When you travel to other countries you take your life in your hands

It's important to understand this when you travel. You are NOT in the U.S. with all the benefits of living here. You may have no rights at all (even to stay alive) in foreign countries. You could be killed or raped or tortured in many countries around the world simply because you are an American.

This most easily would happen places like countries in the Middle east but could also happen in Africa, South America or Asia or other places around the world like Russia or China.

For example, even Chinese people (unless they are rich and members of the ruling Communist party) have no rights to even be alive in China right now. For example, people have been separated from their savings in China in the country for up to 1 year already in many cases. Whereas SVB in California was bailed out by the U.S. government in 3 days.

So, when you travel outside the U.S. just remember you can die, be raped, or tortured or anything else could happen to you if you don't know what you are doing or aren't prepared for what is happening. Just like what is happening to Americans in Sudan too and likely many will not survive what is happening there. This is just what it is like to travel the world to unstable places. It the reality of the real world.
