: Terrorism , or violent , non-terrorist related crime ?
It's certainly frightening that , indisputably there are a few amongst us who want to commit mass-murder supposedly in the name of religion , however all the plots seem to be being intercepted before they have the chance to happen at the moment , and something like 7/7 or worse inevitably will happen here again , which I do'nt worry about  as regards  me personally living here , and  I'm aware of the slight possibility when occasionally in London , but it does'nt stop me going there .
I'm more alarmed by the vicious , usually unprovoked , sometimes entirely random stabbings and/or beatings , in England in particular though also elsewhere in the UK , which we keep hearing of week after week .
Again I do'nt think it would happen in my home town , though at least some of the likely causal factors , i.e sickeningly violent video games , extreme binge-drinking and addiction to 'super-strength' 'skunk' cannabis may be present  here .
And the possibility of being attacked by strangers does'nt stop me going elsewhere , though I always aim to be sensible , and drunkenly swaying along city streets , alone , in the early hours is never a good idea .
As is'nt allowing oneself to be drawn into any unnecessary confrontations with strangers .
And who now will dare take the risk of , however politely , asking an intimidating looking young man , or a gang of them , to stop being a nuisance ?
So , what issue does bother you most , one of the afore mentioned , or . . . The longer term consequences of ongoing mass immigration into the UK  ?
On the radio this morning I heard a customs officer who's been assigned to the new 'border control' team at one of London's airports saying that he and his colleagues are just there as 'window dressing' ; All they are told to do is to be a visible prescence , not to question or search anyone entering Britain .
Or . . . The possibly looming 'credit crunch'/recession , or , bird-'flu , global-warming , alien-abduction , or  something else ?
