Power Line News

Those of us outside of the liberalocracy have no power...new conservatism or not we increasingly take our lead from the E.U. plus it is our media and activist judges who prepare the ground and implement the policies that do so much damage to Britain...do you really think cameron will reduce crime and the social decay that blightd Britain?

I did a search in the London Times and the BBC news (hoping to get a leftist view of the incident) of the following:

Michael Clark, Sex Offenders Register

and, although I pulled up older sex offender news, I came up with nothing on Clark. I tried the same with the Telegraph to make sure my search parameters worked and of course the correct story pulled up first.

My question is” Did the Times and the BBC even report the incident?”

If you can find the story in either source I’d like to read. Their leftist view would be very revealing.

If Boris Johnson were able to have had an impact, the story may have turned out different. Things are changing in GB, maybe not soon enough for that poor little girl, but the leftists received a big blow in the recent elections.

My heart goes out to the victim’s family.  They can’t get their daughter back, but it’s also a shame that they will most likely not received justice.

Unless, of course, the father (or the younger brother) converts to Islam.  Under current trends of British jurisprudence, an honor killing of this Michael Clark would then be excusable.

Ditto to Old Grouch. Where are our resident lefties?

My heart goes out to this family. I don’t know how people get up every morning and go to bed every night with such knowledge of how their little girl spent her last moments.

true UK scenario:

woman sleeping in bedroom, man breaks in through window, starts to manhandle/molest the woman, she cracks him with a chair to stop the attack.

she does more time than he does for using “excessive force”.

Sounds like they are enforcing the word of the Lord. You must turn the other cheek or you will be prosecuted under the full power of the Law. Who said liberals weren’t uber Christians.

Really, they are religious extremists when you put it in the proper perspective. They don’t believe there is justification for any action that contains violence, period. You can defend only, they do not permit you to attack even when attacked.  Where is Guy Fawkes when you really need him to blow them all straight to hell?

Ok, Americans, take a step back and a deep breath. I hate my country’s corrosion by the liberals, but the idea that it’s too dangerous for you folk is a little pansified. I agree that London is worse now than NYC or Houston where I’ve lived, but there’s really not much for the average tourist to worry about. Any reader of Drudge’s links to UK media - far robuster and heterogeneous than the US MSM - will realize that there’s plenty of resistance and scorn here for the pc and socialist. Thatcher won landslides for a reason.

We’re further down the slope than you, but polls suggest we may trend to a version of conservatism sooner. God help you if you get Obama, but McCain’s citizenship policies may destroy the USA even more effectively.

A electable conservative in the UK is the same as a liberal democrat here. I would not visit simply because I have not become accustomed to being a victim. If mugged, I would resist if able and that gets you arrested in the UK. Going to jail for excercising my God given right of self defense is not for me. One can avoid that remote possibility entirely by avoiding the PC countries that embrace it. Put another way, why give my money to a country that refuses to protect its citizens, much less tourists.

As I understand the law, even a pocket knife is illegal carried in the UK!!!

When I was visiting London two years ago, I watched one of the morning news shows (mostly trying to find out whether I needed to carry an umbrella) and one of the feature stories was about an MP who had launched a campaign to “Hug a Hoodie"--the Brits term for the angry adolescents wandering about the neighborhoods causing trouble.

I figured it was just a matter of time before this PC response to crime and delinquency crossed the pond to the Colonies.

That MP was David Cameron, the probable next Prime Minister. Here’s a photo of a hoodie pretending to point a gun at him behind his back: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/6389277.stm

Look, he was roundly mocked everywhere. There are oodles of social work and criminal justice horror stories, but they are publicised, despised by most outside the liberalocracy and form the emotional foundation for a new conservatism.

Yet these same politicians are reelected over and over again.

This Is ...

Just more evidence that Britain, as well as much of the EU, is regressing.

Once upon a primitive time, in order to live together in groups, Man had to give up some individual rights for the greater good.  Brits should understand and appreciate the concept better than most. These days, at least across the pond, the individual has more rights than the society that produced him.

The whole is NOW irretrievably simply the sum of its parts.  Sadly, some of its parts are rabid and should be destroyed for the greater good, NOT coddled and enabled.

[Quote]Police are to use hundreds of airport-style and hand-held weapon detectors in the crackdown on knife crime.

Teams of 15 officers will be deployed across the 10 boroughs in London that have recorded the most knife crime.

Assistant Commissioner Tim Godwin, head of territorial policing in the capital, said officers would be deployed in areas blighted by stabbings to stop and search teenagers suspected of carrying weapons.

Police admit the “in your face policing” is expected to raise community tensions in some areas.

But they say they are getting significant support from communities desperate for them to crack down on the problem.

Officers will use contentious Section 60 powers to enforce effective “no-go” areas for people carrying knives
