I don’t mean to belittle your concerns but what is it you’re actually worried about? Have I missed something? If it’s the chants at the rally, surely it’s a verbal attack on particular politicians? Or has something else happened that I’ve missed?

No wonder some people worry about posting at times - Universal VR, I don’t watch the news much so also ‘am missing something’

Universal VR - Sorry I deleted my post as I try not to get involved in politics on this forum but to say it is just a comment at a rally about one politician is misguided and shows no understanding of what is happening in the USA at the moment. That is what I meant by my comment that you have missed something.

If I understood UniversalVR she was asking if it was something else ie she didn't know? I'm in the same boat to be honest, I don't know what the OP has seen or read to make them think of cancelling their trip.

I don't believe Universal VR was being rude but was seeking clarification, and in all honesty I didn't understand why the op was even considering cancelling their holiday many months away. If someone asks for opinions on here it is reasonable that people ask questions for clarity, or give them opinions which aren't always covered in pixie dust.

Perhaps there is a good reason why the op is concerned, and for all we know they might wear a burka and feel more vunerable walking around Orlando in view of Trump's silly comments?

I agree. Whilst the situation is most definitely more than just verbal abuse at a rally, I still can’t work out why it would mean cancelling at holiday.

No, I know she wasn’t being rude at all. My comment was in reference to one that’s been deleted now.

I’m not trying to be rude - honestly! But maybe if some posters did watch the news and put the chants at the rally into context they might just understand where the OP is coming from.
I certainly do, so much so that I remarked to my DH today that our next trip may be our last for a while and not because I have concerns for our personal safety.

I understand the concerns the OP has, however there are many countries you could voice worries over for one reason or another.
Everyone has the right to express how they feel with their feet and boycott countries for personal reasons but I wouldn’t feel that safety would be a direct concern.
