Truck Runs into Crowd in Nice

Nice mayor just said truck was full of weapons and grenades

'Is our privacy more important than our lives?' I'm not sure how anyone can oppose that really. If big brother has to know about everything that I do / have done but that knowledge ultimately saves one of my family, then just do it as quickly as possible. I've got absolutely no problem expanding that to include the lives of all decent people whoever you are.

completely disagree. Security services these days will end up saying they knew they had links to them because people who engage in this sort of atrocity leave traces. More often than not the problem is security services want to go after the juicier fish and decide not to follow up closely enough on "minor" players who end up causing this shit.

No need for them to hack our privacy, and there never will be.

I know what you're saying and I agree that powers have been mis-used in the past. What I was advocating was proper, legit intelligence gathering to monitor all, in order to target the people doing this type of atrocity. We surely can't expect our security forces to protect us but not give them a powerful tool to help them?

This assumes we have only the option of big brother. I would like to think we can self moderate better than those in power think we can. Now this is the tricky bit...

What mechanism would allow for greater scrutiny and less intereference from a centralised monopoly of power who would trample over the rights of the individual for the greater good?
 
Some distressing films on social media.

Not sure why anyone would want to watch them. I have absolutely no desire to see innocent people being slaughtered so I will avoid clicking on any links to them.

Watch and share if you want to promote the terrorist cause.

If you don't, don't

they already have immensely powerful tools to help them.
