To tell the truth, I think we ALREADY live in a police state. It just
hasn't touched ENOUGH people's lives in an intimate enough, personal way
that they realize it. And... it's creeping.
And if you can't tell from most of my personal statements, I'm overall
fairly conservative with a keen sense of fairness and awareness that others
rightly hold views that are at odds with my own.
I do have to say that I agree with you on this point. If I were a woman and
not a man, I would probably be more scared in the situations you referred
to.

With all respect, I disagree with your conclusion that this will lead to a
police state, by the way, but I don't think we need to bother arguing about
it.
