This is the "mobile phone" argument.

The best thing about a mobile phone is, you can be contacted at any time.

Personally, I turn mine off when I want quiet, pity we can't turn the bad people off.

This is what really gets me about war and terrorism.

Groups/countries spend billions on destroying people they think hate them, but if they put all that cash into helping people, building schools, hospitals and libraries, no bugger would hate them.

They're really silly.

Have you noticed that, no matter where in the world it may be, the more WRONG a government is the more they have to resort to FORCE against their own citizens just to try and prove that they are RIGHT???

Gosh! Where in the world are we seeing just that right now? I wonder?  :/

There's a very old fable - the one about a tongue being the best and worst thing in the world - that predates cell phones, as they are properly called, by a few thousand years.
