It is a police responsibility to prosecute whoever goes into my unlocked house without permission -- even if he only uses a toilet (thus using some water and electricity) without breaking anything.

Only the English love barren lifeless deserts and would want to preserve them in their pristine state.

Yup. 2000 was stolen; the jury's out on 2004, and still nobody really cares.
But another glimpse of nipple would bring America to the brink of collapse.
We now return you to normal programming: people kicking shit out of each other.
