The security at CityWalk is also top notch. I've never had a safety concern at either. I think we all agree with that.<br /><br />Not so downtown Orlando. There have been way too many robberies, way too many shootings in downtown Orlando to not be concerned about it. I go downtown often but my eyes are wide open. There most certainly is a difference between downtown Orlando and PI/CW. And there are downtown clubs that frisk people out of necessity; I was just frisked going into a downtown club this past Saturday night.<br /><br />I'm not turning this into the anti-U.S. crusade you're making this out to be. I was merely pointing out that the risk of violent crime is much higher in the U.S. than in Europe. And that's a fact, Jack.KingBobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900984237451420547.post-3080643488762638352012-08-15T18:36:16.395-04:002012-08-15T18:36:16.395-04:00"After much research and knowing my company h..."After much research and knowing my company had my back, I decided it was worth whatever risk was involved to venture out. This reporter laughs in the face of danger for the Save PI Blog! At Central Station gates greet you just off the main sidewalk with security cameras and a buzz required to get through the gate."<br /><br />Is Thommy this apprehensive when he ventures out to City Walk, PI or Orlando? Does he have to get frisked to go in an Orlando club? Has Thommy ever been robbed or shot for his Iphone in orlando?<br /><br />Obviously he hasn't been shot. Seems like a situation where you need to use some common sense with what clubs you go in. <br /><br />NO matter where they are..... If the club looks like a prison your probably going to get robbed, if it looks like a hang out for thugs you might get shot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900984237451420547.post-41523538196568662382012-08-15T17:58:11.877-04:002012-08-15T17:58:11.877-04:00Really Bob, guy goes to Moscow gets robbed so we h...Really Bob, guy goes to Moscow gets robbed so we have to point the finger at the US. How many times have you been pick pocketed/robbed while going to what would appear to be hundreds of clubs each year? I have been reading your blog for years now and I have never heard you say you have been. I for sure know you haven't been shot for your iphone or your camera you take with you to the clubs.<br /><br />So why turn around and point the finger at the very clubs you are trying to promote? Are the places you are visiting that dangerous, maybe I shouldn't be following your club suggestions.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900984237451420547.post-24953108937547085332012-08-15T15:13:03.056-04:002012-08-15T15:13:03.056-04:00Anon at 8:33pm, I think YOU'VE kind of missed ...Anon at 8:33pm, I think YOU'VE kind of missed the point. Among First-World countries, the United States has the higest violent crime rate. Most of Europe is made up of First-World countries. That was my point. <br /><br />Russia is considered to be a Second-World country. But even there, the worst crime you're likely to encounter is the pick-pocket. If you encounter crime in downtown Orlando, it won't be a pick-pocket. It will be worse.KingBobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900984237451420547.post-34266919941020207572012-08-14T20:33:25.919-04:002012-08-14T20:33:25.919-04:00Wow man you totally miss the point.

People do get shot in Moscow nightclubs, European nightclubs, and US nightclubs. <br /><br />I could drag up article after article, heck France just had people shot at a nightclub, but thats not the point. The point is that violence happens everywhere and the Moscow artilce shows that they are not immune to nightclub shootings as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900984237451420547.post-28337408567389439582012-08-14T19:30:07.906-04:002012-08-14T19:30:07.906-04:00http://www.wftv.com/news/news/police-investigate-t...http://www.wftv.com/news/news/police-investigate-two-overnight-fatal-shootings-o/nPXDm/<br /><br />Only have to go back 2 months to find a nightclub shooting in Orlando; you had to dig back nearly a year to find one in Moscow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900984237451420547.post-46369419565048035352012-08-14T19:24:12.041-04:002012-08-14T19:24:12.041-04:00http://en.rian.ru/crime/20111126/169041955.html
