Will you relax already? Bee stings kill more people than jihadists

Time for a War On Bee Stings in the UK. It would make about as much sense as the policies the UK and US have been pursuing in Afghanistan, as well as domestically. In any case, there haven't been any jihad terror attacks for awhile, and therefore there never will be any ever again. And stealth jihad and Islamization? Pah! Go back to sleep, willya?

"Bee stings killed as many in UK as terrorists, says watchdog," by Martin Beckford for the Telegraph, June 28 (thanks to John):

Bee stings kill as many people in Britain as terrorist attacks do, according to a report by a Government watchdog who claims the risk from extremists has fallen “markedly” in recent years.

David Anderson said that no one has even been injured by an Islamist in this country for more than two years, while the number of convictions has dropped to a “handful”.

As a result he suggested that ministers could relax some anti-terror laws without endangering public safety, such as by allowing terror suspects to apply for bail or making it harder to ban certain groups....

This might be true but it is comparing apples and oranges. The title could have been, "Car wrecks kill many more people than Islamic Radicals Do" and they would have been correct. But so what, Old Age gets many more than car wrecks do so maybe we should write about that. Who comes up with these ideas, Dumb and Dumber?

There's a bee-keeper called 'Honest' Ibe Hooper from CAIR! Does this info from 'The Telegraph' mean we can relax with him....? :))

Oh, brother! How much longer must we suffer fools such as these? Nothing can be done about bee stings, but something CAN be done about terrorism. It's way past time to get some backbone and start deporting Muslims. Then bee stings might kill more people in the west than do Muslim terrorists, and I'm okay with that.

OT
Do you sometimes feel hardup for cash?
Take a look at these poor "criminals". Dressed in rags. From photos recently released: 19th century UK "mugshots". See and weep!
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/photos/you-ve-been-nicked-victorian-mugshots-show-criminals-as-young-as-11-slideshow/

Those Brits are a bunch of greasy melissophobiacs.

So in 14 centuries bee stings have killed 270,000,000 humans. Those old bees must really hate us! And the stonings and beheadings, burning schools and chuches! Those darn bees again!
Pass the honey will ya?
And as for that swarm of bees that flew into the Towers...now where did I put that can of DDT?

"Bee stings kill as many people in Britain as terrorist attacks do,"
So here's my question: Was that man born stupid or did he take lessons?

I feel a John McEnroe moment coming on: "You cannot be serious!"

Forgive the flashback. John McEnroe is one of the guest commentators at Wimbledon, currently "happening".

I think I might be posting too much here but I'll risk one more if St Paul will pardon me..
"O death, where is your sting?"
1 Corinthians 15:55
Kyrie eleison. Κύριε, ἐλέησον. Lord have mercy.

So the bees are carrying out "Bee Jihad" against the human beings. We didn't know bees wanted us to convert to the "religion of bees", not to be confused with the "religion of peace". LOL..., ha, ha, ha,...

Oh, I think he was stung by bees and survived to tell us the story!! LOL....

Well ok, maybe just 1 more and I'm outahere:
It's not the Jews that cause all the problems (as the mussies say), it's the Bees!
Well that's gotta be (bee?) good news for Benjamin Netanyahu. Once Hamas gets this info it will cease its aggression towards Israel. Yes/no?

I tried to break away. I really did! But I've been stung, you know?!
It's all making sense now!
Like Mohammad said to Aisha: "Will you bee mine"?

http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=security%20budget%20for%20london%20olympics&source=web&cd=4&sqi=2&ved=0CFsQFjAD&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymail.co.uk%2Fnews%2Farticle-2112489%2FLondon-2012-Olympics-runs-2bn-budget-security-costs-double.html&ei=x1nsT5PrOpKfiQfM6azgBQ&usg=AFQjCNF9-4RPhqTcgGlRayEtlJVsBiXTcw

MPs said it was 'staggering' that security estimates had soared from £282million to £553million when London only learned it would be hosting the Games a day before the 7/7 bombings.
The swelling budget for security has helped to push the likely total cost of the Olympics towards £11billion - well above the £9.3billion that the Government has set aside for the sporting spectacular, the Commons Public Accounts Committee found.

Those bees sure are expensive to keep away.


What Islam is costing the West is colossal.

Gosh. .couldn't help but be reminded of one of Harry Graham's 'Ruthless Rhymes', where Aunt Eloise got stung to death by bees. :-/

As a result he suggested that ministers could relax some anti-terror laws without endangering public safety, such as by allowing terror suspects to apply for bail or making it harder to ban certain groups....
-----------------------------------------------------

Splendid idea! Wow, we're living in an idyllic world, all motherhood and apple-pie. Let's hug all the nice, twee jihadists and destroy bee hives instead. We've found a new culprit. Stupidity, thy name is West.

"David Anderson said that no one has even been injured by an Islamist in this country for more than two years..."

Oh? Then all those reports -- almost every day -- on the TROP website of Brits assaulted, mugged, or beaten by Moslem gangs are all fictions?

"Bee stings kill more people than jihadists."

And how many British school-girls have been raped by bees? How many child-sex rings have been organized by bees?

Hardly anyone has died from measles, small pox and what not, so lets stop vaccinations and treating water.

"Bee stings kill as many people in Britain as terrorist attacks do..."

There is a common format to these types of claims, a format which is basically "_____________ causes more deaths than terrorism, therefore the concern about terrorism is disproportionate."

From the article: "Discussing the suggestions that the threat from terrorism is over-estimated, Mr Anderson wrote: “During the 21st century, terrorism has been an insignificant cause of mortality in the United Kingdom. The annualised average of five deaths caused by terrorism in England and Wales over this period compares with total accidental deaths in 2010 of 17,201, including 123 cyclists killed in traffic accidents, 102 personnel killed in Afghanistan, 29 people drowned in the bathtub and five killed by stings from hornets, wasps and bees.”"

-the basic problem with terrorism is that if you neglect preventing it there is potential for enormous numbers of deaths, far beyond the number of deaths due to terrorism that do occur even when there is a near-perfect system of prevention in place. There would be far more deaths due to terrorism (specifically Islamic terrorism in the U.K.), perhaps tens of thousands (based on the hundreds of ongoing plots being monitored by U.K. intelligence), if the U.K. did not have its police and intelligence agencies working to fight and prevent Islamic terrorism in the U.K.

-indeed, given that health care and medical research in the U.K. is heavily funded by taxpayers, the amount of money that is spent on preventing terrorist attacks takes away from that which could be allocated to preventing deaths due to various causes (major causes, like cardiovascular diseases and cancers, and numerous miscellaneous causes such as bee stings).

-ditto for other areas; due to the vast expenditures that Islamic jihadists are forcing upon the U.K., the entire society suffers and there are probably many more deaths in other areas, due to the large amount of time and money that have to be spent of preventing the terrorist attacks from being carried out. In other words, at least some of those deaths cited by Anderson may have been prevented if it were not for Islamic terrorism

DP111, excellent analogy.

The media refuses to recognize there is a GLOBAL jihad in progress. In Africa it is genocidal (more bee stings?). In the West it is more political, cultural, deceitful. But, just remember that before the Nazis invaded their first country, they were pooh-poohed also.

I suppose this means that to a certain extent Islamophobia IS irrational in many ways (!)

Heck, I am pretty scared of spiders, and none of the indigenous species in my neck of the woods can actually kill you. So maybe it is high time to reconsider our position with regards to Islam (!)


Obviously, these are insidiously Zionist bees!

Brilliant and on the ball analogy.

Ask the people who lost loved ones in 9/11; 7/7 see what they think about the terrorists.

correction-

Will you relax already? Bee stings kill more people than jihadists
..........................................

Stupidity like this has always angered me. I'm sure there was a time when more European Jews were killed by falls from ladders than by homicidal Fascist antisemitism.

Sometime after Kristal Nacht, though, that changed—and not just because fewer Jews were hanging pictures or trimming the wisteria.

More idiocy:

David Anderson said that no one has even been injured by an Islamist in this country for more than two years, while the number of convictions has dropped to a “handful”.

As a result he suggested that ministers could relax some anti-terror laws without endangering public safety, such as by allowing terror suspects to apply for bail or making it harder to ban certain groups....
..........................................

Isn't that rather like setting up hives in your living room—and then whacking them with sticks?

My God, what madness...

If there's no significant threat from terrorists, then for pete's sake, let's dismantle that annoying airport security. And all those cameras on every UK street. They invade privacy and use energy. Go green and get rid of them. Eliminate the Department of Homeland Security and all counterterrorism operations. Think of all the time and money we could save.

Apples/oranges. Western governments are spending outrageous sums in countering terrorism. And they spend how much in bee sting prevention??? (Hey, I sure could have used some bee-sting prevention funding when I got too close to a hidden hornets nest with the hedge trimmers...)

Fun with headlines

Headline from The Telegraph, Oct 1, 1938-

"Germany Invades Sudetenland"

Headline from The Telegraph, Dateline Oct 2,1938-

"Bee stings kill more Brits than Nazis, says watchdog"

Bee nice!
Bee quiet!
Bee dead!

What irony - bee populations are declining but this hideous plague called Islam is on the rise and you got some numb nut reporter with his head up his ass saying this nonsense.

So when you're patted down at an airport, they're looking for...bees?
