I find this disturbing, i thought the UK was about freedom and democracy.

pretty much, sorry to see that too Jonnym... i like how they even took US approach, throwing in words like 'crime' and 'terrorist'.... Lose your rights for a fear of the boogy man.

Except terrorists are real. I'm not defending the law in any way, it's awful, but don't compare a real threat to a made up one.

Hmmmm, looks like I gotta take UK off the list of countries to flee to when the US goes to shit.

I still plan to go to Australia.

Australia tops my list too. Terrorist organizations are funded by the CIA.

As long as Skrewy is in Aus, it's off my list.

If america goes to shit, the whole world will go down with it, best stay is the place thats familiar to you.

....we been in Afghanistan and iraq for 11 years, if there was even any threat, it was dead in the first 3-5 years. but this whole terrorist propaganda is to put fear in people like yourself, so you feel safer giving up rights you once had... being its 'for your protection'.

As far as im concerned, the war on terror isnt a real war at all... didnt face any real army... the reasons for war were based of fiction kinda like the boogie man. the more you look into the reasons for wars we enter, the more you realize the number dont add up, not going to turn this into another 9/11 thread, you can figure that yourself, or dont. no matter.

but seriously, this is just more 'give up our rights today so we're safe tomorrow'.

ya, that makes sense.

I agree with soup as always, there's no terrorist threat in the Middle East. So long as we stop pissing them off. Y'all need to listen to more Immortal Tech or something.
