Demonstrations against Terror
Harry quotes Paul Anderson:The outrages in London are the work of enemies of humanity. There should be massive demonstrations throughout Britain this weekend to show our solidarity against them.
Conversely Tim Worstall says:
No grand demonstrations, few warlike chants, a desire for revenge, of course, but the reaction of the average man and woman in the street? Yes, you’ve tried it now bugger off. We’re not scared, no, you won’t change us. Even if we are scared, you can still bugger off.
I wonder what will happen. There were large demonstrations against terrorism in Spain after the Madrid bombings. But the Spanish have had a history of protesting against terrorism, whereas I can't (though I might be wrong) remember one major demonstration against IRA terrorism. I would imagine if it's going to happen it needs to be organised pretty quickly.
