I am, Backwoodsman, all in favour of justice. It seems you want a police state. There are numerous well documented instances of PC Plod fitting people up, and those given the task of enforcing the criminal law should not be breaking it or indeed undermining the rule of law. Now, you were saying that the reasons that football hooligans were not arrested and charged was down to PC-Clown or Euro-Numpty influence. Have you any rational basis for that or have you been reading the Daily Mail again?

My immediate reaction to this news about cage fighting is that I would be surprised if it were lawful and if it were not grounds for social workers to intervene in the upbringing of the children in question - but you dislike social workers as part of the nanny-pc-state, don't you, so precisely what do you think should be the response of the state?
