Beware Outlaw Sheep!

Police Marksman Adopts Sheep-to-Kill Policy

You couldn't make this stuff up if you tried (well, maybe Tom Sharpe could!).

"A sheep that refused to move from a busy roundabout was shot dead by armed police yesterday."

You can read the whole story here.

At a time when UK citizens are increasingly concerned about crime, it's reassuring to know that the police will stand no nonsense from stroppy sheep!

Seriously, the UK police are fast becoming a laughing stock. And the reason is well summed up by Melanie Phillips:

"The fact is that the police have completely lost the plot. Obsessed by the terror of offending anyone who might accuse them of being harsh or prejudiced, undermined by the relentless erosion of their professional skills and the transfer of much of their judgment and responsibility to the CPS, they have lost control of social order and taken refuge instead in form-filling and desk-bound bureaucracy."

The long years of attacks on the police by the "liberal" and "politically correct" crowd have taken the inevitable toll.

I'm Still Here!

Normal Service Will Be Resumed...

Apologies to my faithful fans for the lack of recent blogging. It's not been for lack of suitable material as this article from the UK's "Daily Telegraph" shows ("It's Enough to Make Me Blow a Fuse").

On a more positive note (even I get somewhat tired of recording the ongoing descent into lunacy of much of the Western World) there's a new audio program out from Stephen Pierce ("Secrets of Creating Wealth") which is worth checking out.

Also, over at "Natural Selling" (www.NaturalSelling.com) there is a special report "How to Make the Most of the Holiday Season With Natural Selling" which is well worth checking out.

Finally, your humble blogger may be making some guest appearances at a new blog "Whiskey and Gunpowder" over at http://www.strategicinvestment.blogspot.com/ Watch this space!
