[Ponte Alto] Re:Saftey after dark

[Isaac Rothstein]

I would like to start by saying I apologise if there is any confusion 
about the intent of my previous comment and would like to provide some 
clarity.  I am aware that Lady Bianca has no intention of levelling 
accusations at anyone, and she is right that she and I fall on the same 
side of this arguement.

If the tone of my last post sounded defensive it was because my 
definition of "playing in the SCA" means to participate in it's 
activities (i.e. fighting, brewing, sewing...) but doesn't extend to the 
ethics of the society as they were to me, a given.  I was concerned, and 
perhaps overly so that a little difference in interpretation could be 
used as a weapon by someone with maliceous intent.  And as I've been on 
the receiving end of scapegoating on more than one occasion, I thought 
to put in a good word on our behalf prior to any such occurance.

To answer Lady Bianca's question:  I think the best course of action is 
for us to educate new members and remind existing ones that it isn't 
now, nor has it ever been safe to wander at night alone. 

And again I apologize for any confusion,

Isaac
