Whole different ballgame from Big Brother monitoring everyone because if you don't like it with Walmart you can just shop at Target or K-Mart.
Civilian vigilance is fine too. There is a line somewhere between vigilance and spying on people, and I can't profess to know exactly where that line is. I just know there is a difference.

The challenge is that these kind of things are so easily abused. We already know how the police often overreact - it's in the news every day and often reported here, and after we encourage people to report anything they perceive as amiss, can you imagine the mess?
No, it puts us one step closer to a police state.
