moonbattery.com/?p=79672Response to Islamic Truck Attacks: Kill Switches for TrucksWhen Muslims use guns to kill us, fools blame guns, and propose limiting our access to them. When they use trucks to kill us, fools blame trucks: A remote ‘kill switch’ to immobilise HGVs [heavy goods vehicles] is being secretly developed by Government scientists who fear a Nice-style massacre in the UK. They are investigating methods of interfering with the electronics of lorries to stop them in their tracks if hijacked or used in an attack. They fear Islamic State militants could try to emulate the horrific strike in France which left 86 people dead in July. Muslims followed up the Bastille Day truck attack in Nice with a yuletide truck attack that killed 12 at a Christmas market in Berlin. But the problem is not trucks; it is jihadists. By the time the authorities could utilize a kill switch, the damage most likely will have already been done, the vehicle already immobilized atop a pile of wreckage and corpses. But even if kill switches prevented Islamists from using trucks to kill us, they would just switch to a different tactic. The only real purpose of the switches would be to move the ratchet another notch toward absolute control by giving Big Government power over vehicles. A more sensible approach would be to close the immigration floodgates until assimilation has taken place — although in Europe, raw numbers may have already reached a level that makes assimilation impossible. In any case, no one will solve the problem without acknowledging what it is.
