> And it would have all never happened had they just locked their doors to begin with. This is an attitude that ruins communities. As a nonscholarly example, I like to run ~5 in the morning. Sometimes, something is off in my pre-run snack and I have to go to the bathroom. For a long time, public bathrooms along the esplanade in Boston would be unlocked at all hours. In modern times, due to attitudes like yours, they get locked at 8 PM and unlocked around 8 AM. So, there are no longer public bathrooms available for me to use, just because I like to run before work. (On a side note, I've talked to other runners who have the same issue. Some of them have been put in situations where physical necessity resulted in taking a dump right outside the door of a closed public bathroom. I'm quite sure this was not the intention of locking these doors) Another case is the Harvard library. You are required to have a Harvard id to enter the library. This is in stark contrast to what makes libraries hugely valuable to other communities. I've regularly had collaborations with Harvard that didn't rise to the point where I obtained a Harvard id, so I would need to drag my host along to the library to quickly look up some material in a book. It is incredibly frustrating. Tightened security spends a vast majority of its time quelling desired behavior while spending very little time actually disrupting undesired behavior.
