It would appear I read more into your original statement than you intended, and for that I apologise.
As one who is a regular traveller I consider myself an honest, honourable person, and was just a little put out to think that I would be viewed with distrust by locals. It seems you were referring to the location and not the people, my mistake.
And I am sorry for your loss, I understand you were only trying to make people aware of what can happen in the heat of the moment.
