I agree, I'm on my 5th trip to Brazil this year, in Rio right now. It has to be one of the beautiful, vibrant, colorful cities I have ever been to. I really don't find the negative press and comments just. In SF we have tourist robbed and killed, a recent one was caught on camera, an Asian Tourist was robbed and fatally stabbed in the head. Last year a tourists was killed in Golden Gate Park. Additionally, if you go out at night pick pockets in clubs is common, I've been a victim several times in clubs in SOMA.
