It's probably as far out from our thought process as protecting themselves and not "calling 911" is to them.

I could go with my theories about where we are in this argument and where it is headed, but it's not within the rules of the board (which I respect).

Many, many people have been conditioned to accept and then to believe that "the state" and all of its appendages will take care of them and anything that could go wrong in their lives. You and I see them as mindless, spineless lemmings, but they in turn see us as anachronisms, throwbacks to an older "less civilized" time. Literally, we are the people that they feel need to be watched and monitored.

And, I think that does a pretty fair job of describing the gap between groups of "Americans".
