—You should watch the ID Channel.—
What is that?
I will say that what I’ve learned to do is filter the “scary news” stuff. When I hear an “identity theft” commercial coming on the radio I immediately change the channel. I know that hearing the same thing, over and over, makes you believe it more, even against your better judgement. It means that anything that I cannot really do anything about, I don’t want to know about, unless there is a productive thing I can get out of it.
I live in an area where there are quite a few lightning storms. I don’t know anyone that has ever been struck by lightning, but I still avoid things like playing golf in a lightning storm. If I watched a lot of stories about people that were hit by lightning and follow up stories about the survivors, I’d be petrified. But I don’t, so I’m not. :-)
I’m just saying that if you did watch the ID Channel (Investigation Discovery Channel) you would be cautious because you would see there are a LOT of evil people out there.
However, if you don’t want to be so concerned you absolutely don’t want to watch it.
