Room security checks

[Lilofan]

No, *security* worked at Disney Springs. There is real security at Disney Springs and it has helped deter criminals. No one is suggesting that all security is security theater or that no security measures should be taken. But this room check policy, as it is presently implemented, is definitely security theater. Motivated primarily, I suspect, by a desire to avoid lawsuits than a real belief in its benefit.

Disney Springs get all walks of life especially at night. Many years ago during the crazy drunken Pleasure Island nightclubs times, Security was also a huge presence. Free parking is a plus to draw in the crowds. The Orange County jail ( aka Disney jail) is right down the road across the street from Saratoga Springs. I met some people a few years ago that stayed at Saratoga and they said they were warned on a rash of thefts in the resort and to keep their patio doors locked. They were advised that the bad element may have come from nearby Disney Springs who can just walk right into the Saratoga area.
