Is "our" government "spying" on us? in what is art?

It seems no matter where we go or what we do, there is someone always watching us. I tuned in to CNN this morning in my new slippers with a cup of Joe; the headlines read, “mall shooting in Denmark.” I thought, Denmark-why Denmark? After-all, they are the happiest country in the whole world. Or so we thought-or, for that matter, was it an American who held the mass at gun-point? I believe, that our freedoms are earned, along with respect. Freedoms are also destroyed, sadly. It is these liberties that we hold such a high regard for, yet we dismiss them (or should I say, “DESTROY” them. When people create a government, it is one with rules and regulations. The purpose of government, law enforcement, civic duties-it derives from crime, injustice, inequality. If there were no crime, there would be no necessity of criminal justice. We have these freedoms, yet go against them; laws get harsher with more crime, ruining these liberties. So when we are at the metal-detectors at the air-port or fondled and getting our cell-phones taken from ownership, we must ask ourselves, “why?” It is an inevitable cycle: without crime, there is no freedom; without freedom, there is no crime.
