In a cage


We can't leave our offices in the City due to the Incidents today.
This angers me; I am already claustrophobic.

We have yet to be informed if this was serious, or a de minimus effort by hoodlums wishing to cash in on the tensions in the City. A Look At Me stunt. Unfortunately, we have to be aware of a Boy Who Cried Wolf situation. And that because we are such a populous, diverse city, there are many people out there messed up in the head who are crying for attention and will do it through harmful, negative means. I am reminded of the stories of US gangs and their interaction. How non-gang members, in order to gain entrance, would perpetrate crimes on innocent victims in order to prove their worthiness of entrance into the gang which they liked. I think their is a danger of that paradigm in London.
