I really do not like Amnesty - whether international or not. Okay - they get it right sometimes with Burma and Tibet - but it would be difficult to be wrong always.
Time after time they manage unerringly to take the 'wrong' side in any situation where they become involved. Their support for the 'unworthy' is noted.
They really would be the first to whinge if a policeman who was armed were to shoot somebody during a violent arrest. But now they are standing up against tazers - which have lent some limited protection to officers when apprehending the violent without the need to kill them.
Would these appalling people care to attempt an arrest on somebody wielding a butchers' knife without realistic protection as my father once had to do in the days before such technology existed? - No. Rather thought not!
Yes, I know - their main aim is to abolish torture. Fine. But unfortunately, they seem to embrace every liberal left cause in the process.
Please do not give them any of your money.
