#5  Anonymoose,

It is sadly, now a tautology.

#4  Mods: Do we need a "Britain gone mad" tag parallel to the "Britain" tag? That is, would it be redundant?

#3  The money quote from the linked article about the 14 yr old:

Some people, apparently, do not have to watch everything they say. The less control the authorities have with Muslims, the more control they want to exercise over non-Muslims. This strange mix of powerful censorship of public debate, yet little control over public law and order, has by some been labeled anarcho-tyranny. The reason why European authorities are becoming increasingly totalitarian in their censorship efforts is to conceal the fact that they are no longer willing or able to uphold even the most basic security of their citizenry.

#2  Yes. But it's not a pathology so much as a deliberate choice.

Offload all responsibility for civic life, for adjusting to the demands of living with others and for self discipline (not to mention protection) to the Nanny State.

That way you won't have to make any personal efforts or bear any responsibility for choices.

#1  Good Lord.

To quote Heinlein's "Citizen of the Galaxy", "incitement to riot is no excuse for starting a riot". The woman should be facing attempted assault with a deadly weapon (or its British equivalent), with whatever they can add on for attacking a fricking 10-year-old kid.

The kid should get a stern lecture, and pointedly told that a smart mouth can net him a severe beating. But facing charges from the police?

Has Britain gone insane?!
