So if the Brit NHS is such a wonderful thing, why is Texas so horrible

for wanting to pass a law less-strict in some ways about abortion?
Availability: Under certain conditions
Gestational limit: 24 weeks
Conditions: Abortion is allowed in England, Wales and Scotland to save a woman's life, for health, economic or social reasons. Two registered medical practitioners must certify that the required medical grounds have been met.
The procedure must be carried out, except in emergency, in a National Health Service hospital or in a nursing home, private hospital or other approved place. The consent of the spouse is not a prerequisite of the medical termination.


And yet more of the result desired by the dirtbags running Fast & Furious:
A high-powered rifle lost in the ATF’s Fast and Furious controversy was used to kill a Mexican police chief in the state of Jalisco earlier this year, according to internal Department of Justice records, suggesting that weapons from the failed gun-tracking operation have now made it into the hands of violent drug cartels deep inside Mexico.
This is exactly what the bastards wanted to happen, so they could blame gun owners in the US for all the evils of Mexico and demand more laws.

How about a law that 'Any federal official or LE agent who participates in the intentional violation of law shall serve ten years in prison'?


Yes, let's hear it for (fG)Britain, which we're supposed to love the idea of being like!
Duwayne Brooks has expressed concerns over Scotland Yard’s admission that he was secretly recorded as part of an alleged police smear campaign against friends and relatives of Stephen Lawrence, the murdered black teenager.
Yeah, I'd have concerns too.
Mr Grieve said he authorised secret recording of a conversation between his officers, Mr Brooks and his lawyers in May 2000. 

He said he deeply regretted “any distress, dismay or alarm that my decisions may have caused” but insisted the decision was made “within ethical frameworks”.
Which is why they've worked so hard to hide it.


Oh, and that wonderful NHS is going broke.  Or it already is and they're trying to drag it out.


Speaking of Britain, "IT'S HORRIBLE!  It's going to hit 86F FOR THE HIGHS!!"
Son's part of the world has been having what would be considered damn nice weather for this time of year down here: highs in the 70's and 80's, lows 50's & 60's.  According to him it's wonderful; lots of the locals are bitching about the heat.


More from across the pond:
A teenage gap-year student was knifed to death in the street in broad daylight by a "laughing" stranger in Manchester, a jury has heard.

Kieran Crump-Raiswell, 18, was heading to look for a job when Imran Hussain, 27, walked up to him and "without warning" stabbed him four times in the chest, Manchester Crown Court was told.
Get the feeling there's going to be more of this kind of thing?


Yeah, it's a Brit news day.  In this case, it appears that the Blue Wall stands in Britain, too.
The Scotland Yard marksman found by an official inquiry to have unlawfully killed a man he shot six times, was dubbed a "serial killer" by one of his own bosses, the Guardian has learned.
...
The CPS had previously decided E7 should not face criminal charges, following an investigation by the Independent Police Complaints Commission, which the Rodney family described as flawed. The IPCC failed to uncover crucial evidence discovered by the inquiry undermining E7's account and leading to Holland's devastating report.

The inquiry almost never happened. The authorities said crucial evidence concerning intelligence which led to the police suspecting Rodney and two others, could not be disclosed.
...
Conservative MP David Davis said: "There is also a real question to be raised over why the police sought to have parts of this inquiry held in secret … [It] is extremely difficult to judge whether these claims are to protect real intelligence secrets, or simply to cover up the embarrassment of the organisation concerned."
Three guesses which, Davis.

Back over here, how can Kerry damage something he doesn't really have in the first place?


And now, having done some casting earlier, need to do some sorting and QC.
