also reported in today's dp (top story on front page), followed by the usual anonymous online comments from people posing as penn parents/alums... http://tinyurl.com/2omp5r I missed that ... but have added it at _www.nonid.blogspot.com_ (http://www.nonid.blogspot.com) for anyone who wants to see all four stories and their different 'takes' on the matter. To Katie Karas' and the DP's credit, they raised the question of whether there would be an "investigation of police conduct" and noted "there were no reports of an argument or fight inside the club before the shooting began... There was really no altercation." The police and private security presence in this neighborhood is overwhelming. Everyone knows (or should know) what Benjamin Franklin said about this: "Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." And despite the Safety Ambassadors, the Penn Security people, the Penn Police, what Wendell Lewis refers to as the UCD police, and the regular Philadelphia Police -- we don't seem to be getting much by way of "temporary safety."
