has this been discussed here??? London attacks/incidents are to |
|
scare US but not look like W isn't protecting us????
and why so many 'incidents' in so short a time in London???
many of the suspects were apparently born in and grew up in England??? will this 'legitimize' in England racial profiling and tracking of citizens and some curtailment of civil rights????
I'm hearing that this legitimizes in US racial profiling and close observation of all Muslims and especially ME males

3. I heard someone touting on TV the other day |
|
that what England needs is a Patriot Act just like the US. Maybe something that * and Blair cooked up so he can get more control over "matters".
