The Sheriff has gone mad and the people are in danger!Hate Hollywood- 'er, well most of it today. Old time movie buff myself though. Nearly all we kids had in the thirties(cinema). Yeah, very nice indeed- the picture. Saw the film and Flynn still had an Australian accent.
I remember the bit where, hot on the chase, Errol asked someone "whych wye did thye goah?".
I do know whether to laugh or cry on this kind of information. Green ribbons is it? Well, I hate to poke fun, but.....The Gilbert and Sullivan light opera had a ditty thus:
"The policeman's lot is not a happy one, happy one". Yes, indeed. Poor England. Bring on the hard men.

Solidarity with the living Muslims, but not the dead Christians, killed by Muslims.

Wouldn't Red White and Blue ribbons to show solidarity with the peaceable British people they are supposed to protect be more appropriate.The chief constable is promoting himself --- note his name.

A POLICE chief has ordered his force to wear green ribbons to show solidarity with Muslims who fear persecution after the bomb attacks in London. Steve Green, the Chief Constable of Nottinghamshire, wants the public as well as his 4,000 officers to wear the Good Faith Ribbons and has bought 20,000 for £2,000. Announcing the campaign, which starts today, Mr Green...You know what they say. It ain't easy bein' green.

Green - as in green slime. I foresee this as becoming a hollyweird trend, green ribbons.

That green ribbon is to hold the white feather in place.

Mr. Green will make such a cooperative slave for his Islamic master one day.
I see many many virgins in Mr. Green's imaginary future and a magic carpet ride too.

Nottingham has some of the worst crime rates in Britain. I used to wonder why. Now I know.

A far more appropriate response would be to have Muslim terrorists wear solidarity neckties.

If my job told me to wear this ribbon or any other that I did not support, I would tell them to PISS OFF! They can fire me! At some point, you have to stand up for yourself.
