OK, so all men are little boys at heart BUT......

Henrik Alexandersson, a member of the Swedish Pirate Party, reports that the EU Directorate General for Justice, Freedom and Security is proposing a ban on the fuel used for children's toy steam engines in an effort to prevent terrorism.
Children's?.......Cheek.
He says that the Commission fears that a terrorist could buy tens of thousands of fuel tablets and then extract a sufficient amount of an explosive substance out of them to make a bomb.
These are the same as fire lighters and BBQ starters!
He went on to say that a ban would effectively be the end for the German manufactured steam engines, as no substitute fuel exists.
With open borders and unchecked immigration, there are more than likely tons of explosives already stored in the country. Besides the terrorists already have their copies of The Anarchists Cookbook to brew their own explosives.
If they are that worried about someone buying tens of thousands of fuel tablets then tell the shops not to sell tens of thousands of fuel tablets.

ReplyDeleteSad.....I was getting a bit cross!
ReplyDeleteYou just would not believe the number of things that are unavailable to us engineers, model makers, clock repairers.
Just anything....just that little bit hazardous, is taken out of our reach.
It is usually banned because some kids might take a fancy to a sniff of it.

Well, Cherie I expect you have guessed that I am no supporter of this eu nonsense.
