Roll away. A fair few have been people such as....taxi drivers....shock
horror..... "You have been found guilty of driving people where they
want to go for money......you vicious crim scum".

So for being a taxi driver your punishment is to be bound, gagged &
drugged, subjected to various means of "physical stress" &
then dumped without charge or recourse to any law or indeed for any
detemined time in a prison camp many thousands of miles away.

Fantastic.

"Well sir...he had a beard & was looking at me funny saying
something in his language...the only word I could recognise was
taxi..."

I know this may sound strange but there are good reasons (including for the
state) for bizarre concepts such as due process & indeed the whole
legal system inc prosecution & defence etc.
