I'm glad your safe. News media in this country really doesn't delve into why you're having riots, other than "a police shooting."
But it perplexes me to see Bobbies running in the streets, and away from the protestors, because they have no weapons, and the protestors do.
Sheesh! In this country, after the first arson fire, teargas would have been used, or rubber bullets, or something! It appears that the only thing your cops can do is stand around and watch the mayhem.
