all "for our own good".

I do find it interesting how many people resist the powers that be imposing security on us "for our own good" have no problem with them imposing nanny restrictions on us "for our own good."

Just and idle thought FWIW.

(Speaking of nanny restrictions, I have an update on my personal favorite, seatbelts, for the benefit of anyone who has heard me rant on the subject over the years or anyone who is short like me and can't get properly fitting seatbelts. Finally, finally there is some little guy out there who either manufacturers or imports or who knows what seatbelt extenders for the makes of automobiles that refuse to offer them to their customers. I managed to obtain one for my Honda, otherwise I would not have bought it. If you are in need of such, that is if your seat belt comes across your throat or the throat of a loved one, PM me and I will direct you to the angel who is making this possible.)
