Caught out again - by Richard... Thursday, November 11, 2010

The police are complaining that they didn't see the violence coming at the Millbank demo. Yet students from a number of universities say they co-ordinated the Millbank raid via Facebook weeks ago. One 19-year-old student from Bournemouth University, said: "This has been arranged for ages and I’m surprised the police didn't do their homework."

But it was exactly the same with the London rave a fortnight ago. That had been planned well ahead and had been all over the internet. But the police don't get the internet, any more than do the politicians. They don't understand it, and as a result don't use it properly or effectively. Thus, we have an alternative system of communication to which these groups are completely oblivious.

Their great problem, of course, is that they believe the internet is just another means of getting their message out to a captive audience. They are incapable of understanding that the "conversation" is there, going on without them. They are not part of it because they have no listening mode. And so, they are going to get caught out again and again and again. They will never learn because they can't learn.

It's all Hitler's fault - by Richard...

The demise of the polar bear has nothing to do with global warming. And here is the proof - a Nazi U-Boat in Arctic waters, around 1943, the crew proudly displaying its trophy. Note how one carries a machine pistol.

Killing polar bears was obviously the real agenda. This is all but admitted in the caption: "U-Boot-Besatzung mit Gewehren posiert an Bord mit totem Eisbär". Sinking Allied shipping was only a cover for destroying the world's ecosystem and bringing civilisation as we know it to a halt. Nearly 70 years on, it is pretty obvious that the plan has all but succeeded.

Interesting - by Richard... Wednesday, November 10, 2010

Hundreds of people were evacuated from the building housing the Tory Party headquarters today as a national demonstration against tuition fees descended into chaos. A window was smashed at Millbank Tower in central London and eyewitnesses said students attempted to force their way into the building.

This is according to The Independent. The Daily Mail has the students chanting "Tory scum" as well, which means they seem to have acquired a little education. The pink sign betrays less erudition - the lad could at least spell the name right.

Dozens of police officers stationed outside the entrance of Tory Towers were overwhelmed as the crowd of thousands pelted them with rocks and bottles. Reinforcements in riot gear were deployed in an effort to stem the damage but appeared unwilling to engage the troublemakers, says The Daily Telegraph. Obviously, chanting "Tory scum" is the right thing to do!

What is interesting though is that the students are demonstrating against the Tory Party and not the government. Mind you, they would have to go to Brussels to do the latter, so the Tories are as good a target as any - and the pink sign, apart from the spelling, certainly bears an appropriate message, if for different reasons.

Meanwhile, The Guardian is running a live blog, with some students complaining about "Tory cuts", although I think they've missed a letter out. However, the Daily Mash also had a reporter on the scene, and their report adds a few important details.

Another king, another country - by Richard...

Well, would you die for Sarkozy, The Leader Of The Kermits? I don't think Mary Ellen Synonwould, especially as the deal with the Kermits is all about setting up the euro-army.

It is interesting – if not a little alarming – that this issue has disappeared from the MSM so quickly, with so little comment, letting Euroslime Dave get away with the biggest sell-out since Heath took us in to the accursed EEC. At least some commentators are keeping it going though, while others indulge in vomitus.
