Very well said mate. Was a ridiculous post.It's hard not to insult someone who wants to take your civil liberties away and is advocating a V for Vendetta society. We should be threatening to ban them instead of the people who find their ideas repugnant. Some of the comments on here would find sympathy with the proponents of Sharia law, which has to be the ultimate irony.
But the focus on preventing terror needs to be upped imo. It would come at an expense of freedoms though. It's what the terrorists want but that's just unfortunate.
When I said house to house I meant localized. For example a section of Paris. But I don't know what the security forces require other than I presume they want more people, more technology, more freedom from some laws that restrict them and more freedom from protests because they are infringing on our current rights.
As I said way back it's a danger to give them too much trust but I wonder if we have to.
Obviously I'm no security expert. I am just concerned about the future for my kids
Sort of. The IRA said it in reverse after the Brighton bombing.Sad news.saw it on news before went to bed last night.naively thought was a terrible accident.
As for big brother posts, Deary me.didn't someone say "they only need get lucky once, we need be lucky all the time " ?
Ah ok.maybe not best choice of quote to use.sorry if offend anyone.really couldn't remember where I had heard it.Sort of. The IRA said it in reverse after the Brighton bombing.
Big Brother didn't stop the IRA, discourse did. Not that it's possible in this situation sadly.
