Topical question, in the UK news.
#76
I worked alongside a Pakistani on the day of the London bombings, when it was broadcast on the radio I made a comment about how the UK police and anti terror squad will probably over react, arresting innocent people, knocking down doors in the middle of the night, scaring families and causing more resentment. I wasn't wrong, I was living in Leicester at the time, many people were taken in such a manner, none of which proved to have links to any terrorist organisations.

Once I'd got off my soap box my friend said quietly 'In my town in Pakistan, this happens virtually daily, such a common occurrence it hardly makes the news papers any more, other than the obituaries'

Many Pakistani worked at this company and at the end of the conversation he leaned in and whispered ' be careful Mel. there are terrorists everywhere'

I sometimes wonder what Butt new


Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
