FRACTIVISM momentary discomfort only

The Limpet’s monthly look at the World and its troubles.     A world in which tap-water burns and peace-keepers attack the peaceful protectors of our natural resources.  Corrupt council’s plans to bury beaches under boulders are rejected by the government and thug-cops kill teenaged artists in the street.  Dissent and protest are stifled by governments and their praetorian guards.  120 Tibetans burn themselves to death whilst the World is fed a diet of ‘celebrities’, sports and techno-gadgets.  At least Penzance still has its beach, and that's what gave birth to The Limpet in the first place....

OOOhh-Aaaarrr! It’s Cattle-Prod-Cornwall!                 A recent survey by the Grudniad newspaper looked into the phenomenon of electro-torture by state-agents or police taser-usage, as the liberals prefer to call it.  As most of you probably know by now, a stun-gun can be used in two ways – either as a harpoon, when the barbs are fired into the victim or ‘force-recipient’ in newspeak; or as a cattle-prod, when the weapon is applied directly to the person.  It is significant that the top three police-forces (sorry- “Services”) in the ‘Drive-Stun-Charts’ are all rural, rustic forces:  Wiltshire;  Norfolk and Devon & Cornwall Constabulary.  Perhaps these cops are all ex-farm boys, used to rounding up their cows with electric cattle-prods…  In Devon & Cornwall, over 10% of ALL taser “usage” has been in “Stun-Drive” or “Cattle-Prod Mode”.  Yeehaa cowboy!
