Big Brother surveillance

Some good comes out of technology like this but there will be negative aspects also. They'll be watching everyone with this. Sounds like the lead-in to "Person of Interest". Too bad we have so many invasive technologies being developed. Of course, someone always says if you're not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about. Some behaviors are definitely wrong but other actions are subjective. Kinda like: what is a common-sense gun law? I shouldn't have posted this since "Samaritan" is watching.

I will allow myself one personal observation. If you want to disarm yourself, that is your choice. The following quote is a favorite of mine and something to keep in mind when you make that choice.

My social media presence has already established me as a right wing conservative! When the leftist socialist communists feel that they have enough strength, they will come hunting for me and my kind. they know they will not find  me curled up in the fetal position hugging my Teddy Bear and praying. It won't matter to them since they will have the law on their side by that time. I will have Sam Colt and the Minutemen with me!!

I'm no fan of the ACLU, but I have to agree with them on this one.  It sounds like a really, really bad idea.  What gets me is the number of comments on the Fox News site saying that if the ACLU is against it, then they're for it.

Because, identity politics. That's the problem. The two "official" political parties are really just tribes in the same Uniparty. Never mind that the largest group nationally is Independent, at something like 42% of all registered voters.

Might as well be chanting "tastes great" or "less filling"...or maybe it should be "four legs good, two legs bad".   ;)
