Thud & Blunder
I must be slowing down as you improve because I can't see the problem with the questions.
As for other people answering the questions - the thread's been running for some time and, I think you'd agree, the majority of posts dealing with this aspect have expressed a view contrary to yours. (Doesn't make them right of course.)
Straight-forward questions - no catch:
Do you think it is an acceptable use of public money to use a helicopter to catch motorists committing traffic offences?
Why do you say it's 'selfish' to express a view that some offences are so serious that the expense is justified, and some are not?
I happen to think that the police already waste far far too much money/manpower catching motorists - which should be used to catch criminals. Of course that's a personal view - most views are, whether original or adopted. I've picked up the odd speeding ticket over the last 35 years, but have never been attracted to robbing or rioting - does that undermine the value of my views, or make them 'selfish' in your opinion?
