Enforcing the Manual

I am sure that there are those who want the organization to enforce the manual prohibitions on lifestyle issues such as attending sporting events, television, movies, standards of dress, etc.

How would this be possible? How could it be done without creating a culture of policing one another, people following one another around, someone taking pictures and submitting them to district officials, someone hiring private investigators to follow around someone that we suspect or have an axe to grind with? I don't see how it would be possible to "enforce" the manual with out creating a mountain of problems and ruining our organization.

Do you disagree? Do you think there should be more enforcement of the manual?
