Wax + Fire = Trouble?

It wasn't all that long ago that I would have been one of those who would have joined in the candlelight vigil.

After all, lighting candles for the good of humanity cannot be all that bad right?

Today marks the 50th Anniversary of the Introduction of ISA (if I have the facts right), and some saw it fit enough to gather and show a sense of presence for the cause.

The Star reported some arrest, and I guess the Police have again acted the way they saw it.

How do you see it?

Having been in the thick of it at one point, and having seen what ISA has done to some people, I can understand it.

Is the ISA needed still? My take is yes, because....there are just too many people out there who are hell bent on seeing chaos in this country.

Let's not forget that these very protest and street riots that are a threat to the well being of the economy.

Don't forget whats happening in Bangkok now.

I am just glad, I am not being used by Political leaders in getting public symphaty then taking it to an agenda of their own.

By the way, what happened to Barisan Rakyat? my take? Its been hijacked.
