    What will be the defining battle of the 21st century?

    Tony Blair: Extremist religion will be the defining battle of the 21st Century - Telegraph

    I reckon it will be the struggle of the UK against twunty PMs who don't listen to the electorate to to god instead.

    The rise of RoboCop

    BBC News - Police shoot at car in Crawley to make three arrests

    What about the risk to bystanders?

    If they had been shot at then it might be a little understandable.

    These days the police are not there to uphold the law. They are the law.

      "Shots were fired at the tyres of the car in Crawley at about 14:15 GMT to bring it to a halt, Sussex Police said."

        Luckily for us this Tory government doesn't like the police.

          still a risk to bystanders. and shooting should only be necessary when everything else has failed or shots are being fired by the crims.

            Shooting soft tissues of the driver who allegedly refused to stop would have certainly reduced chance of ricochets, but I guess officers just did not want to spend the rest of their life filling in the paperwork

                Listening to god's instructions to kill brown people made him a VERY rich man.

                  Not in the UK. We'll be ******* each other over for 0.5% by the end of the decade.
                  While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
