What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals.
The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite.
Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.

This dumb actor is turning out to be a hell of a governor. He hasn't increased taxes, he's on track to finally pass a budget on schedule, and he's just bettered the rating of the state's bonds. And he's ruthlessly pursuing a pro-growth agenda: The Governor then used the political capital earned in the referendum to end years of paralysis in the state legislature. He turned his attention to California's disgraceful worker's compensation system, which is in large part responsible for the state's abysmal business climate. Indeed, in recent years, premiums have increased by 50% for some employers; in 2002, workers' comp attorneys had collected $226 million, $31 million more than they had in 2001 -- all as California was losing as many as 10,000 manufacturing jobs each month. When the legislature balked at the prospect of reform, the Governor threatened to seek another referendum. Mindful of the Governor's success in promoting the March initiatives, the lawmakers caved, and passed worker's compensation reforms. While the legislation is far from perfect, it does prohibit "doctor shopping", and mandates that disability reports rely on objective American Medical Association guidelines to evaluate the severity of an injury. Much remains to be done, but Governor Schwarzenegger shows few signs of abandoning the conservative economic principles that have served him so well. He has hired efficiency experts to conduct state performance reviews, in order to identify structural reforms that will assist efforts to control spending. Squarely in the crosshairs are the California laws that prohibit outsourcing of state services, even when such contracting could save the state $9 billion, according to a study by the Reason Foundation. And emboldened by Arnold Schwarzenegger's success, some Democratic legislators are actually supporting Republican calls to renegotiate the obscenely expensive contracts that Davis and the Democratic legislature gave the prison guards' union -- long one of Sacramento's premier "special interests." Not too shabby. California is of course the most important economic actor in the country, and as California's economy strengthens, so too must the nation's. Update: He's the most popular governor in California in 13 years, with an approval rating of 65%, despite being a Republican in a Democratic state. How Abu Ghraib fits in with this poll is unclear at this point. posted by Ace at 01:45 PM Comments Excellent. I can still remember all the sneering jackasses during the Recall who said things like "You don't hire ballet dancers to fix your plumbing, why would you hire an actor to run your state? Leave that to the professionals." I think not leaving government in the hands of an exclusive political class is a great thing. I mean, that's what they did in the USSR. And in France. Posted by: Moonbat_One on May 27, 2004 02:25 PM The Governor used a chem-lite in a movie once - there's your link. You could just tell he wanted to stick it on someone's ass, the lousy Republican. Posted by: ccwbass on May 27, 2004 03:15 PM ccwbass, It's not a bad idea, most democrats need a chem-lite in their ass so they can distinguish it from a hole in the ground. Posted by: Big E on May 27, 2004 04:13 PM CCWBass, Are you sure that's Arnold Schwarzenegger you're thinking of? I've seen almost all of his movies -- except for the latest dreck -- and I don't remember a chem-light. I remember a chem-light in Rambo III with Stallone. Posted by: ace on May 27, 2004 05:03 PM Call me cynical, but could the recent TV ads (in San Diego) featuring a female corrections officer "beaten last week" complaining "that the green line is too thin and getting thinner" have anything to do with Arnie wanting renegotiate their contract?
