Love this observation about New York's new "narc on your neighbor" program:
I’m not a Christian. But all Christians should remember this: Jesus was killed by the government…with the cooperation of police and soldiers who were “just doing their job”…after a legal trial in a court of law. Christians should also remember that it’s not very Christian to nark out your peaceful neighbors. And you may be held accountable for this in heaven.
Non-Christians should also remember this: at some point this statist tyrannical insanity will end. And there may be Nuremberg-type trials for collaborators. In other words, you may be held accountable for this on earth.
Indeed. This all seems very straightforward, if you put forward even a moment's thought about it, but then I'm a heretic already, so maybe it's just me.
It's not that I'm happy to hear about all this, understand, but still...I needed that one today. Thanks, Feens.

Important points, absolutely. Furthermore, just think of the potential for abuse in this system, even for those who truly believe that nobody should ever break a "law" of any kind.
How long before the dime is dropped by people seeking revenge for slights, real and imagined... all sorts of other reasons? This type of anonymous "tip" system is guaranteed to become worthless to those who truly wish to follow the law (however misguided), but it will be a bonanza for those who simply want to fill the jails and pad their paychecks with overtime.
