Thanks for the attempt to talk me out of my "funk". I do understand about people keeping an eye on things and reporting in things that might make us suspect someone is a terrorist or a child abuctor. I am all for that. But whenever the next Tyrant takes over, these same "programs" will - can be used - to give the Tyrant "tips" on people who are doing anti-Democratic party thingies - etc. It just makes me nervous...and it seems like every proposal is coming from the Commie Chinese handbook.

But, I will try to cool it.

I don't think this is that different from what people do everyday. Doesn't everyone have a neighbor who seems to know everybodies business? It seems like alot of people will see somebody doing something they know is illegal, but will turn the other cheek, think that it is not important, or just don't want to get involved.

Personally, I watch all my neighbors and assume they are drug dealers until proven otherwise. My husband and I are convinced that we are going to see one of our neighbors on America's Most Wanted someday. We don't live in a bad neighborhood or anything, but I am keeping my eyes on everybody just in case.
