You always feel like you are being watched even if you “believe” you are doing nothing wrong.

What you "believe" or "feel" has nothing whatsoever to do with the law. The law is the law. Only liberals think what they "feel" trumps facts.

My point is that nobody really knows all the laws. as one poster here said in another thread:

“I used to know an Assistant US Attorney for the Southern District of New York. He told me that on his first day on the job, the US Attorney called him into his office and told him to look out the window. Below was a park and dozens of people were walking around. The US Attorney told my friend, ‘You see everyone in that park? They have all committed a federal crime. Your job is to decide who to prosecute.’”

I have believed that general concept since high school civics (1971). The way I worded it was that “if you are walking down the street, you are breaking a law. If “they” really want you, they will get you. The idea is to either not get too powerful, or have powerful friends when you do.
