First switch on brain, then talk to the press
After the failed bomb attacks on two German trains, Norbert Geis (a CDU legal expert) and Clemens Binninger (a CDU spokeman for internal affairs) have suggested in Bild-Zeitung that Germany introduce armed “Rail-Marshalls” similar to the Sky Marshalls introduced on aircraft by the USA.
No wonder the country’s economy is in such a desolate state if we are governed by people who think that is a sensible and effective method to improve security.

The media have a share in such reports since they stick a micro under the nose of anyone they can find & say “What are you going to do about it (& NOTHING is not an answer”)

Howard, yes – I expect you are right, but these are supposed to be experienced politicians…
