I strongly urge people to adopt a policy of using prepared queries except when
absolutely necessary. If all user-provided data is passed to the database as
parameters to a prepared query then you should never need to worry about SQL
injection.
It's possible to always quote your parameters before inserting them into the
query but it's much more error-prone. It's also much harder to look at a piece
of code and be sure it's correct. If you religiously use prepared queries then
any variables interpolated directly into the query stand out like sore thumbs.
