A man with a heart condition was arrested, shackled, put in a DNA database, locked up for 18 hours and taken to court after police claim he dropped an apple core in the latest shocking example of enviro-tyranny being metered out by a cadre of brownshirt "community support officers" that now patrol British cities harassing citizens.
Under the pretext of ninnying pointless enviro-crime laws, thug enforcers have been given the power to micromanage our lives and get as many people in the system as possible, while creating a chilling climate and, allied with the millions of surveillance cameras trained on us, a sense that every single aspect of our behavior is under close scrutiny.
Our tax money - the amount of which we hand over increases year upon year - pays for police to hunt down and prosecute completely innocent people for allegedly dropping items of food while violent crime soars and people are afraid to walk the streets. What is wrong with this picture?
