Criminal Database
I hope that shortened link works... otherwise it'll be a big mess.
THE police are to set up a secret database of children as young as three who they fear might grow up to become criminals.
Youngsters who behave badly or commit trivial misdemeanours will be put on the confidential register so that they can be monitored and supervised throughout childhood.
The controversial initiative is to be pioneered in 11 London boroughs from March and then expanded nationally. Any child who is thought to be at risk of committing a crime by the police, schools or social services, will be put on the database.
Children involved in cheekiness, minor vandalism and causing nuisances, will be targeted under the scheme.
Not paranoid anywhere else but here!

Ashcroft is bad.  He'll see this and next thing you know he'll want to do it too. Little vandals won't have a chance.

And my cheeky little guy will be the first on the list. 
Seriously, I'm surprised at Blair... this whole idea is too strange.

Yes, it is very strange. I too am suprised at Blair...he seemed so normal, I am going to have to re-think him.
I am so-o-o-o-o-o-o glad that my children are grown!

It's too bad that we didn't have a database when Ashcroft was misbehaving in the sandbox. Just think! We might have avoided an Attorney General with criminal tendencies. LoL!

Now that you mention it Helen...it might not be such a bad idea! We wouldn't have Bushy for President either. We would have a woman.

Well Helen... while I can't quite bring myself to get out the pom poms for Ashcroft (as opposed to my ever-ready Bush pom poms) I have to admit that I'm appalled that you would suggest that John Ashcroft would have been one of those kids that peed in the sand box. Just appalled!!!
He's such a gentlemen I'll bet he even takes the dishes outta the sink before he pees in it.
o.k., I stole that last line from a movie.

Unless of course you're referring to a glowing wonger kinda misbehaving in which case I have no comment.

Interesting. Tony Blair is Ashcroft cleaned up? I always felt there was something a little peculiar about Tony. I bet he's a closet penecostal too, though an Anglicized version, rolling on holy persian carpets and speaking in Canterbury-clipped tongues. Sectarian differences would likely deter much comraderie between the two. I can't see Tony as a celebrant in a communion service which consists of a bottle of Mogan David and a straw.
The British system would be expensive and inefficient. Our idea of the national ID card with a computerized chip which could be issued at birth would work better. With it disturbing problems with potty training, thumb sucking, regular sleep patterns and all other early anti-social data would allow for intervention and behavior modification early on. With proper monitoring and adjustments we should be able to see remarkably improved social behavior among all our children.

Hi, KD.
You think that we can trump the British plan?

Couldn't we save a lot of money on those expensive cards if we just have the chip inserted into our foreheads? We could even have it programmed to start flashing if a person starts thinking bad thoughts... like lusting in our heart or something like that.
I'll have to see if I can find Ashcroft's phone #. He may not have thought of this yet.
