And Yet Another Thing That I Can Add To My FileMy file of "Bad Gov't Reactions to Sept. 11." "If a trained police officer doesn't know the difference between political speech and a threat to the president, then we're all in trouble," Charns says. Just taking things too seriously. But you can make your own judgement. The Secret Service investigating a nineteen-year old girl because she had (supposedly) an anti-American poster on her wall? The poster "depicts George W. Bush holding a length of rope against a backdrop of lynching victims, and reads: "We hang on your every word. George Bush: Wanted, 152 Dead"--a reference to the number of people executed by the state of Texas while Bush was governor." I think they just went a little overboard with that one. If they get peeved over that, what about political cartoons? What about that website that I have listed under Funny Website(s)? Bush being compared to a monkey. That's funny, but not anti-american. So I don't necessarily always like Bush. So what? Even If You Don't Think That's Bad. . .Check this out. Don't move to the UK if you plan on having kids. Sheesh. They're talking about registering little kids with the police if they show any chance that they might later turn to a life of crime. Behaviors that might signify bad behavior later include: Children involved in cheekiness, minor vandalism and causing nuisances, will be targeted under the scheme. And: Their progress will then be monitored at school and on the streets by special squads of police officers and social workers, even though the children have not committed a crime and will not have been warned that they are being watched Sure, plenty of kids are like that in the beginning. But most of them mellow out. And even if they don't, that doesn't mean that they'll go into a life of crime. Besides, isn't it usually the quiet ones that lose it? (like me? j/k) But a good many of them turn out good in the end. Why don't they just target parents that tend to spoil their children or something like that? Plenty of kids can turn out bad because their parents don't pay any attention to them. Or else because their parents are too lax with them. Jeez. But if you want to make your own assumptions, you can read this article. "The Childhood Psychopath: Bad Seed or Bad Parents?"
