Just as it is important not to jump to conclusions and unfairly target someone who is different, it is also important to keep your eyes open for suspicious behaviour and confront that person cleverly.Cyberkittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05317899959679200454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18082765.post-74350963247514961112008-12-31T15:25:00.000+05:302008-12-31T15:25:00.000+05:30Your thoughts are commendable but as Sifar mention...Your thoughts are commendable but as Sifar mentioned in his comment; the idea will work only if the people dont get carried away too much. This will go wrong when paranoia creeps in. <BR/>Just think if ur told that some one at ur workplace is a suspect terrorrist, your mind forces to to round up all the folks that you find different, uninteresting or others that you may dislike.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18082765.post-40847093034294609092008-12-26T19:39:00.000+05:302008-12-26T19:39:00.000+05:30Well, it could be helpful in certain situations on...Well, it could be helpful in certain situations only. People who are paranoid will have little to differentiate between a terror suspect and an ordinary person. Let me tell you in brief what happened to me about 4 yrs ago. I had my car in the garage for servicing. I was off for the day but decided to go see somebody and decided to take the bus (public transit). I was at the bus stop around noon (in summer time) and there was no shelter at the bus stop. To avoid the sun directly over me, I walked a few steps to an area where there was shade of a tree on the side walk. It was a residential area and I was standing in front of someone's house but on the sidewalk (less than 10 feet from the bus stop)which is the city's property. I got tired of standing there (about 10 mins.) so I decided to walk back to the bus stop and sit in the sun on the bench. Then I saw a police car with lights and sirens on, racing on the road. I thought that there might be some sort of emergency that the cop was rushing to. To my surprise the police cruiser stopped right in front of me. The office got out of the car and asked me what was I doing there? I was surprised, but then I realized that just coz I was in front of someone’s house standing on the sidewalk under the shade, and with a turban on my head, someone might have called the police thinking that I was associated with Osama Bin Laden. I politely asked the police man that what one does at a bus stop? I was waiting for the bus. He asked for my ID, and I gave him my Drivers Lic. and he asked me to wait while he ran my license on his laptop in his car. In the mean time the bus arrived. I asked the police officer to hold the bus coz if it leaves, I will have to wait for the next one (about 1/2 hr) and then someone else will call the police again. Officer told the driver of the bus to wait while he checked my ID. Then he came out apologizing to me that someone just called 911 for no reason. I took the bus and went my way.<BR/><BR/>Public input is definitely necessary as your are right to say that police cannot be present every where at all the times. But when we (public) gets involved, we are not trained the way law enforcement is so 99% of the time public will not be able to make the right judgment and that may lead innocent people to be prosecuted in vain. Thank God that I was in the USA and police brutality is not heard of much here and police treat citizens with respect and dignity. Imagine if I was in India, I would definitely have gotten into trouble big time. And who wants to go to "Bade Ghar" anyways, criminals or ordinary citizens.<BR/><BR/>Happy New Year to you, your family & friends and to all your readers (in advance).Sifarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04012916306120282829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18082765.post-28651624381789099532008-12-24T13:20:00.000+05:302008-12-24T13:20:00.000+05:30your ideas are excellent but I strongly believe th...your ideas are excellent but I strongly believe that no one can help me better than myself.
