I saw something today...while Christmas shopping with Cindy...that I haven't seen before...or at least it didn't hit me before...like it did this time.
We still warn smokers...on every package...that smoking is hazardous. We still warn people that eating raw meat can be harmful. We still warn men using ED drugs that an erection lasting 4 hours might be harmful.
All right...maybe some/most/all of these have their place. Good reminders to make us think twice.
But we have all been taught 'right-from-wrong'. We all have a conscience (alright...some don't) about doing the right things.
Today...I saw a warning to criminals on some electrical devices at one of the stores we shopped.
Warning: This package has a security device attached.
So now...we are being PC to criminals...in case you 'didn't get taught right from wrong...in case you don't have a conscience...we have one more deterrent. An alarm on this device will alert us that you are stealing it.
Okay...I guess we gotta cover ALL bases.
