Nah, the volume of calls will be used as the reason we need more taxes levied on "the rich" because they "don't pay their fair share" anyway. It will also be used as the reason the DHS needs another budget increase to hire more unionized government workers.

My neighbors neighbor is not very happy with the current administration.

So they want to "keep a close eye on things." So far we have facial recognition cameras, pre-crime surveillance cameras, voice recorders, mobile backscatter vans, aerial drones and automated license plate readers. They know which websites we visit, they can read our email...that's not enough!?

I wonder how these control freaks would like it if a couple of DHS officers followed them around all day and stared them in the face? Because that's how I'm starting to feel. They have nothing to hide so I'm sure they'd be okay with it.

With all that they can't stop a guy they were warned about from blowing people up on an international broadcast event.

But there was no hot-line for their friends and family to turn them in. That is why a couple of teen-agers were able to fly under the radar of the Boston Police and all of these US intelligence agencies:

Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)
National Security Agency (NSA)
National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)

My next-door neighbor's next-door neighbor has the very same problem.

I might point out that this hasn't slowed down CPS in the slightest.

CPS?

I was thinking the exact same thing

The Stasi in the former East Germany would be proud. I heard a story once that a person the Stasi recruited as a spy (on his neighbors) would brag about it at work, just so they would leave him alone. After all, if everyone knew you were a spy, you weren't very effective.

My neighbor's neighbor also has a problem, and I will rat him out at the first opportunity.
