Robin, you appear to have lived quite a sheltered life. The last thing I
would do if my life was threatened in this country is call the police. As
Alison observes, they are most likely the ones doing the threatening, which I
learnt the hard way some time ago by helping out a little protest for gay
rights by designing and printing posters. After escaping the police threats
and re-surfacing from the underground I went on to later work in publishing.
Here, I got death threats and was shot at for being a publisher supporting
Asian immigration to this country from the local fascist hoons and the police
refused to act so a few people went out and acquainted their heads with the
pavement. So now, I know what to do. Go out the back and dig up my trusty SKK
Chinese automatic assault rifle I got buried in my garden and start shooting
back. I may be opposed to the war in Afghanistan but the armed revolutionary
overthrow of my own government--
NO WORRIES MATE!
