it's interesting. i no longer watch the news. i read headlines, and then read more if I want. Might watch a short online video (news or just raw footage, etc).

it makes life so much nicer.

but, is anyone else concerned about the martial-law look of boston in photos? and searches of homes without warrants (just going door to door and searching?). Of course, people can permit police to search their homes, which circumvents this -- but what if someone refused? then what? a shoot-out at their home? harassment? going to get a warrant?

I look at it and go "wow, americans are getting increasingly comfortable with a police state."

and that freaks me out.

and I don't even think that Alex Jones is completely on his rocker (i don't think he's completely off, either).
