Never. And anyway, I'd rather they "plus" the countries that are there (Rhine River Cruise, anyone?)
However, I would vastly prefer a revitalized Imagination pavilion to any WS additions.

Agreed. Orlando is a paradise compared to Newark, Irvington, Camden, Trenton, Paterson, just a few cities off the top of my head just in NJ.
Way to hate on Jersey :lol:

from CNNMONEY..
Personal crime/ property crime/
Incidents per 1000 incidents per 1000
Orlando 19 84
average top
100 cities 1 19
yeah I would say the percentage is more then average.. by 19 to 1..
that's fairly dangerous..
oh and this is from Cnn Money.. the best places to live in the country..

I voted for 10 years but I think that's pretty optimistic. I'd like to see Ireland, Brazil, Thailand or Egypt. But truthfully, I would be surprised if I ever saw a change. I think FW is probably the most likely and most effective area to get major additions in EPCOT and I can't even see any major changes coming there in the near future.

You're right. It's not like CNN Money is a national news outlet or anything.[/B]
Thats a great source I am sure it is very accurate.
How about:
Of course they are just the FBI, what do they know?
And just to stay on topic, I don't think we are going to see another country in the World Showcase, ever.

according to the FBI's 2009 figures Orlando is now down to 24th most dangerous in the country.
Behind Newark, Camden , Trenton ,loving the Jersey, I guess it ddoesn't seem that bad cause we're used to it.
Oh, WS, 10 years if we're lucky but doubt it, still holding out for India. The world's largest democracy, and by 2025 overtaking China for most populous.

I'm not sure here. I doubt we'll see a new country in the next five years at least, although their may be some plussing to the existing countries (I'm not sure how much room is left in any individual country). The other thing is that, if some other countries are added, eventually World Showcase will run out of room. I'm not sure how many expansion pads, if any, are left. Attractions can be replaced in other parks and in Future World, but imagine an announcement that, say, Dubai would be replacing Germany (just picked those countries at random). That would be a PR nightmare. Therefore I would say that perhaps I don't mind if we wait a while for some new countries, because at some point, there won't be a chance for any more.

I voted for 10 years and I'm adding a + to that. There has been no news or visions of a planned addition besides the new restaurants being built in Mexico and in Italy so 5 years seems improbable and as for never I don't believe that a new country being built is impossible so 10 to 20 years sounds like a good resonable medium.
But it is coming from the guy who thinks King Louie was part of JC!

OMG!!! I just had my gut-busting laugh for the evening!!! As a resident of "the Orlando area", I can tell you there are much, MUCH more dangerous places in our country. LOL!!! Some people.
But he saw it on TV it must be true!

I thought WDW was located within Lake Buena Vista, FL not Orlando .. but I could be wrong.
Also, ooh a lot of personal crime, that usually happens in wealthier/safer areas. Gambling, fraud, embezzlement, and all other sorts of "White-Collar" crime. Everyone bar your windows and pull the drapes you might get caught for illegal gambling.

So? I provided another source as well.
If we train a monkey to tell you water is wet, would you not believe him just because he was a monkey?
Orlando is not the most dangerous place in the country, but it by far the safest.
However, WDW is located in Lake Buena Vista. You can't really extrapolate Orlando's crime rate to the safety of the immeadiate area surrounding WDW as most statistics involve the city limits as their border.
