Sorry G-EMMA.

How have you, Squeegee Longtail, come to the conclusion that I am the worst thing for society that has ever existed? What a total overreaction.

All I've said is that monitoring is clearly an issue for the powers that be and that I subscribe to monitoring if it's considered appropriate. Additionally, I also said that there is little I don't disagree with on the other side of the argument but that I'm open to a debate, with the authorities, on this idea. And I'm open because it seems to me that to participate in a debate before something is done is better than all the usual hangwringing after. I also said that there is a threat, and that the threat needs to be assessed and dealt with by the powers that be. It's what they are paid to do and I guess they are doing it.

No-one has answered any point I've made about self regulation and self policing. No-one dealt with logisitics, recce's et al - everyone has seemed to focus on the aircraft being used on a one way trip. All I've heard in response is that you can use a car and a can of coke if you like and that it's a waste of time.

Fine but a least explain why?

Nowhere have I advocated signing away any of my perceived freedoms or liberties. To suggest such a thing is, frankly, offensive.
