You Londoners best pay attention unless you want 5 in the noggin!
Turns out he didn’t have a bomb, and turns out he wasn’t one of the four bombers Thursday. And if it turns out ultimately that he had nothing to do with anything, no doubt there will be hell to pay. But the police say he was linked to the terror probe, so let’s wait and see.
Meantime, got to admire the cojones of those Brit cops to go after him like that. All of this trumps any of my other complaints that the Brits weren’t making the right noises about fighting terror. They like to go about things a bit more quietly than us. Not my style, but okay, fine — as long as they get the five in the noggin of the right bomber boy. They do that and I’m fine.
So for the moment, alls well. Just catch the four bombers. Five in the noggin is fine. Don’t complain that sounds barbaric. We’re fighting barbaric.
And if you get the wrong guy, who cares?
The devolution of modern society continues…
