London

it probably shows that i'm a bit jaded, but my first reaction to the tragic attack in london is to wonder what country we're going to use it as a rationalization to attack (iran...syria?). at the very least, it will provide much fodder for supporters of the tyrannical patriot act ("we must stay vigilant..."). sigh.


on a slightly related note, everyone should take a look at christat's posting about the new proposed bhutanese constitution. our constitution is due great reverence, but we could definitely learn a thing or two.
