I have a healthy disregard for councils and how their total mismanagement and abuse of power.
That, however does not mean my message has any less validity.
This recent incident appears rather pathetic, but if it had achieved it's target of deaths and significant casualties, would your argument remain.
It's not just about bombs 'going off every 10 years'.
Clearly elementary maths is not your strong point.
Actually what is your strong point, because you are totally missing the points that I raise.
It's about ALL the attacks in Britain and the rest of Europe, oh and the rest of the world.
Before 2001, there were terrorist attacks with more deaths and casualties due to the evil IRA.
IRA attacks ONLY occurred in Great Britain and Ireland.
Since 2001, virtually ALL attacks in Great Britain and Ireland, Europe and the rest of world have been as a result of the evil Muslims.
IRA terrosism was a British and Irish phenomenon.
Islamic terrorism is a worldwide phenomenon.
That does not mean ALL Muslims are evil, just those that perpetrate these acts, those who radicalise, those who hide them, support them, those who share their evil ideology, those who celebrate and smile at their actions.
My response was in reply to a poster who thought yet even more erosions on our privacy was a good idea.

It isnt. There are not enough terror incidents to merit more surveillance. Also, these sweeping powers are being abused by Central and Local Government and, I would argue, these powers are being used for reasons other than protecting the country from one of those rare bombs.
