First they came for the press officers

marilyn.JPGReports today suggest that people with multiple mobile phones should be considered potential terror subjects.

What other groups of people, beyond Al Qaeda, tend to have several phones? I mean press officers, not Hollywood starlets.

I'm nervous. I've got about seven phones in my house. But I am not a terrist. Seriously.

*sigh*

This is what led to the de Menezes shooting. He was "acting suspiciously" because he got off a bus and got on it again. Whipping people up into a frenzy makes them see suspicious behaviour where it doesn't exist, is counter-productive and dangerous.

This also reminds me of "How to Spot a Communist" propaganda from the 50s US, I will try and find a link to them...

Goodness me.

I too have several phones and, although a number of folk definitely have described me as dodgy in the past I'm not sure that terrorism is what they were thinking......

These things are just pathetic.

*goes off to buy several more mobile phones*
