Sign of our times

This is from an article by Terence Fernandez on The Sun today :

A WORD of caution to Teresa Kok. With the petrol bomb attacks on her family home on Saturday, there is clearly a threat to her safety. So now, she can be detained again under the Internal Security Act for her own protection – like what happened to Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng. Don’t you feel secure with the knowledge that no one can set you on fire when you are enjoying your eggs and gravy in a 6x8 cell ?


This is the sms I sent to Michelle arising from that paragraph :

“More arrests : Teresa Kok’s family to be arrested under ISA for their protection”


This is her response :

“Confirm? No news”


It’s a very revealing reply. My sms was satirical in nature but her reply reveals how far we believe the BN is willing to use the ISA right now.

It’s sad.
