It IS scary how often these incidents happen, and it's hard to fathom.

The random violence - stabbings and acid attacks -is the reason we have not visited London in a while though there is much which we haven't seen there. Paris has become very scarey too.

It is awful to see how times are changing and much of it is to be blamed on the gangs. Unfortunately such occurances happen all the time in our cities. That is why we live in a small town on the outskirts of Kansas City. The shootings are far too common even in the daytime.

One problem seems to me to be that politicians all want to blame some ideological cause (whether it be poverty or drugs or whaever) but seem very reluctant to tackle, or completely incapable of tackling, the problem at source.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-37492996710315395282019-02-25T14:10:43.273+00:002019-02-25T14:10:43.273+00:00Wow.

Even if maybe some of the families are partly to blame for how their young men turn out, it must still be a tragedy for the mothers and fathers to lose their sons before they even can make something other than a mess of their lives.<br /><br />As for Turkish food, I may have mentioned a few times that nearly everyone in my house and next door is Turkish and that we have many Turkish shops and restaurants dotted around town. I do enjoy the food but usually am full already after some of the delicious warm flat bread and hummus.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-21345634056524552242019-02-25T10:07:15.538+00:002019-02-25T10:07:15.538+00:00Our Grandson lives on Roman Road in London and tak...Our Grandson lives on Roman Road in London and takes it as said that there are stabbings all of the time.
