If you come to Merrye Olde Englande in the near future, be careful when snapping our old monuments, and that includes The Queen. :evil:

And then be careful how you dispose of your trash.

Oh Lord where are we headed.

It seems we fear ourselves more than we fear our killers. That we act against ourselves more than we act against our killers. Very troubling times indeed, yet it goes to show that abusing the rights of all men to ?combat? religious supremacism isn?t limited to Patriot Acts in the United States.

Such abuses of government are rampant across much of the western world.

Modern terrorism has successfully provoked the wrong and ill conceived notion in the west that marks us all as ?enemy combatants? while any real and substantiated effort to combat the religious supremacism is ignored entirely.

It can very easily be declared that in this struggle we have defeated ourselves, if our goal was ever to maintain our free way of life.

Those are relatively minor compared to other issues facing the Queen's peasants.

There is a long list. I really think I may put one together of all of the ways in which england is rushing toward sucking ass.

If they aren't doing anything illegal why should it matter if they are searched, even if it's a fully body cavity search?
