  My 2 cents on the issue.  When you are in a 'good' area of a given city i.e.
Paris, and your rental car is broken into and your gear stolen while on your
way to photograph something, like say, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, you will get a
bad taste for the city.  Could it happen anywhere?  Possibly.  Would the local
shopkeepers and people walking by call the police while the crooks are prying
open the doors and trunk?  One would hope so though they didn't there.
  Having traveled the world with no problems, this city will stand out in a
negative way and has an impact on returning.
  As I said, my 2 cents on the issue.
