I agree with you Cat to some extent. I think we should all be able to say what's on our mind, however, I think George also had a good point in that we should try to be considerate of our fellow KickAS members. I think you can find a way to say what's on your mind without being overly offensive.
That said, I didn't much like it when snotbox said

I'm sorry she feels that way about the United States. As an american, I'm proud of my country, and happen to think we're one of the best in the world.
Now, back to the subject at hand. I'd just like to say to our members who are living in England that I'm sorry this is happening in your country. Until the 9/11 incidents in our country, we didn't really know what it felt like to be "attacked". Now that we do, I think we can, for the first time, truly empathize with you.
I expect that you will continue to have alerts, just as we've had. I think this is the way the terrorists work. They do one big attack, and then after that, anytime things start to settle down, they "leak" information that there might be another attack, and watch as we all react. I think it gives them a big thrill to see us react. It's a real power trip for them. This is the same modis operandi that all abusers use. Do something to make someone afraid of you, then after that, just the threat of it happening again is enough.
I do have a question for those of you living in England. I thought your police officers don't carry guns. Has that changed?
