Re: Lack of Patriot Act hurts the UK
Hmmm, let see. The U.S. has currently made more than 5000 arrests under the Patroit Act. Number of convictions? ZERO.
What would have really been helpful in possibly preventing the bombing attacks in London, was if the Chimpmeister and his cronies hadn't burned the UK's Al-Queda Mole, Amir Khan, for what turned out to be a useless bust in Afghanistan...

Re: Lack of Patriot Act hurts the UK
[ QUOTE ]
The UK is having problems tracking the terrorist cells that coused the recent bombings in part because they do not have the use of some of the procedures that the US does in the Patriot Act. Many of the muslims the Brits were watching were totally surprised by the bombings. The ones they watched were not aware of the other cells planning these acts. Now the British are asking the US for some help from the US, because the US can use provisions in the Patriot Act to investigate cells that may have been in contact with the bombers. The Patriot Act saves lives in the US. Don't you forget it!

[/ QUOTE ] The idea is to prevent the various terrorist acts before they happen. Attentive citizens tipped off Scotland Yard - hardly cause for celebrating great police investigative work. With a Patriot type act, they may have caught them before 7/7.

Re: Lack of Patriot Act hurts the UK
Erm, we already know who the bombers were. So much for your theory.

Re: Lack of Patriot Act hurts the UK
Like I said. The brits already know how to deal with this kind of thing - better than the US even with its mighty Patriot Act.

Re: Lack of Patriot Act hurts the UK
None of our actual Patriots, the founding fathers or the football team members, would say that the Patriot Act is mighty.
In fact, our founding fathers might find its title rather ironic. The football team would wonder what ironic meant.
