That is not a distinction we make now: at present, there are locations we
avoid at least in part because they are not as safe as the locations to
which we presently go. I think it would be highly reasonable, and I would
support, a policy that the IETF does not go to any venue where concealed or
open carry is legal, or where controls on the purchase of weapons were not
adequately controlled.
I say this based on the fact that the thing I worry about most in terms of
random mayhem _is_ in fact that there will be some kind of random gun
violence while I or Andrea are out and about. This has become a matter of
increasing concern over time. It is a different topic than the Singapore
topic, but let us not pretend that there are not IETFers who have this as a
serious concern.
