I do not like the trend of "collective presumption of guilt due to the illegal actions of others in the past" that appears to be the current method or thought behind "preventing tragedies". I will not be held accountable or responsible for the criminal or negligent acts of others. Even if they are the same color as I, same age, same sex, and used the same tools to commit their crimes. They are responsible for their own actions, their own choices and their misdeeds. To label me as "a potential offender" because I have something in common with that person, is a cheap and easy way out and it almost "excuses" those who commit crimes by blaming their tool, their gender, their skin color, their income level, their parents, or anything other than them and their own free will.

  • Just so you know, it has nothing to do with "preventing tragedies" and everything to do with controlling the masses.

  • Which is exactly the point I am trying to make. I am hoping there is mass outrage at this idea so I can highlight the irony behind their outrage.

  • I understand and spotted your metaphor as you were making it. The image (above) is becoming (more and more) the response and reply (as well as the image that quickly comes to mind) whenever I hear that I have (or should feel) some link and "shared guilt" with those who commit crimes.
