'We must get back to the time when members of the public accept that even if they have done nothing wrong, and are not carrying a knife, they must not object to a police officer questioning them and in some cases searching them,' he said.Oh, and what time was that? And would anyone really want to live then and there?
Some might prefer going forward to a time when freedom-hating police state thugs are rendered impotent and laughable, but, true to form, most Brits will probably bend over and take it.
Coming soon to a continent with no shortage of like-minded subjects near you...?

"Alf Hitchcock: Calling for cross party efforts to find a long-term solution to knife crime"
ReplyDeletePerhaps Mr. Hitchcock can explain the violence. I'll wait for the movie.
That would be when I quit my job so I have no need to leave my house, and go on welfare to become a burden on the state rather than a benefactor.
ReplyDeleteThat would be... hm, open season. No bag limit, no license required.
That would be a very large mistake on the part of government at any level.
What, no "Psycho" references?
ReplyDeleteIn before the "if you haven't done anything wrong, what do you have to hide" comment! :D
ReplyDeletePS: Death to the Zargons!
"That time" must be the 1930s, when fascism was popular in Western Culture, and in Europe especially.
ReplyDeleteProgressives seem to have a problem with progress in general, and I suspect there is a disarmament wing of that movement. First they wanted to revert civilization to its state before the invention of the personal firearm -- some 500 or 600 years -- now they want to revert back to before the invention of the blade, which cannot be estimated due to the lack of written history on the subject.
Who knows where the civilization-fearing will take us. Don't be surprised the day that you are ordered into a state-owned, synthetic womb.
