I have come up with a brilliant idea to fight crime...
I live in the Los Angeles area in a neighborhood that has very little crime. To keep it that way, if I suspect a neighbor of mine is planning to do something illegal I have taken it upon myself to do something about it. What I will do is first alert my neighbors that there is someone among us who may do bad things. Then, I am going to load up my shotgun, walk down to their house, knock on their door and when they answer, I am going to blast the shit out of them. I am going to stop all crime before it has a chance to happen.

My motto is, "I'll fight them down the street so that I don't have to fight them here."

What do you think?

Brilliant, right?

6. See Minority Report.
It's about a near-future world where police use the visions from three test tube precognative psychics that catch criminals before they commit the crime they're charged with.

5. Or better yet, try this:
If you have a neighbor that has commited a crime, walk right past his house a couple of doors and choose a house at random. Walk up the steps, knock on that door and when someone answers it, BLAMMO! Then walk away and claim you're just getting even.

It's just like what Bush did in Iraq - Invaded one country because of what another country did.

8. You got it! The main thing is someone gets a whuppin' - guilty or not.
If you're doing the whuppin', you must be the good guy.

At least that's what the Bush administration does...............
