9. Personally, I would prefer to move away from
a drunken brawl and have done so quite successfully many times with no injury to me or my family and without the need for undercover police. We are adults, many of us are capable of making adult decisions without a nanny watching over us, or using that as a pretext to spy on the American people.

And had the police presence been obvious, the brawl might not have started in the first place.

This notion that we adults need constant surveillance is ridiculous. Where were they when, a few years ago, they were really needed in the brawl that took place in NYC at a parade when people actually called them or spoke directly to them telling them they were needed?

Seems to me that only people they view as needing 'surveillance' are those who disagree with the government's policies.
