How do you deport a Brit?
And not sure how an ID card would have made any difference to this incident
What are troops really going to do?Realistically, the only scenario they'd be useful in is a Mumbai style run-n-gun.Most often, the time a bomber sets the bomb off, there's nothing left to shoot.
I for one wouldn't. I have no wish to live in a North Korea/East Germany/Russia as that ultimately is the level you would need to go to.
There have already been cases of the police abusing their current powers, and if they had more they would use them to suit not as needed.
Freedom has a price, a horrible price
Not that I don't understand the others side case
It's nearly impossible to stop this type of thing.Mentally fragile people getting manipulated to do these things is very hard to stop.Definitely, a better border control system is needed here and thank foook we are eventually coming out of Europe.The internet needs moderating... Maybe a bit like the Chinese do
God, I hope this is sarcasm but fear it isn't.
As Benjamin Franklin once said
Those who would give up essentialLiberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
Also to note, once you give up liberty, the state never gives it back. Same as taxes.Everything sold as temporary never is, it just becomes the new normal of its own.
ID cards are carried through the whole (just about) of Western Europe too you knowdata:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
ID cards just tell you who somebody is, not what they're going to do.How does that stop anything?
