    "I'm afraid to find out just what "Community Initiative" means. Maybe I'm just over reacting, but to me it sounds like (potentially) snooping on and reporting your neighbors"

    Sounds just the Mormon Cult, er I mean religion

  3. Yup. I picked this off Pandagon.

    So... if I get this correctly, the next time a hurricane like Katrina comes along and wipes out, say, Miami, because FEMA screwed up New Orleans, instead of the government doing what they're paid to do, they can point at the church in the neighbourhood and say, "It's their fault! They're in charge!"
