"I don't, however, think that Home Secretaries should be allowed to gun them down"
I'm assuming that he didn't ask to do it himself. That would surely be a breach of Health & Safety.....

"He then ordered me to take the prison back immediately."
Isn't the right comeback in these circumstance: "After you, old chap.." ?

No, but politicians are responsible for what they tell others to do. He intended to gun them down in the same way that Gordon Brown intended to raise National Insurance or Tony Blair intended to depose Saddam Hussein.

During prison riots here, we do send in SWAT teams, though with negotiators, and the SWAT teams only shoot as a last resort.
We haven't quite descended to the "bean bag" shooting thing yet. Thank God.

If you're really that interested, here's an RSS feed for the latest comments to this blog. Never miss another pointless argument.
Of course comments are moderated, in a common-sense sort of a way. You don't have to give your email address to post here.
If you know your HTML, you can use <a>, <b>, and <i> tags, and entities, too. If you don't, you can still use them, but with a greater sense of trepidation.
Cheers.
