So emotional

So many things have been going on in this country that i have given up talking about it.

But i think i'll start again.

It's about a report i read in today's papers entitled "Protesters burn effigy of Lim" (read the report here).

I have much to say about this - but i will refrain. Save for one matter. The report quoted Penang deputy police chief Senior Asst Comm (1) Datuk Tun Hisan Tun Hamzah saying that "no arrests were made at the scene as emotions were running high among the protesters" (quote from the papers, not a direct quote from him).

I was like "What....??????"

So no one was arrested because the police were perhaps afraid??? Is that a proper basis to decide whether or not to arrest anyone???? Should it not be based on whether the person has committed an arrestable act???

Well, here is a tip for people in Penang who are planning to commit crimes - when cops come, just let yr emotions run high - and u may end up not getting arrested!

Malaysia boleh!
