Citizens of the USA are 8 times more likely to be killed by a police officer than by a terrorist.

Huge discussion happening on email about the nay-boors. The cops were called again last Friday, apparently. I wasn't aware because I had to go out because it was one of those nights. Scumbags are the scourge of the middle classes.

If you see a rat running around it's usually in trouble. They normally stay below. Going above they could be killed. Staying below they could starve to death, when they're in trouble. Bitten by the fecking pecking order. Risk it or die. The lower down the pecking order the mammal is, the more conservative they become. The animals learn fear. One population could fear red. The other could fear green. Yet they're the same creatures. Different predilictions.
7 spot ladybirds are poisonous. The 2 spots are edible. They're different sizes. The birds can't tell them apart so good. I wonder who got their head beat in last night. Who got stabbed or burned or crunched beneath the wheels of a bad driver?
Reports say that at least 17 people have been killed in a missile attack in a border area of Pakistan. It is understood the target was the al-Qaeda deputy leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri.
Again, the greatest force for destruction in society is not the individual, it's the government. That's how it should be.
What's pissing off the US about terrorism and mideast governments is they lost their monopoly on mass destruction. These days, it spreads like the internet. Now anybody can make a barrel of poison gas or make a bomb out of everyday objects. Anger is more important than human flesh and bone and lives longer. But the Buddah says, holding on to anger is like holding a hot coal getting ready to throw it. You are the one getting burned.
In the orange half light the sulphuric air screeches along the hollow streets. One shellsuited gentleman shoving a shopping trolly along the tram tracks. Another tracksuit sitting in it. Both shouting from the bottom of their cans. FFFUUUUUCK!
FFFFFFFFFFuuuuuUUUUUUCKhh! It's 1130pm. The kids are gone underground. The overgrown kids are running like rats above the surface. They're coming towards me. Pushing their stolen shopping cart. It's not really stolen, because they don't really want it. But they're going to abandon it, on the track probably, causing a derailment, not. Derail the tram before the rails do.
Penetrate the habitat and push the buttons. Lesbian swans lay eggs for each other and sit on them. There's nothing in the yolk, naturally, in this unnatural union in the wilderness. In the urban jungle the culchies are brutishly despoiling their adoptive city. That's the done thing. They do it with abandon. Society is anti-social itself.
Meanwhile Big Brother contestants talk about their egos, while Europe is aflood. In a world where anything goes, nothing is sacred and we're losing all the minor battles. Things are just sicker now than ever we knew before. Things are more psychopathic. People not just don't give a shit, they aspire to do bad. Don't know what good is. Individuals want to take the initiative, or smaller groups than the government, to destroy.
Oh guess what, the terrorist was not in the houses that the Yanks bombed in the hills of Pak from the basements of Langley. Does that make the dead innocent victims?

A cyclist gets crushed by a truck at North King st. She was only on her way to the shop. Shame on lorrys. Shame on the city.

CALLER: Yah. I class myself as being intelligent enough, Joe. It's car crash television. Fascinating.
JOE: Carcrash Warehouse called off the Big Brother sponsorship. India has declared war on Britain.
CALLER (condascending): They're dumb as a box of rocks. Apple didn't fall far from the tree in Jade's case. They'll never understand, they're thick. Schulpa speaks better English than any of the people from England. (Caller doesn't realise they ol' Injuns are fluent in English by birth but have merely a divergent dialect and mulitiple languages).
JOE: Mike Turphy was on Ryan Mupridy and he reckons we've leapfrogged England.
CALLER: Oh without a doubt

Kids taking mobile phone videos will get the ultimate scoop. Beatings and stabbings are box office. Especially if they're real, someone gets really hurt and they're otherwise censored from mainstream TV.

Locals up in arms, not. Attack in Finglas in a pub last night where two men marched in with a hammer and a sword and cut some fella's arm off. The other fella punched him with his stump, not realising his hand was absent. He was a nice guy, really. H'armless.
18:17
Here Deano, givus a hand here, will ya? Djaknowarimeeeeeeeen?

A rambling profusion of beech poplar and oak. It's being sold off for a limestone quarry. By the Forestry Commission, the people in charge of maintaining it. Big hole full of nothingness. Scarred landscape and that. "There's rock everywhere, why do the forestry agency need to sell the forest."
18:39
Do you want your hand back?
20:04
I can hear men pissing over my head in this apartment. Why they don't sit down?
20:05
The ladies from the block want me to log nightly the details of my neighbooors and their dance music, door kicking exploits. I'll moan a bit and they'll coo, then I'll do it.
