#1 First they're arresting a guy with a sword.
Now they're handcuffing anybody with a stun gun.

Right chaps.
I think I'll go stand on the south end of Tower Bridge at midnight and yell at the top of my lungs ... "alright lads, no knives here. no swords. no stun zappers. let's party!".

I already said that I thought that reasonable precautions by the police were more than appropriate. But it's nearly impossible to stop all crime in London, and you're not making the place safer if you disarm civilians from carrying things that might offer sensible defense.

that's my $0.02

#3 Sudden, pre-Olympic anti-terr "crackdowns". After the events are concluded, a hearty round of pints and pats on the back as business returns to usual.
