In California, by September 25, 2001, the governor and attorney general along with the Highway Patrol and the Office of Emergency Services formed the California Anti-Terrorism Information Center. The Center is created to analyze and process the thousands of tips and leads of suspicious activity that began pouring into state law enforcement agencies in the days following September 11th. The effort has been to separate the wheat from the chaff and disseminate to law enforcement information that truly reflects suspicious activity or reliably warrants concern. In just January and February of this year, 1,615 subjects were reported to the database. Two Hundred and twenty eight of them had criminal histories and 330 were the subjects of ongoing investigations. The center services an average of 56 law enforcement agencies per week, and monitors 40 open anti-terrorist investigations.

If I felt my neighbor hated this country enough to do harm I would not hesitate. If they are just letting off steam that is another issue.

If I had suspicions that the neighbour was planning some action against American society, yes I would. We as Americans should always keep our eyes and ears open, especially during these times. What if 1 single tip-off could have prevented 9-11, many lives would not have been lost. It is the responsibility of all Americans to keep her safe.

Um, I would never report a neighbor for hating my country. He can hate what he likes. We have something called the first ammendment.
I *would* report a neighbor for materially supporting an enemy of my country, or for indicating plans to attack the country in some way.
This is a very important distinction, and the headline of your post confuses the distinction. Don't do that! I don't want Americans to start thinking they're all the thought police for the mere opinions of their neighbors. That's disgusting.

Well, George II and his neocons hate the country that I love, the country reformed under the Progressive ideas of the Republican Teddy Roosevelt, the country that elected Republican Dwight Eisenhower to the presidency -- and then failed to heed his warning about the dangers of the "military-industrial complex." Now, let's see, just whom do I report Cheney and Rumsfeld and Karl Rove and their Georgie Boy to?
But then you don't want to hear about that kind of hatred, do you? It's gotten labeled "patriotic" and "God-fearing" and "anti-Terrorist."
Sorry . . .

There is a difference between someone who hates the country and someone who wants to see the country destroyed. We are all entitled to our opinion until George Warmonger Bush take that right away from us too! I love this beautiful land but I HATE the retarded government currently running it. Make love not war. Respect, Tolerance you are responsible! Love creates life while war kills life off.

Yes I would report a neighbor the preacher or anyone else that gave an indication that they could possibly do destruction. They have no right to come to this country to terrorize people.

1. No I wouldn't. However, if they were DOING something suspicious, e.g., storing dozens of bags of nitrogen fertilizer in their garage, I might.
2. Please learn to use paragraphs. It's difficult to understand run-on paragraphs like yours. Split between "11th. The effort", "concern. In just" and "investigations. The center".

No, people have a right to their opinion. Unless they are planning something harmful, I'm not calling anyone.
Except maybe my friend to gripe about what crummy neighbors I have.

Not unless I suspected that they were going to do something about their feelings.
Sometimes, when I was growing up I thought my mother hated me, she never did anything about it though, so I never had to report her. - Good enough example?

Geez. I should have kept all the hate emails I received from people on this site.
Damn, I deleted them.
