I’ve had it in mind to post something over the past few days. I work in Edinburgh, where there have been lots of protests, even a few small riots because of the G8 meeting taking place nearby.
Then yesterday there were the attacks on London. At that point all of my little annoyances about the increased police presence (I’m glad they’re here, it’s just strange the effect it has on you when they’re so visible) went out the window. Then I read about some Comments made on a Fox “News” program inferring that the attacks were a good thing because they concentrated minds of world leaders on terrorism rather than global warming or debt relief.
I refuse to live in a climate of fear where terrorism is the primary issue!
