A less than reassuring statement via the BBC:Police have described 14 armed robberies in the Strathclyde area in the past eight weeks as "completely unacceptable to us as a force".As opposed to what?!?!
Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
All those CCTV systems the Brits have pput up are really paying off!!
ReplyDeleteAs Thomas Sowell recently put it: "'Unacceptable' is one of the big weasel words of our time-- almost always said when the person who says it has no intention of doing anything, and so is accepting what is called 'unacceptable.'"
