The ones I LOVE are the ones who steadfastly go on & on about it being a "Victimless" crime, it's "Free" speech, so we can't do anything about it. Yeah. A couple of years back, this one dude was just hanging up the phone, where he was sending the "Polices Officers" to arrest me 'cause I owed 'em money from the 2008 Tax bill. I knew it was, of course, BS of the highest order, but I wasn't busy, & I went out to the "Polices" station to see if I was fixing to get tossed in the lowest bowels of the klink.. I know most of the sheriffs & deputies anyhow, This one lady deputy just rolled her eyes & shook her head. She allowed how they get elderly people in all the time scared to death that they REALLY are in massive amounts of trouble. They always tell the victims to just hang up, & don't worry, but quite a few of the really "Backwoods" types still think they are. At the very least, these spoof numbers, being unable to RETURN the call should be stopped. As it is now, the scammers have ALL the wonderful technology on THEIR side, us poor dumb Crackers have nothing.

So I suppose you've read by now the newest wrinkle... the RSCC (*SenateCampaignCommittee) has signed on to a request to be able to place no-ring voicemail messages in your cellphone voicemail. As in, you don't even here it's coming in, or have a chance to stop it -- it just shows up on your voicemail. They're not the only ones wanting to do it, but they're the only ones who have both the means to make the ruling adjustment as well as reap the potential benefit. Showed up on Google news feed the other day, so both 'sides' of the story should be findable.
