Not very nice (the murder of Tomlinson I mean). The ruling class will allow us to believe we have certain freedoms yet that illusion is ripped away if you threaten the ruling class or are seen as a threat.
Tomlinson's only "crime" appears to be that he wasn't well-dressed enough to be near the G20 summit proceedings.
To some of us, the police state is here already. Here, and in the UK.
