Cops use terror powers to lift BBC man's laptop after ISIS interview

Dan Paul

Re: @x 7 -- @AC (the naive one) Works for me

Sure, they were colluding even to get their and do the interview. As far as "risking their life", too bad if they get kidnapped and beheaded.

The fact is that ALL of you chicken shit cowards won't give your own military any credit for their risks to life and limb every day so fuck these so called journalists. They are unprepared, naïve and complete dolts if they take the word of terrorists.

Re: @ Lost all faith... -- @Dan Paul: So What?

Perhaps mainstream for you, but too little, too late, too lackluster for most Christians. No where near the outrage of the announcer when complaining one flowershop owner who did not want to serve gays. That overshadowed the murders of Christians exponentially.

By the way, you might want to understand since it is readily apparent you can't. There is a huge difference between being a Christian and being a fundamentalist anything.

Dan Paul

Re: @Dan Paul: So What?

Over here, we see that the BBC makes up the news about the US the way they see fit EVERDAY. They don't report it, they make it up to foster their own agenda.

Especially if it has something to do with our police, guns or military or our religious beliefs.

The BBC are full of atheists, leftists, busybodies, anti gun nutters and gays and they need to go back to their own country and fester in their own mess.

Dan Paul

Re: @Dan Paul: So What?

Not compared to the constant yammering against Israel, giving part time, intermittent half hearted coverage is even less beneficial than no coverage in some cases.

It still goes on, BTW where are all the hashtags? Where is the uproar, where is the outrage?

No, half hearted to no coverage is all the Christians will ever get because the atheist leftist media gives them short shrift versus giving terrorists all the coverage.

Re: So What? @Dan Paul

The IRA "freedom fighters" have NOTHING top do with the NRA or gun laws you stupid ignorant twat. I support the NRA and I support a Free Ireland devoid of British interference. You stole their land like you did all over the world.

The issue there was that YOU BRITISH DELIBERATELY gave them no other choice but to revolt against PROTESTANT rule. In order to throw that rule off, your actions almost justified their attacks on civvies.

We helped the Afghans against the Russian, just not admittedly the right way. Bringing up Nelson Mandela is interesting because he was considered political here, not a terrorist like the British government did.

There is NO such ambiguity about ISIS/ISIL/DAESH. They deserve to die, each and everyone of them.

Dan Paul

Re: So What?

That idea "making an unperson" goes back to the Quakers and their practice of shunning an individual or group that stepped over the line.

In the same way that terrorist have. And YES the enemies of the state usually ARE our enemies. Too bad....they are a collective waste of the gift of life and don't deserve better.

Censoring a criminal is done everytime they are convicted and go to prison. They don't deserve and compassion as they have none for you and you are a fool to offer any in return.

Dan Paul

Re: So What?

You freaking idiots still don't grasp the fact that you don't give terrorists ANY airtime, do you.

It's NOT a matter of "knowing your enemy". You just don't give free advertising to murderers.

Dan Paul

Re: So What? @Dan

The media gave them a voice and that's exactly what they are trying to get from western media.

It's the same thing as helping create them. You're helping them to spread their message. All they are is a repackaged Al Qaeda that's nastier and more organized. You think our military created them, but that also shows me where your loyalty lies. If you don't give them a platform to recruit from, you weaken them considerably.

Dan Paul

Re: So What?

In those incidents, the people who were doing the reporting were not the terrorists. It's pretty simple, you don't need to give the terrorists THEMSELVES any airtime or play video of flag burning or other threats. Audio of people screaming "death to whoever" and Allah Akbar etc. does not need to be played.

Some news outlets played the entire videos of people being burned alive. Excerpts would have been enough to get the point across.

Instead what you have is the glorification of such actions by the media in the guise of "reporting".

What you don't get from the BBC is the real video of murdering Palestinians attacking Jews with knives.

You get the reporter LYING saying there was no knife, while uncut video clearly showed he had a knife.

Dan Paul

Re: So what?

THOSE are totally different examples and I'm smart enough to know the difference. Are you? I didn't think so....

The western "press" should not have any legal protection when they deliberately give terrorists a public voice.

Let Al Jazeera do it.

Dan Paul

Re: So what?

As I said before, all these so called "interviews" do is give the enemy a chance to spread propaganda and lies. It is the same thing as aiding and abetting the enemy in a wartime setting and should be treated that way. If you have knowledge of the enemy's plans or location, withholding that information from the government is a crime.

This is not "Journalism", you are literally putting murderers on a soap box in Piccadilly Square and giving them free airtime to say what they want. Why do the rights of terrorists exceed the rights of the victims? The terrorists took their lives so they cannot speak. The terrorists should never have a public voice for that very reason alone.

Dan Paul

Re: @AC (the naive one) Works for me

Unfortunately x7, this forum is full of people who support and condone the actions of these murdering terrorists. Especially as it applies to the killings of Americans and Jews.

They have been brainwashed by the BBC and other left leaning media since they first learned to read.

These are much the same people who leave Europe to go fight for ISIS and Al Qaeda. Is it any wonder that their own governments treat them as hostiles?

Dan Paul

Any Wartime Field "Journalist"

that interviews the Enemy, deserves what they get.

If they conveyed confidential information to them, then they ARE spies and should be shot.

Dan Paul

Re: Give me liberty or...

I think if you bothered to read and comprehend the subject you will find that the USA is actually a REPUBLIC.

One that rejected the unjust rule of monarchists many years ago and were considered by those monarchists to be terrorists. Just like your government consider the IRA to be terrorists and did the very same things that you complain about now.

However, we did not decapitate or burn our captives alive (The British did even worse during the Revolution) and hide behind a so called religion to do so and that makes us better than ISIS or the IRA. The fact that some of our citizens supported Sinn Fein during those years only affects THOSE who supported them, not all citizens but you damn us all nonetheless. I don't damn all people of the middle east, only those in ISIS, Al Qaeda and Iran.

And I know that I am quite a bit freer than any of you Europeans who gave up freedom long ago for the false security of conformity.

Too bad for him, he is now a terrorist sympathizer, and should be shunned if not arrested.

Dan Paul

Re: Works for me @frank ly

The publicity of simply being in the news validates these terrorists actions and promotes their cause. If you believe that BBC is completely neutral and just "reports" the news instead of ginning up something else that gets more ratings than "reporting" (just the facts ma'am), you are sadly mistaken and yes you have been infected with their terrorist views.

Your arrogance, naivety and inability to comprehend how the media and terrorists are manipulating you is astounding.

Dan Paul

Re: @AC (the naive one) Works for me

How about providing aid and abetting the enemy for one form of treason? In the form of free publicity by interviewing them. And since you would have had to contact them to arrange the interview, you had information related to the location of known criminals that you are obliged by law to give to the government.

But then again "fruitoftheloon" YOU are definitely pro islamist so you wouldn't know the difference.

Dan Paul

Re: So What?

This has nothing to do with censorship and everything to do with the truth. The truth that the media has been lying to the public for a very long time and that they are behind the glorification of terrorism and make up most of what they "report" to fit their agenda.

If you do not give terrorism a platform, it soon loses much of its effectiveness.

Dan Paul

Re: @Dan Paul: So What?

BOTH the BBC and Al Jazeera and the vast majority of the media today, glorify and amplify the actions of known terrorists and present viewpoints that all existing western authority is bad and that the view of these terrorist is good.

AS I SAID BEFORE, reporting the news is fine, making it up and promoting it as the truth is NOT.

For example there has been almost no mainstream press coverage of the Christians (Yazidis) that have been killed and or raped by Islamists but there is PLENTY of press coverage when some Israeli kills a knife wielding Palestinian. These media outlets orgasm all over themselves when they can negatively portray our military or culture. They deliberately PROMOTE the terrorist views of ISIS instead. It is not news, it is PUBLICITY. These "journalists" even deliberately LIED on TV saying that the Palestinian terrorist did not have a knife when the VIDEO CLEARLY SHOWE ONE.

Furthermore they twist and edit peoples words into convoluted incomprehensible statements that no longer come close to the original events. This is the same thing as lying to the public.

All in order to make the world into the "liberal paradise" they want it to be.

As such, they are terrorist sympathizers not news outlets. They deserve everything they get as a result.

Dan Paul

So What?

Have an upvote. The media only has a responsibility to report the news, not manufacture it.

Interviewing known terrorists like ISIS in order to manufacture a contrarian viewpoint shouldn't warrant any protection for these so called "journalists". Even giving a voice to these criminals makes me suspect the news outlets intentions.

It should be illegal to provide any media exposure to or for terrorists. They do not deserve any consideration and their supporters deserve deportation (at a minimum).

Re: Probable Cause

It's a movie prop and those are very tightly controlled by the movie weapon master so they can ONLY fire blanks. Add some special effects and people think it's a real machine gun.

The visit you could expect after winning this item is not the same agency you were thinking of though.

The Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms oversees who can have a fully automatic firearm and these regulations are also modified by State laws. South of the Mason-Dixon line, most people called them "Revenuers" because they'd bust up "stills" and dump liquor. In addition they chase smuggled or untaxed tobacco. BATF already has a poor record among these police agencies.

Since we already have enough laws and law enforcement for most crimes, BATF is beginning to look more than useless. The states already regulate these issues to death. We don't need TWO bureaucracies doing the same thing.

Re: Not a big fan of Lessing myself,

Jealous much Jake? If Trump can have a "European super-model gold-digger" why can't you? Is that it? As long as he has a pre-nup he should be able to do anything he wants with her.

The fact that Trump has only spent 3 million of his OWN MONEY (No PACS are involved) when Hillarity has already spent 30 million seems to escape all you Trump bashers here. She's spending 3 to 1 and getting nowhere near all the free publicity that Trump is.

Trump has more business acumen than any candidate running or not and he will not owe his soul to a political action committee as he is financially independent. The "running dog lackey" Demoncrats are most afraid of that fact as they can't tolerate candidates that are really free of undue influence. The Democrats owe a whole lotta money (and their souls) to some cigar chomping men in a back room.

Both NBC and all it's subsidiary networks are obviously biased against him and they should be prevented from ever hosting another debate ever. The chicken shit questions they asked were rather telling. But the funny thing is that the crappy moderators lifted the skirt on liberal media bias in a way that only served to help the Republican cause by making it too real to ignore.

All you hypocrites in Europe just make me laugh when you call Trump xenophobic when it turns out that every government in Europe is already sinking under the weight of immigrants that they don't really want and are finally saying so. And many are putting up fences, walls and stationing police and military to prevent their entry. And if we hadn't been more interested in apologizing and less interested in keeping the military gains we made in Iraq and Afghanistan; there might be less of a need for people to migrate from those countries and Syria because ISIS may not have had free reign.

We don't need any more immigrants here in the US because we ALREADY have too many illegal ones. Trump has at least been upfront and truthful about his views on the subject, unlike most of your leaders. Illegals need to be sent home, they broke the law and we don't need any more people like that. Legal immigrants shouldn't have less rights than illegal ones.

Trump has the chutzpah that no Democrat will ever express. We don't need another gutless, wimp, apologist running this country and we don't need another cheating, thieving liar.

Trump as President will scare the scat out of Putin and his cronies because Trump won't take anymore of his BS and will call his bluff.

The only GOOD DRONE is a DEAD DRONE. Y'hear me, scumbags?!

Dan Paul

Re: "The only GOOD DRONE is a DEAD DRONE. Y'hear me, scumbags?!" @Dabsy

The fact remains Dabsy, since you never grew up in a household with guns, you should stop commenting about a subject that you have NO experience with besides spreading your ridiculous FUD.

The mere fact someone possesses guns and has children does NOT mean they are "psychopaths".

Perhaps your statement is more indicative of YOUR mental state of affairs. I have two boys (now men) and four grandchildren and yet I have never devolved into thinking I might use guns on them.

You obviously have! Sounds like you are depressed as "comedy" is known to be the last respite of the clinically insane.

My "exposure" to guns at an early age (12) means that I know how to handle them safely which you could not even begin to do.

I also don't "glorify" them or "horrify" them. They are mere tools and the only reason they could be considered unsafe is if someone does not know the proper care and use of firearms. Hammers don't kill people and guns don't kill people. People kill people. Take responsibility for your own actions instead of blaming the tools.

Trigger locks (that are always included free by all gun manufacturers) prevent most potential "misuse". Gun safes prevent ALL but the most hardened criminals from even touching your guns and ammo.

But hey let's allow nothing (including the facts) to get between you and your anti-gun, anti-American agenda. I can't see how you can even be in the same room with Lester.

The REAL issue in this country is the incredibly stupid lack of any comprehensive mental health care system to prevent people who are unstable from acting out. Even Obamacare does not address this issue.

EVERY person who has caused some kind of massacre in this country and elsewhere was as crazy as a loon and in most cases was already identified to the authorities as being nuts long before any shooting took place.

@skelband

Really, ONLY the drug companies in the US are being extortionate? Not ALL of them, everywhere?

You need to get out more, become less of a "victim" and try to stop blaming the US for all your problems. I'm sure there are PLENTY of cases where European drug companies are being "extortionate" to someone.

Unfortunately it's what corporations do, extract money from people, in order to pay for a product that the corporation manufactures. Some more so than others.

You also need to understand that developing a new drug or manufacturing one that only has limited usage both incur significant costs that may SEEM extortionate to the common man.

As an example of the bad side of drug manufactures, Turing Pharmaceutical, who bought the patents for the 60 year old anti toxoplasmosis drug Daraprim; raised the price by 5000%. They "say" the reason is due to the low sales numbers. Turing is being ridiculously callous and probably criminal in this case and the drug SHOULD have become a generic at greatly reduced cost.

I myself take a new drug called Otezla for Psoriatic Arthritis that only Celgene manufactures. I have a very good insurance plan but it doesn't pay well for this new drug. It has almost completely cured the Psoriasis, something no other drug or cream has ever done for me in over 10 years.

HOWEVER (as an example of the good manufacturers) Celgene has an extremely generous copay program that completely pays my out of pocket expenses (My copay would be $975 per monthly prescription refill otherwise). Otherwise I would still be suffering with plaques on my elbows and knees a half inch thick that crack and bleed and have itching like a permanent case of poison ivy over half my body as I could not afford this drug.

I'm sure other El Reg readers have similar stories. Not ALL companies are bad, not all are good.

The issue is that there is no method to assure that the drug companies R&D efforts get paid for so that later production (and the people who need the drug) is not still paying for it.

Public R&D funding often finds good money thrown after bad as in the "Global Whining" fiasco because the "Public" is very subjective and prone to popularity contests rather than an examination of need and the hard facts behind it.

Re: There are several court rulings...

The fact remains that any case that covers the airspace rights of a property owner becomes a precedent for future cases.

That INCLUDES the airspace cases in NYC. It is inferred that you own the airspace at least up to 400 ft above your property BECAUSE of those prior cases. Those cases went to the State Supreme Court so they are very important.

The act of directing a camera on to private property is covered by other laws. In many municipalities, it is a crime to allow a neighbors CCTV security camera to even be aimed your property.

The very same law could be used against the drone operator as he obviously did not get written permission or direction before pointing his camera.

If companies wish to provide drone deliveries, then they will need to get your EXPRESS WRITTEN PERMISSION before crossing your property line.

Dan Paul

There are several court rulings...

about the space above a property that help define your rights to the airspace. In many cases, buildings cannot be built that overshadow a neighboring property. This happened in NYC several times

It only makes sense that the space up to 500 feet (the minimum flight level) is yours, not someone elses, since the FAA governs from 500 ft and above.

Thankfully, this particular Judge seemed to use some common sense in his decision and now established a precedent that if it stands on appeal, will settle the issue in that state for all time.

I would like the drone owner to provide incontrovertible proof that the "altitude measurement device" was ever calibrated at all. CIVILIAN GPS is not a recognized altitude measurement device.

Otherwise he hasn't got any case against the shooter.

If it makes it to a Federal Court it will affect all state law.

Film is pretty much dead as almost no distribution is able to compete with digital projection. If it is the same 4K resolution as a projector filling a 50Ft wide screen and you shrink that down to 50 inches for TV and have the same number of pixels, what's the point of doubling it to 8K?

Be honest, isn't that really quite enough resolution? Beside some insane need to always be on the bleeding edge of technology and have more and better stuff than your neighbors?
