Did I hear someone mention the possibility of animal rights activists being responsible?

"Sky sources said that the company targeted deals with the enforcement of speeding fines."

Sounds more like a home-grown nutbag than some islamist.

From yesterday's bombing:

"...which on behalf of the government controls the $16 daily fee for central London drivers meant to cut down on traffic in central London.

Sky would have to comply I am certain with some sort of regulatory body regarding some content such as violence language etc but as far as money is concerned no it is owned by News International (Rupert Murdoch) like FNC is and like FNC is a cable/satellite or digital TV service.

For what it's worth, political correctness is a distant cousin of the major tyrannies of the last hundred years. You are correct, the PC crowd would love to imprison Rush, hang WFB and perform God-knows-what unspeakable acts on Micheal Savage. Unfortunately for them, we got this little thing called the First Amendment which still has some sway in our law courts.

Do you think Britain has hope to stop the bleeding of freedom such as you mention?

And I think Brit Law enforcement knows this....and knows that to come down on Muslims when it is most likely NOT the work of the same mouthy aggressors in the mosques, would only embolden the Jihadists among them and give them ammunition to present themselves as unjustly persecuted.

This may have to do with a disgruntled motorist and those speed trap cameras.

If these were muslim bombs, their goal would not be to injur.

Their phasers do not have a "stun" setting.

Couldn't these freaks just blow up the cameras or something? Maybe just paint the lenses black?

Nope, that would be 'civilized'.
