Empire

Please please correct me if I'm wrong...

I am no expert on oil, the middle east, the British empire, capitalism or "Native" American history but has something seriously gone wrong with the human race?

OK rewind a sec...

so the British empire decide to conquer a few places across our planet, suck the life out of the countries, take their manpower to other places like America...help to kill many Native Americans, help to populate America. and if we forward a little bit we see that not much has changed!

Is the only reason we are in Afghanistan and Iraq because that's where the life is... oil?

Is it just another Empire?

help me out here... please....

Wow I actually called in sick today!

OK I have a another twisted vertebrae to keep the other one company! 

Turns out I have a slight curvature of the spine, which means that when I try and keep my neck straight my vertebrae squeeze together and some try to get out of the way, when one does it twists to allow room, I used to have one twisted, and then a few weeks ago after it just got used to staying in!  it popped to the side, and then since I have had that corrected, another one has just popped out!

Lovely

there we go, I've got that off my mind!

BIG THANKS!!!!

Thanks to the MI5 and MI6 a huge disaster seems to have been avoided! 

The Police have been carrying out searches in Liverpool, Manchester and Clitheroe, Lancashire, following the terror raids on Wednesday, NO thanks to Mr Bob Quick who to be completely fair, made the right decision to leave this morning, thus causing the police to bring the raids forward to avoid any possible threat to the members of the operation, and any threat to any of the 60,975,000 people living in the UK! 

I make that figure in the full nine digits so hopefully we can get a perspective on what exactly I am getting across!

That no. 60,975,000 that is the population of the UK in the 2007 census, but it isn't just that, it is the number of people the security service protects. 

Its not just a number it is the UK.

When the 2007 terrorist attacks happened in London people were calling for an enquiry into how the security services didn't stop the bombings! 

This is outrageous! do the those same people congratulate the MI5 and MI6 for stopping recent attacks?

No

I haven't seen any organisations appear on the news feeds recently to say well done for not only avoiding a serious terrorist attack where many many people could have lost their lives.

So this is me telling anyone who reads this to say thank you.

London G20 Protests

I'm just about to get ready to leave and get some late breakfast on my day off, I watch the news, while scanning the news websites, as I do pretty much everyday, 

Most mornings I do this, it makes me feel a little more update with whats going on in the news. 

I have been terrified by most things, I wont lie, the new SAW ride in Thorpe park for example, bloody terrifying, and I haven't even been on it! but this is a little more serious, I was terrified at the images on the news regarding the protests at the G20 summit, on the first day "April fools day" as we all saw things got out of hand.

I'm struggling with a few things, and its not that the protesters were just and right in what they did, I'm just struggling with knowing who started the violence, and who's fault it is.

I believe that the vast majority of protesters were protesting peacefully, and that I believe is their right, but i did see a few sneaky clips on the ITV news update where the journo was questioning a few hooded and masked protesters who were stating that at the moment (in their own words) its too quiet and they were excited that somethings gonna Spark off.

That is where it started, some people went there not to protest, but to start trouble. But i don't blame them for the utter mess, I blame the MET.

The met were so unprepared and were in total chaos, and as my girlfriend told me, "had to go home and change into their riot gear" a nice quote considering that they looked completely out of their depth, and unable to handle the sheer mass of people protesting.

It is their job to keep the public safe from harm, and they didn't do their job.

But let me make this clear, I don't blame the individual officers, they did the best that could to protect themselves from the mass of people, but i blame the organisation, and the men higher up who organises the numbers of officers, the locations of predicted protests. 

It was a shame.

This is just a quick update to get my thoughts out. 

Off to get some lunch!
