How many people died on the roads today?
I guess the families of those victims will be forgiven if they ignore the terror hype and attend to the real terror of death.
Anyone for a Patriot Act? It's already here, delivered by the ideological perverts in government, without regard to the wisdom of the citizens (oops - subjects of HM)! [/b]
No, you got it the wrong way round you un-PC racist scumbag! It should be "the wisdom of the loyal subjects (ooops - EU citizens)"
In any case, we have the most stringent anti-terror laws in Europe, we have a far less visible security aparatus which only reveals itself when it emerges to shoot harmless Brazillians or IRA members on holiday in Gibraltar.
It would be rather interesting if the UK had a similar setup to that of France or Spain where they have a Gendarmerie or a Guardia Civil barracks in every major town to keep order if the worst happens. You think shoot to kill and white noise was bad? In France they take you to a portacabin, strip you down and beat you with nightsticks before arresting you. Sometimes they even 'accidentally' let the finger slip on the trigger finger. What would be the reaction if the UK set up an equivelent of the para-millitary CRS in every town <strike>centre</strike> center?
I don't think we need to see a return to Diplock courts and internment, rather we should just apply the stringent laws we have now more effectively with the shadowy security aparatus we have right now.
