That is an interesting and valid question. I do feel safe in Bali, but sometimes see people put themsleves at risk, usually because of too much alcohol. Some people, affected by alcohol, can be aggresive, refuse to pay restaurant bills, touch woman who don't want to be touched and place themselves at risk in night clubs. In other words do things that can lead to trouble anywhere in the world. Similarly people can put themselves at risk buying drugs on the street or abusing people who are trying to sell them things.
It is all a matter of being a little bit sensible and treating others with respect.
That was a bit of a sermon, but if you go with the flow, it is a safe, relaxing and happy place to visit.
