best home security companies
Although crime rates have been steadily dropping, the illusion that they are on the rise is presented daily by news outlets, focusing on isolated crimes, as well as the makers of security devices. The short term result of this is obviously profits for the companies making such devices. The long term results are a bit more troublesome upon consideration. ‘Mean World Syndrome’ as it is called instigates not only conscious reactions to perceived threats but also subconscious reactions which unfortunately not only influence how people view their neighbors and other community members but also can be passed on to new generations, genetically and environmentally, irrationally giving them someone to hate and direct their fears at. Though born of illusion, these attitudes can lead to real world consequences as people respond to events either through an emotional amplification born of fear, thus over reacting sometimes violently, or by completely disconnecting, unable to act appropriately when another human is violently attacked in their presence. Part of taking responsibility is admitting the illusion of fear for what it is rather than reacting on and teaching others to do the same.
