| In the same spirit, I would like to suggest that all news organizations immediately cease issuing weather alerts, storm warnings, and fire index warnings. I also suggest that said organizations immediately stop investigating high crime areas, and stop reporting the suspected existance and identities of stalkers, rapists, child molestors, and murderers. Studies have consistently shown that such reports and warnings only add to the paranoia of a given populace, and that sticking one's head in a bucket of a sand is a much more effective preventative measure. |
