[QUOTE="Danllan, post: 6607612, member: 8735"] All too true, and yet we seem to survive it well enough. I find myself on the horns of a dilemma in this matter; many times I have seen 'state surveillance' be of the greatest benefit to the general public, in terms of security and of combating crime. But, but, but... the State's ever growing power and intrusive reach instinctively jars me, I don't like it, my gut tells me it goes too far. Very, very few of us (even in NI) ever have or will suffer as a direct result of terrorism, but many of us are afraid of it and are ready to accept a great many things to help defeat it. The current 'balance' is far from my ideal, but that it is workable. What alternative would you suggest? [/QUOTE]
