A Blind Eye

Illegal immigrants gathered openly in Trafalgar Square yesterday to protest against the “injustice” of not being British citizens, and yet for some reason they were not rounded up and put into camps ready for deportation. Still, I suppose the sight of the authorities taking seriously the integrity of the country and its laws might scare the voters away, millions of whom haven’t even arrived yet.

Oh! You are so wicked! ;)

It seems we have better natural defenses against physical barbarism than this intellectual form.

I was around that form yesterday for several minutes, and found no satisfaction even in leaving him speechless. I would rather stand inside a closet full of roaches.

Perhaps that is why we prefer to divert our eyes.
