Mmm, I'm inclined to agree with you, Enjay. Sadly, I can't see an intelligence filter being placed over internet sites ever happening, as it would annihilate the entire userbase =p
And well, the police here are constantly under flak from the public for just doing their job, there was a huge commotion when they tasered a Polish immigrant who was apparently being violent in an airport - as a result of the tasering, the victim sustained heart failure and expired, despite the police and paramedic's attempts to resuscitate him. The big issue was whether the taser usage was warranted or not, which according to regulations - it was. Nobody could've known whether the device would've caused any damage, his death was a tragic accident - if the public had anyone to complain to at that moment, it would be the federal government for issuing self-defense weapons at all (not that I think the police should be unarmed, after all, they're not the ones stealing cars and robbing liquor stores, are they?)
Anyhow, I don't think there's many people that would know what I'm talking about, so I should probably get out of rant mode =p
