Roleplayers beware…
LONDON (Reuters) - Police on Thursday charged a woman on terrorism-related offences for possession of a computer hard drive loaded with operating manuals for guns, poisons, mines and munitions.
To be honest, these criteria would qualify half of the roleplayers I know for internment. It was my ex-wife who said, "Guns, the more you learn, the more interesting they become."
Police said the charges against the woman were connected with the arrest last month of a man caught at Heathrow airport in possession of a night vision scope and a poisons handbook.
Aha, okay, these guys were up to no good. Though I've been to a game convention with a telescope and a Cocktails book....
Police said among the items on the hard drive found in her possession were the Al Qaeda Manual, The Terrorists Handbook, The Mujahideen Poisons Handbook, a manual for a Dragunov sniper rifle, The Firearms and RPG Handbook, a manual for a 9mm pistol and a manual on how to win hand to hand fighting.
Again, up to no good. Of course, the RPG they mention here is "rocket propelled grenades".
You can read the full story here on Reuters but oddly not the BBC News site....
