To make a point about proposed club regulations, The Stranger's editor, Dan Savage, walked into Seattle's City Hall carrying pot cookies and a fake gun. Seattle Weekly Staff Writer Philip Dawdy argues that Savage went too far because he used his press credentials to take the illicit materials into restricted areas of the building. In a post on The Daily Weekly, SW's blog, Dawdy notes that the Seattle press, including The Stranger, has fought to maintain access to offices in City Hall in the past; now, Savage's actions could "make the security folks at City Hall rethink who gets to go where and under what circumstances," he writes.
