For me, reading this was a painful epiphany. I confess I'm one of those who would probably waste a few minutes of my life waiting for Big Brother to give me the signal to "Walk". I've always been paranoid about the law. When I was a teenager I watched those old movies where the judge said "30 years hard labor" and it sent chills down my spine. I think it has something to do with the Primitive Mind, which is black-and-white, versus the Intellect, which can make intelligent and mature decisions by appropriately weighing current parameters.

That is a good insight on why we might see that scenario differently. It's such fun to think about it, especially when you figure out why you are how you are.
