Unprivileged
by Wake Me Up Before You Jo-Ho insomething just dawned on me today as i processed my assimilation into the real world (thanks to our new poster, @jester, giving me a major throwback to my first post).. when you're a jehovah's witness, you really are in some sort of la la land.
things which are perfectly normal are acts of eating from the table of the demons.
things which are horribly grotesque and extremely unjust are branded as "righteousness".

You forgot the "privilege" of the holy toilet brush! my jw once told me that was a 'privilege' he had to do before he came home and he might be bit late that day. I found it odd the women weren't relegated to that chore considering their view of women and all. I must have spent the next 30 minutes or so thinking of all the smartass comments I wished I had said when he said that. I said nothing and walked away giggling to myself. Ubm's must amuse themselves sometimes.

Should private citizens be allowed to video record law enforcement?
by Fisherman ini saw an article in the news yesterday that laws are going to be passed subjecting the police to being recorded by anyone while performing their duty or enforcing the law and encourages citizens to sue if they interfere.
some law enforcement agents become angry and confiscate recording devices from people recording them while making an arrest, etc.. it does seem that the work that the police and other government agents do is public and not private or confidential so there should be nothing to hide from the cameras.
on the other hand, how can one distinguish being shot by a camera or by a weapon until one is hit?.

I was always under the impression that if you are in a public place you have no expectation of privacy and that would also include officers. If you are at a beach, fair or just walking down the street a photographer can film or snap pic of you and you have no recourse or expectation of compensation for using your likeness. Much like the paparazzi do to the rich and famous.
Naturally this can cause all sorts of problems for people. What if some weirdo is taking photos of your kids or wife? what if someone just doesn't want their photo taken? and so on.....

Yes! there was another thread or two on this and from what I gather it is on Google's end. I don't think there is anything Simon can do about it. It is annoying though isn't it?

From enemies to friends: Did it really happen?
by StephaneLaliberte inyesterday, they showed the story “from enemies to friends” at the kingdom hall.
my mother in law told me about it as she was touched by the story.
so then, later in the evening, i searched for the video and found it in the january 1st 2017 broadcast.

They use a 20 yr old story?
Heck, they could get tons of current and probably daily stories if they changed it to 'friends to enemies- the real life effects of shunning'.
