Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Marine Le Pen to withdraw France from NATO’s unified military command if she wins - [Link] She frames it as she does, but it comes down to significant Russian money (and consequently influence) in her campaigns many years now. Careful what you wish for.

Have I missed the post that points out the incident would not have happened if they were not burglars.
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Nor does anyone else. Just so long as the "defence" is proportionate to the threat. Shooting someone in the back whilst they are running away doesn't appear to me to match that criteria. Does it to you? I have confidence in the system, both of trial by jury and appeal to a panel of Judges. Nothing is perfect, but I don't know of a better alternative. I think the details written on paper and the reality of the moment might have been a little different. The result is that everybody lost in this situation, and that was because some people in our society are allowed to try and take what isn't theirs, with the police doing little or nothing to stop them.

Of course, everyone lost. It's easy to blame the police, but we are ultimately responsible. It's our job to ensure, via the politicians we choose, to provide them with the resources they need and to determine their priorities. That the result isn't currently to your liking is down to you to change, via persuasion.
