There were several police officers wounded or killed yesterday on the street pictured
in the second photo.
It is a busy main drag in one of the world's great cities.
The upper photo is one I took of an equally busy place where no police were hurt yesterday.
My point is that every city, these days, has violence and every city has a place of peace.
We do not allow the potential for harm keep us from experiencing
the wonders of these places - be they Paris, Madrid or San Francisco.
If we are afraid - rather than realistically cautious - the bad guys have won.
