[QUOTE="509322, post: 768820"] Just watch this thread... some people will get agitated and obviously upset. Don't tell me that people don't get or are not way too emotionally involved in this stuff for their own good. There is measured proactive - that makes sense, within norms. And then there is overkill. Most "overkill" isn't "just in case." It is done because of fear. Fear of the unknown. And that is emotionally-driven, which makes it paranoia. Rational steps taken to the extreme becomes paranoia. It's the totality that makes it irrational, and therefore paranoia. [/QUOTE]
