You throw out any form of "big brother" simply because of some if it's traits rather than come up with variants to make it better. Very contstructive. NOT.

Innovation needs input from people like you, who see the flaws as flaws and not flaws as walls. You build these walls of your own problem of being MORE afraid of the system taking over our lives, rather then an adaption of it to help others.

Those who support more big brother are not naive to think of it as a panacea of solving all of our problems. We see it as evolution, to be adapted and corrected to give us the best we can. Will it stop my son from being murdered. Maybe, maybe not BUT will it stop my sons murderer from murdering someone else? Maybe, maybe not. But any chance of someone like that being caught - within some framework around CCTV - how can you argue that.... And if you do, be more practical then showing us your own fear of being "watched"...
But then again, we're still waiting to know what your family needed protecting from.

Dunno! Just a simple man like yourself. Maybe one of the women could confirm?

Do you really believe the typical American has the intellect and skills to protect himself and loved ones any better than current US law enforcement?

If the typical Americans driving skills are an indicator of hand/eye coordination, no wonder there's the motto is "In God We Trust"!

Handbag I suspect. You'll notice ladies do not go anywhere without a handbag/purse/pocketbook.

It was the main reason I got married. Now no longer have to carry my own keys/cigs/lighter/Amex when we're out.
