There are a few choice quotes to pick from. My favourite is:
"If people come to us and say 'I am really upset, I've been offended, my life has been made a misery and I want somebody to do something about it', then yes the police should, whenever possible, try to help."
So, I'm wondering: how much of this is an example of the new intolerance to freedom of speech in the UK and how much is due to newly created 'e-crime' positions trying to justify their existance?

"Boil the ocean." said Rogers.
"But how would you do that?" asked Gardner.
Without a beat Rogers replied, "I'm just the idea man here. Get someone else to work out the details."
It's easy enough to say that something must be done, and that the details are then up to someone else.
