Oh no! That’s horrible, Jem.
I don’t know if anyone is rioting or not. Everyone is exhibiting a high tension and high vigilance. This may have been an excess of caution. We did not wait to find out.
Last January no one warned us and we had heard no rumors. We were caught up in a riot then and I took refuge in a local bank. The hubs and I were separate when the riot began. He checked on me to make sure I was safe and then he hightailed it outta there. Someone, with very bad aim, shot at him with an arrow, and another person threw a rock at him. The second person wasn’t strong and the rock did not connect. These events happened around us and we were caught up in it. But we were neither the target nor the instigator. It was not because of our religion, although religion is the reason we’re here in the first place.
