foxinsocks, I read that the Israelis taught the British police that terror suspects must be shot in the head, and more than three shots, because someone survived three shots in the head.
All it takes is to be suspected, and what makes the police suspect you?
having a dark skin,
or looking like a Muslim, perhaps dressing in ethnic apparel,
or coming out from near a place under surveillance,
not stopping when told to do so. Deafness is no excuse here.
and I said "changing", not "changed". I hope it doesn't change. I think Britain has been the most civilsed place on earth so far. I just don't want it to go the way of the rest of the world.
Incidentally, when I was younger, once I was in a place where Martial Law had been declared (third world country). A soldier was trying to break open the door of a shop, perhaps for cigarettes, and I told him he had no right to do so. He immediately dropped to the ground and aimed his rifle at me with the bayonet right at my heart. He didn't say anything, but I froze (although starngely enough I didn't feel any fear).
Well, survived, as you can conclude.
don't think I will survive the next suspicion, though.
