I’m on the fence about this. On the one hand, I support citizens being part of their own defense. On the other, this feels like the start of Brown Shirts. I’m not even sure I can articulate a clearer message: report obviously wrong things, but don’t be a d-bag.

I can clear that up for you: reporting everything you’re uncertain about to law enforcement isn’t “being part of [one’s] own defense.” It’s outsourcing common sense.
Wow. I’ll totally be replaying and replaying Burroughs’s thanksgiving prayer over and over this year. “Thanks for a country where nobody’s allowed to mind his
own business. Thanks for a nation of FINKS.”
I’m thinking about the “power of that” and I don’t think I’ll be getting any sleep.
