All the rest have to do with law enforcement or military, and are hazardous by nature.

Country:  | When I was back in the states the last time I was watching that show about the crab fishing. It was called "The most dangerous Catch" I think. It was quite interesting.

Country: | I did not think it was that bad in DC. Me and my wife never had a problem walking around at night or anything. We probably did not go into the bad parts I guess but whereever we went it was extremely friendly and we never felt unsafe.
