Interestingly, Vegas is also the tourist location (or even just city visited) that I felt by far the safest in. The reputation was, at least in the now years-back era when I was visiting several times, that it was a city where the thugs knew to leave the tourists alone or face the wrath of an angry police force & one where even cab drivers knew that if they shot a perp in action they'd be hailed as heroes rather than getting charged.
