Sorry but there are enough incidents coming out of UAE and the arab world (KSA), where it seems easy to run afoul of the law (alcohol, drugs, sex/rape, religion) and end up in big trouble You go after India but don’t reveal what country you hail from though. The US is so big though that it’s impractical to make such a blanket statement. There are mosques in every big city- no one seems to be opressed because of their religious views. You will never be judged for offending a deity or the government. |

I guess I would say there are other cultures in the world centered around other belief systems (not always religious) that are impossible to grasp as an outsider. As somebody who has lived in both KSA and UAE for a long time, I can tell you that people from the UAE are the most generous, kind, and honestly classy people you will come across (something that is not accounted for when generalizing them as a barbaric people like many do in this post)
I have never seen an Emirati as much as yell at somebody in the streets. Happiness of citizens is actively discussed and worked on, on a government level. Seeing the police makes me feel safe, not threatened.
Maybe that’s why there are so many expatriates there.
You should totally visit. It’s an amazing place.
