Biometric ID Cards Trialled in Glasgow
StuWho writes "The Register is reporting a trial of Biometric ID Cards in Glasgow, Scotland. The trial is one of several tests prior to the implimentation of a universal UK ID card. It also carries reports of how you can evade the sensors by doing something as simple as crying. 'It costs the UK 1.3 billion a year, and facilitates organised crime, illegal immigration, benefit fraud, illegal working and terrorism,' Home Office Minister Des Browne said. He then said that the ID card would fix all this, but did not say how. It's not only in the US where governments are using the excuse of terrorism to infringe on civil liberties."
Tell that to newspaper reporters.
Silly rabbit
You have to watch out for people that dress like hippies nowadays as you never know what they are on (Speed, Crack, Heroin) or what they should be on (Thorzine, Prozac, Lithium). Perhaps it was like that in the 60's too with mentions of peace and love when they were just as violent as the rest of society normally but when they faced the desperate life of a rambler, homeless 'kid' or worse their illusory life of goodwill towards all men when forced to relent their silly psuedo-intellectual views (that verge on being pedantic, but can't because they haven't really learned anything and are only able to regurgitate knowledge wholesale) on things they snap like a cheap plastic spork. Watch out!
