Re: [NetBehaviour] A Visit from the Thought Police

[Alan Sondheim]

Hi Michael, Can you say more about this? As you know guns are a serious 
disease, perhaps even with Covid, the most serious disease here; at one 
point a few years ago I had to "clear" myself in western Pennsylvania with 
a 17-year-old white kid on a bike with a revolver who told me he was the 
best defense in an emergency until the police came... It's constant and 
it's frightening and along with covid contributing to everyone's anxiety - 
that, and the lack of universal healthcare. We are a country good at 
killing ourselves, probably the best among the industrialized countries. 
I'm scared out of my mind. What is going on in England? Good grief -


Best, Alan, be well

The other day my partner and I noticed that students in the school ( 11-16
years) adjacent to our house were being drilled in the use of weapons. I
took a photo, carefully anonymized it & posted it to twitter asking if this
was acceptable...

A couple of days later we had a visit from Essex Police. I recorded it and
you can see it here.

Brits on this list might like to ask themselves that if this can happen
before the government's proposed new legislation, just what life will be
like if it goes through?
