Does nobody care?
Holy crap. Tell me, why is it that when a foreigner gets some stuff, it is evil, but when a "jolly good englishmen" gets it, it never makes th headlines. I really don't know what to say.
Pardon my rudeness, I cannot abide useless people.
I know what you mean pgg. Another example: Just a week ago, a Christian man hijcked a Turkish Airlines flight bound for Istanbul. The flight landed safely in Brindisi, Italy and there were no major injuries but I bet this would be a much bigger deal if the hijacker was a Muslim.
I don't know about you gaminggeek... But I don't think the average everyday British joe buys "a rocket launcher, and a nuclear and biological suit" :o
Anyway, yah...I would think that would at least make 2nd page if not 1st page news. Wierd.
Wassa BNP?
British national party.
All it's policies are racist against all non-white & non-uk residents. Very much a minority party.
But my point is, because they are white, uk residents, the press doesn't care. Unlike the "islamic terrorist" raids recently - splashed all over the news, and then very quietly released without charge.

Seriously. In burnley, police have seized chemicals which could be used to make explosives (it's been described as the biggest haul in UK history), a rocket launcher, and a nuclear and biological suit in a raid on a house last week, in which they arrested two people. They've been accused by the prosecution of having "a master plan". You'd think it would have been front page news?
Oh, they were white former BNP members.

... Would it have been reported if they were asian? Would it have been used to justify killing innocent men, women and children? Is news not worth reporting if it can't be used to fuel overseas "interventions"?
