Today (3)

A year ago today innocent Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes was shot seven times in the head by British police at Stockwell tube station. They mistook him for a suicide bomber. No officer has been held accountable. There is going to be further enquiry.

You must be the only person I know who kept track of that. Make me feel guilty, why don't you?

I didn't exactly keep track, it was on the front page of every newspaper today, though I do remember clearly when it happened last year, it was just after the London bombings and everyone was very tense and upset...I fear my blog is becoming a bit dark, but I can't not mention these things when they are so much in my head, but I think maybe people like to read blogs to get away from the horror so i will try and lighten up.
