Should We Have Grey Army Tanks?

[Tattila the Hun]

Would be interesting to see really heavy tanks on airports, like Abrams or... Leopard?

T-72's are nice too.

All our MBT's are on there way to the Gulf so we have to make do with the smaller ones.

So basically, England is defenseless?
Whooo, hooo! Someone invade it, quick!!!!*


As for the heavily armed security people at airports: they are not meant to make you feel more secure. They are there to make wannabe terrorists feel insecure!


*disclaimer: not that I have anything against England.

[Daz]

GePap: are you sure there is no other reason you feel insecure because of the armed people at airports?

You too oerdin! Maybe we should tell Mr. Bush about you two

Mike, what's wrong with "army tank"?

"All our MBT's are on there way to the Gulf so we have to make do with the smaller ones."

And as far as I know this lot were supposed to be in the gulf. They're supposed to be defending the RAF airfields...which seems to imply that mobilisation and deployment is a bit behind schedule.

I don't know really. It sounds like something a 6 year old would say.

Sure, it much less safe when there's a threat.

However, the presence of armed guards on a scence does not cause a threat. It is merely an indicator. The level of the threat does not depend on the availability of armed guards. It's merely an indication of a possible threat.

Thus, if there was still a threat, but there were no guards, I would feel much less secure. If there is a threat and there are sufficient guards, then I feel fairly secure.

And i do feel secure when I know that there are several highly trained guards, watching over me, just in case some unexpected threat decides to realize itself in the middle of a public place.
