When is Enough Really Enough??

Recently during dinner I was watching the Simpson’s .  The episode was based on Springfield putting in a camera network for the entire city, exactly like London England has to help deter vandalism, theft, violence and what not.

As I continued to watch the episode Ned Flanders (Mr. righteous of all people) becomes the chief operator of the surveillance  network system, he has the ability to talk to people via intercom systems through the camera network. Well if you know anything about good ol Ned he lives by a different set of rules than the rest of the patriarchs in Springfield. So he starts warning people over any little infraction they may be doing from kissing in public, to betting and much more. Well of course this starts to bother the rest of the citizens of Springfield because they cant get away with anything and they feel there own personal privacy is being invaded at this point….(sounds familiar)

Well Bart ends up finding a blind spot in the camera system which of course is in the Simpson’s back yard. So all of Springfield gathers their to do their illegal activities. From their the story takes a whole look at when is enough really enough when it comes to security and our rights as Americans. I don’t want to give away the end of the show because it was actually pretty good, but here is a link to the entire episode through Hulu.com.

Now each person has their own opinion on this subject, and opinions are like…..well you know the old saying.  So I will just keep my opinions to myself on this matter because neither side is right or wrong in their claims.
