +10

      This is the fundamental problem with assessing states by their aggregate statistics; Santa Fe and Taos contribute essentially nothing to New Mexico's reputation for crime, and even Albuquerque's crime data is more than a bit misleading; the bad parts in and around the South Valley are real trouble, but there are vast swaths of the city that are as safe as you could wish. One thing that definitely brings the state average down in terms of both crime and poverty are the reservation territories on the northwest side of the state; a higher percentage of the population of New Mexico is aboriginal than in any of the other lower 48, and the tribal reservation communities there are dirt-poor and riddled with (often drug-and/or-alcohol-fueled) crime. As bad as the worst areas of New Mexico are, their impact simply isn't very far-reaching, and they shouldn't be taken as an indictment of even the majority of the state, much less all of it.

    I like how you mentioned in Washington, it's the case of one bad city bringing everybody down but didn't bother to mention that it's Tacoma. Everett is no prize either, but the video seemed to imply Seattle...while it's gone downhill for sure over the years, it's not the worst. A quick Google search told me the violent crime rate in Seattle was 736/100k a couple years ago which surprised me, BUT...recent figures for Tacoma came in far, far worse. 1610/100k.

      Small rivers bordering on creeks and creeks are the worst. Lived in central Texas for many years. 3 floods I experienced directly by having stuff affected, and every one of these were near a creek (think the Steve Ray Vaughan and his first album title from the '81 Memorial Day floods for me it was Shoal Creek). Am in WA now and agree Seattle area is getting worse, lived up here for near 20 years and the last 3 have been insane. A more in depth dive into each of these states and where they have ranked before would be nice, but I understand the amount of time people are willing to give up on a RUclips video.

    Briggs, I'm a long time CA'ian. Just a little footnote Tijuana Mexico used to be the gateway to Baja and great tourist attraction for visitors to San Diego. Tijuana this year has 700 murders for 2024. The U.S. state dept has declared it a "dangerous tourist destination" the drug, gun, human trafficking are beyond epidemic levels.

      I lived in Tijuana for five years, and i felt pretty safe even though my neighborhood, Colonia Libertad, was considered to be the most dangerous. Most of the crime is cartel related, and they don't like harming foreigners because they know it would be bad for them.

      I suppose you say that because Texas and Florida are large and populous states. I have lived in Florida all of my life. Despite our crazy reputation, I have rarely felt unsafe here.
      Briggs' statistics do not lie. Sure, like most major urban areas, we have our problem cities such as Miami, Jacksonville etc. But most of our counties' law enforcement agencies and prosecutors are tough on crime. Gov. DeSantis is a big supporter of law enforcement and sees it as an essential public service. We have strong self-defense and property rights laws and citizens are allowed to legally carry firearms for self-protection.
      From what I can tell. Texas doesn't (and has never) mess around either,
      There has to be a correlation.
      Ok, Florida and DeSantis haters, it's your turn to chime in.

      He's doing it per 100k people. Since NY has 19+ million people and NYC has 8+ million, plus another 2-4 million commute daily from the metro area like NJ and CT, plus tourists, the number of crime victims is relatively low compared to the population size.
      You also hear about NY crime more because of the larger population, the major news/entertainment outlets are here, plus it's the financial capital of the country...if not the world.
      For example, you might hear about an attack in the subway making national news, but 3+ million people take the subway daily (and another 1.4 million take buses daily). So you have a 1 in 3 to 5 million chance getting attacked!! Doesn't sound that high now. You have a much higher chance getting into a deadly car accident.

    Legalizing drugs may not have been so bad if it wasn't for the way it was done.
    Alcohol is legal pretty much everywhere. Being blotto drunk in public is not. But doing drugs in public was allowed. Not just being high in public, but actually shooting up drugs in public was OK. That's the beginning of the failure right there. Then, when you spend all your money on drugs and end up homeless, that was allowed too. Just set up a tent as close to your dealer as you can get. If they approached legal drug use the way they did alcohol use, maybe it wouldn't have been the disaster it turned into. Legal to do, but in private, not in public. and if it is getting you in trouble, intervene with mandatory counciling, the way they do with alcohol use.
    I can't help thinking it was set up this way on purpose. This way, they can say they did what the public wanted, and it didn't work, then use that as an excuse to take more control of everything, and everyone.
