You're right Nemo, they'll go the way of the yo-yo and tamagotchi soon enough.

When I was your age it was the IRA Crispy and that had been going on for years. The Manchester Bombings in 1996 was probably the first bit of significant terrorism on home soil that I can remember or was at least fully aware of (I was 11 at the time).
The London bombings were an equal shock 9 years later. This time a group of nutters with backpacks.
If it's not Islamic Extremists it will be someone else. It just proves that there probably hasn't been a degradation of safety in this country.

Somewhere in here there's potential for a good discussion about perception vs. reality in the public's view of the state of the country, along with the media's role and (ir)responsibility. I'm far to pissed for such depth though.

10-ish years ago i can say there was alot less people walking around in burka's
because you were 5 or 6, still watching teletubies and you didn't look out for them. Your head back then was in cuckoo-land (and still is in a way) wanting to know when the ice-cream man is coming round next, or when your dads going to buy your next playstation game; now you notice different things because your mindset has changed - you notice them because you want to notice them because you want to make a point about them. 2 years ago i couldn't tell you about all the fancy logos we have on clothes, but now i've been 'educated' in what is 'cool' i spot them and can distinguish between them - but that doesn't mean they weren't there two years ago...i just wasn't bothered |

Regardless wether or not i was looking out for them, has the number of muslims in england increased in the past 10 years? Im not sure of the answer, but i think it has. |
