We American have a very dangerous habit because we're such sheep. We should never, never, never announce our phone number or home address in a checkout line because some clerk asks for it. I suggest that everyone start carrying a phone number and address card to hand to the pharmacist or whatever other person requests that information in a public area. I just left the pharmacy where a lovely woman from England picked up a prescription. She was with her beautiful young daughter. There were several people in line. When she gave her address and phone number, I cringed. Any pederast or rapist standing in that line now had information they shouldn't have And this happens a million times a day all over America. If the woman could have handed the clerk a card with that information, they would be the only ones who had it. Simple common sense.
We couldn't agree with you more. Just think about the Cheshire murders in Connecticut. The killers singled out the mom and daughters at a Costco the night before. Chilling.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize that. I say everyone should have an
ReplyDeleteaddress card, which they keep very closely protected when they are not showing it to some
clerk.
