I think domestication has taken the heightened situational awareness out of humans a little too much unfortunately. The fact that some people think it's wrong to be concerned about an abnormal presence near your domicile is disheartening.


I think it takes an encounter or two with dangerous people to be reminded of that. My luck with real sociopaths and whack jobs has been poor over the past few years and it’s really put things into perspective. Not everyone abides by the moral or ethical codes we take for granted in society.


Abnormal for you maybe. But you aren't always paying attention, that's not your job. Maybe it's someone going for a walk, maybe it's a neighbors friend. You just don't know.
