In yesterday’s Outlook section, Houston Downtown Management District President Bob Eury sang the praises of the George R. Brown Convention Center as it turns 20.

Toward the end of the op-ed he added this:

Downtown is the safest sector of the city, but our guests must share that perception.

If downtown is the safest part of Houston, why were surveillance cameras installed? Mayor White said the cameras were needed to keep citizens safe.

If visitors don’t share the perception that downtown is safe, maybe it’s because they have reason to think it’s not.
