They're a murderous cult!
I have no problem with the authorities making this raid - - provided that it was not based on any info received from a warrantless wiretap (sarc).
Imagine what it would sound like if a typical FReeper's house was "raided" by a future lefty administration.
Right wing extremist house was raided... police recovered
armor piercing sniper rifle (deer rifle, wooo!!!)
military assault style weapon (ar-15 or other legal rifle)
shotgun (clay pigeons, beware!)
pistol
hundreds of rounds of ammunition and high capacity magazines
camoflage (...hunting!)
knives (same!)
walkie talkies (same!)
dangerous right wing literature (a 3 year old copy of newsmax, a ronald reagan portrait, and a thomas sowell book)
Unfortunately true "rule of law" takes time, time to be certain that there is merit to an accusation. I, personally wouldn't be angry about that.
And why didn't a Briton with a gun or machete take care of Hamza years ago, when he made it clear he was an enemy in their midst?
Britons are laregly law-abiding, and taking direct action, even when this bozo was mouthing off like he was accustomed to doing, would have gone against British law. No, it may have taken some time, but they nailed this bustard legally, which is ok in my book. The only pity was the sentence, which was too light in my opinion.
Now, there will likely come a time when we may have to use more stringent means than are currently available to deal with these vermin, but rights, once trashed, are difficult to reestablish. We should only go there if absolutely necessary, and even then, warily...

END THE DOLE
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Those of us trapped in 56K dialup HELL appreciate your kindness.
To which I can't disagree, philosophically, but as neither of us are Britons, that would be up to them...

I've got a filled-in one. Does that count?
"And these guys hadn't even heard about the Cartoons yet!" We got a little problem here. Bring out the vats of boiling sulphuric acid men! OK camel humper, jump in. Yes you one eye!
That is THE PROBLEM....what if the weapons fall in the category of WMD's????
I have one too somewhere....and neither count!!!
Welcome to 2006... There are *no* easy answers, only bad, and worse...
