Stupid shit in Medellin

[MarquisdeSade1]

Maybe I've been lucky. My first trip to Medellin was in November, 2010, and I've been there 50 times since then. I travel alone most of the time. I've never been robbed, shaken down by the police, given scopolamine, or gotten an STD. A fake policeman tried to shake me down one time, and an "acquaintance" tried it one time. Both times I walked away from them when I realized what was happening. I am old and very white. I have been to Costa Rica and Nicaragua. I feel safer in Medellin than either of those countries.

Ofbourse the crime level depends on the type of crime. Tourists are far more likely to suffer from theft than anything else.

I'm guessing everyone is more likely to suffer from theft than anything else, except when they are not.

I think stats show that Latin America is clearly thee most dangerous region of the world hands down (not in an active military conflict) 24/7 365!

Most of Central America esp Mexico, Caracas, Brasil et al.

I can link several dozen decap videos if it is allowed, if you want.

Just sayin.

Now that I think about it. Maybe it is a little more dangerous there in Medellin than at McDonalds in Beverly Hills. My bad.

Drugging's are probably the biggest concern in Medellin. Below is some statistical data. There's also been a number of recent related deaths, and there's plenty of anecdotal reports here in the forum. Watch your drinks and don't accept any liquids from strangers. If you accidentally leave your drink unattended toss it. Be on top of your game. Don't get drunk. The latest death BTW was of an American but of Nicaraguan origins. Yes Colombians not only drug tourists but one another as well. This is all simply common knowledge on the ground. Ask any Colombian.

Also watch out for two men on a motorcycle, a common MO. The one on the back will display a firearm. Obviously cooperation is the best response if confronted.

All that said, with some precautions and a little luck, chances are your Medellin trip will go well. Be safe out there and enjoy.

P.S. As to crime rates around the world, neither the US or Colombia are in the top ten. Out of 137 countries measured Colombia comes in at 31, and the US at 56.

Once again. Never had any problem in Medellin. I don't post on this site much but if you look at other sites, I post a lot. I have been coming to Colombia a lot. It along with Cuba (which has the lowest crime rate in the world BTW) along with Colombia and Mexico have been weekend trips for prob the last 15 years. I have also spent time in the Brazilian favelas, by myself at all times of night and in San Salvador multiple times at all times of night by myself with zero issues at all!! Oh ya. Have been to Yemen and Syria too, maybe you have heard of them? And no not in a military aspect. Again, never any problems. However, I can give you a lot of issues that I have had in the USA, primarily based on race. As you even said that drugging happens when people are dumbasses. As long as you aren't a dumbass it is much safer there than in the USA. Both San Salvador and the favelas are considerably more dangerous, in data, than Colombia or anywhere else we have mentioned. And don't even mention Syria and Yemen. Go walk around at night in Gary (Indiana), East St. Louis, West Memphis, Oak Cliff (Dallas), etc. All four of those places are more dangerous than Colombia. Maybe you should know someone's background before you start trying to bash them. Go to those four other international places and those areas In the USA at night walking around and then you can come back and try to tell me how dangerous Colombia is.

Well, I just checked out your posting history and you are a useless twat.

Little man syndrome. You can call names. But you live in fear of safe places all over the world. Idiot!! Maybe check some reviews around. Go back and play with your mommy in the sandbox.

Nice summary. Sometimes keeping it short and sweet is the way to go.

Of course crime rates can vary a lot from city to city, and this is especially true in the states. Some of the travelers from Europe will be coming from countries with much lower crime rates than either of the above.

Good for you! You have visited one place! Yawn. And I have seen no good information from you better than what I have already put on here. I would say that is very useful information when people are fear mongers on here trying to scare people with lies and falsities! They should know that it is ultra safe being here for any reason! And. You don't need any other information from me since you supposed know all there is to know about Medellin. You don't need my help. But I did enjoy 15 ladies during my week in Medellin and Cartagena. Zero issues, except by a group of Americans. Which is always the case. There is a reason why people don't like American tourists. And a reason I try to go where there are very few of them. Anyway, I could give you information on where all I met them, but you are know it all, so you already know!

Thanks for the additional anecdotes peppered with exclamation marks, all essentially worthless. As was your discussions of safety in the US, as such has nothing to do with safety or the lack thereof Medellin. These are two different countries in case you failed to notice. It also appears from your post history that you are very new to the Medellin scene. I'm going to address Medellin safety in a separate post and the readers can decide what are the "falscities (sic) and lies." It's also worth noting that a number of members on this thread experienced with Medellin share my point of view, as the points are hardly debatable, among Colombians and tourists alike. It's simply common knowledge.

That would be quite the erroneous assumption. I spend three to four months a year in Medellin, and have a number of on the ground and experience related reports here. But since you travel a lot, we look forward to your contributions from Medellin, and something besides the sweeping claim that the US is the most dangerous place of the six continents you've been on. That's not very useful. Lolol.

Assuming you don't travel much.
