[Prudence]

And that's the problem with Pioneer Square. People go there to take advantage of the joint cover and wander about getting as drunk as possible. Which makes a large portion of the crowd down there very unpredictable. Normally it's mostly okay, but the volatility of drunken revelers, gang bangers, drugged out bums, and whatnot means that when something goes wrong it can REALLY go wrong. (Take the Christopher Kime beating death, for example.)
