@martialme84 so maybe the question is.. how much freedom are we willing to sacrifice on the altar of safety, or percieved safety? We do not have a lot of freedoms left, think about it.. how many things can you do, that does not have some governmental rules attached to it?

@martialme84 lol, I am really wondering who is over reacting here:) I was not arguing your point as such, merely asking a rhetorical question. Well maybe not so rhetorical ..( I dont know how i missed your reply btw, sry for the late response). My point is that we are getting more and more laws imposed on us.. for our own safety..Soon we cant do anything because its not safe for us. How babied do we have to be, is what i wonder.. at which point does it become too much? Why are we treated like children that do not know our own best, in stead of being treated as adults that can decide for ourselves? Is it ok to allow the stupid actions of a few dictate what the rest of us are free to do or not do? And yes, in a fire situation, having a cell phone is a lot better than not having one. ( I am totally calm, not barking or angry, just suggesting a disussion on a topic;) no need to tell me to chill, lol )

@colat1265 No, it is not.. And I think it is time we start considering this, and understand that it is not just a few guidelines to make life easier, but a controlsystem to keep us in check. We are free ranged.. not free .

@Quadster19 I hope you are joking.

@anitaparks8945 I dont have a lot of gadgets, I know people that do. Tends to be the amount of money you have that decides how free you are in this society, not gadgets. Privacy and freedom are not synonyms, a person in solitairy confinement has plenty privacy and no freedom at all. We all have to ask permission for most stuff, and the less money you have the harder it is to get permission to do anything as most things have fees of sorts attached. I do not think people today even know what freedom is, they are too used to thinking of our self appointed (yes, we do not elect them, they do:P) leaders as demi gods, better equipped to know what is good for us than we do.

@Quadster19 lol, ok, I am just making sure, text is a rather limited way of communicating, no eye contact or body language:) Other than tat.. men and women are different, and i guess these videos looks to be very male. And they are.. but I , as a female, honestly wish to learn what I can about men.. that way it becomes easier to understand whats going on, easier to communicate, and easier to cooperate:)
