“I think it depends on the situation. They have to weigh the situation and weigh what’s going on in the city.”

“I feel like it’s over-exposure and a waste of time. Celebrity-wise it’s preferential treatment. There’s a lot more the police could be doing.”
— Maurice Hill, Mitchellville, Md., security specialist
“If the locality has rules and regulations to follow, I’m OK with that.”

“I don’t think a police escort is ever appropriate. It causes unnecessary traffic. To me celebrities are real people, too, who don’t need an escort.”
