Thanks for the clarification of the story.? But if I understand the essence of the analysis by you, Karen, et al, the point was worthy of public airing even though I don't disagree that it was civil to raise the issue privately.? Also, there are lots of police personnel with business cards.? I wouldn't be surprised if it were difficult to get one with a weird, non PPD work location and number, however.

But, after the meeting, in private, since the point was relevant to his personal conduct and not to the meeting or to the safety and security issues he formally addressed (doing so?in the role of?a Philadelphia police officer and not as a UCD staff member). I asked him (lame answer -- the Police Dept doesn't give us any of our own). And I criticized his use of the cards?to his face. In doing so, I?pointed out the implication and advised him to cease using them on his own because I was going to lodge a formal complaint with the city (through Councilwoman Blackwell), and were she to?take action, he'd come off "cleaner" if he could say he didn't realize the implications and stopped using them as soon as the issue was pointed out to him by one of the solid citizens. ? Enquiring minds want to know... and now they do. ?
