Orange Hat Patrols are out. Blogger patrols are in. Borderstan has announced that it will be hosting the "Borderstan Night-Safety Walk Around" this Thursday with plenty of law enforcement types on hand: "Join police and city government staff for a quick walk around Borderstan. The purpose is to point out dark areas that need lighting, burned out street lights, overgrown trees, etc. The goal is to improve night safety in Borderstan through better lighting and visibility."

Walk starts at 6. "The group will leave 15th and T NW at 6 p.m. and proceed south," the blog notes.
