Violent muppet
Don’t you just love right-wing mentality? This one wants to scrap the Human Rights Act and integrate Police and Prison Service into the armed forces, apparently:
To often our press is plagued with stories of street gangs running riot while innocent people suffer at their hands. We propose the scrapping of the Human Rights Act so offenders can be punished properly while the Police are integrated into the Armed Forces, armed and trained to deal properly with offenders. The police and the prison service can then deal properly with offenders while protecting the public properly.
Maybe we’ll start by pointing out how naive it is, relying on the assumption between “offenders” and “the public” is all that clear-cut. For a main course, how would the proposer feel to be on the receiving end of soldiers coming around to his house, guns & uniforms ‘n’all, to “research” a reported burglary?
And how does this proposal facilitate `proper’ protection anyway?
Maybe, since he doesn’t want the right to freedom of expression, he should be the first to just shut up now?
