Excuses and why *do* we put up with them?
Muslim cleric Abu Hamza has failed to appear on a video link to the Old Bailey - where he was due to face 16 charges, including soliciting murder.
A prosecuting lawyer said Mr Hamza had claimed he was "unable to walk" because his toenails were too long. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/4145325.stm Why can't he be put into a wheelchair? Why *do* we tolerate this crap? |

Methinks a cattle prod would make the long nails a low priority.

If he was a member of the National front I bet they wouldn't worry about his sensibilities. Why do we put up with this crap. We have a home secretary that thinks it's ok to throw people injail without a trial yet pussyfoot around this clown
