i don't feel so safe anymore

as safe as singapore is, after loopholes in our security systems have been exploited recently, i'm truly questioning how safe we are... but that's the thing.. sometimes mistakes have to be made for these loopholes to be discovered and appropriate measures put in place to counter them.. but what if those mistakes cost lives?

i fully appreciate how fast and swift security forces act here once they realise something is a miss... 1 recent instance and 1 current one are the Guard who ran off guard duty with live rounds, and the current one with the JI leader in Singapore escaping..

they say he was in a waiting room, waiting to meet with his family when he asked to go to the toilet.. he then fled from the toilet or something like that.. what i seriously question is how on earth can the Most Wanted or maybe by then we had already caught him? so he's not so important anymore? until he escapes? how can there be no guard realizing he's escaped! giving him enough time to make a get away, even though he's walking with a limp, and still now after the vital initial 24 hours have gone by, still no sign of him they say... he obviously had quite a bit of time, before any guard realized he was gone.. that just should not happen..

i'm young, i probably don't know anything but let's analyze the situation.. would ensuring there is always at least 1 guard assigned to dangerous individuals be more troublesome and costly, compared to having to mobilize hundreds of military personnel?

for me the answer is simple, assign a guard to follow them whereever they go... there should be absolutely no chance give for these individuals to escape..

if he does make it out of the country, and manage to plan and carry out a successful attack resulting in the deaths of many, and damage in all aspects that would cost millions, would assigning a permanent guard look so costly or troublesome now?
go figure yeah?

but i don't know how the military works..
so i don't know if this is viable.. but it looks and sounds good to me...

it's just like playing defence..
and you're forced between 2 decisions..
you're being closed down by 2 men.. you are the last player on your team.. if they win the ball, they will almost surely score.. would you play it safe, clear the ball out at the cost of having to pull everyone back, but having time to do so or, try to put it up to the other players, or dribble out.. risk losing possesion, with high chance of being caught on the counter and losing a goal...

it's simple you play safe.. that's what we should be doing..
better be safe the be sorry right? everyone knows this, but do we jsut think of it as a common phrase that doesn't mean anything?
