You would think that the politicians who swore an oath to defend and protect the Constitution should have at least some basic idea of what it’s all about.

Freedom is not the default position of humans. We are a species most comfortable being told what to do, how to feel, and when to feel it. We want kings to rule us, hoping that whatever additional security they can provide us is worth the crap they make us do. Being free to make mistakes and screw up is too frightening, we’d rather blame others and bitch about it. We are a pitiful, fallen bunch of pansies that should wear “kick me” signs on our back.
They are both women. Just pointing that out.
Not having watched Person of Interest yet, it sounds like a TV show with the same premise as the movie Minority Report (and I am sure more than few others).
I suppose the ultimate irony of any predictive system that underpins any of those stories is that either there is a flaw in its predictions, in which case you will get some innocent people or the system is without failure which raises the question of fate and predetermination. If someone is fated to commit a crime and has no free will to change actions, then do they really have agency or should we just let everything happen as fate decrees?
The wrongthink on social media is double-plus ungood.
It is rare to hear a reference to “The Lives of Others”. Great flick.
In the 1970’s China had a law against ‘thinking.’ If they saw a man looking at a woman, they could arrest him and charge him with rape.
When YOUR OWN government brags about surveilling YOU it’s time to replace your government. It is THAT government that needs to be surveilled.
As Bill suggested, hate speech and hate crime do not exist.
Also, as he suggested, hate speech argues that the murder of one class of victim is more heinous than the murder of another. However, that also means that the murder of one class of victim is not as bad as the murder of another. As time goes on, there is only one way that can go: Eventually, it will be ‘ok’ to murder certain classes of victims.
Unfortunately, those who push the idiocy of anti-hate speech legislation do not rely on logic or rational thought, because they don’t benefit from such abilities.
it seems that they are still having problems getting the individual povs to come together in sync.
Yep. This particular video stream may be the worst of all that I have ever watched when it comes to audio synchronization.
