Politicians and police over the last few years are feeling very vulnerable. For the first time they fear being murdered by a lone wolf or a terrorist. As a result we citizens are being forced into a smaller and smaller personal space with fewer and fewer freedoms and rights. Just look around! Cameras are everywhere i.e. cabs, buses, subways, street corners, public buildings etc, etc. not to forget GPS. There is nowhere to go and not be photographed or our location known (cell phones).
Actually we are in a prison of our own making. Everyone seems to be apathetic. We are not revolting over this treatment and only a few protest on the street or on the web. We have earned the loss of our rights and freedoms out of pure cowardice.
I am 72 years old and in failing health. I refuse to blog on this topic again as no one is listening and no one really gives a damn.
