    There is simply so much about modern life I don't understand.

    A 'flash mob' style gathering (?) had a water fight, chanted 'Black Lives Matter' and then stabbed a policeman and looted a McDonalds.

    This was in London, by the way, not some ridiculous lala land like 'Merika.

    If there was but one piece of the story I could grasp, I could use that as a frame upon which to hang the other elements, and thereby arrive at some understanding; unortunately, the whole thing smacks of insanity, so I'm lost.

    I think bringing back the death penalty would be very helpful.

    Erdogan likes this. Possibly for the 21,000 teachers he has just sacked for not supporting him.

    Yes. He's really working hard to reassure the international community that he's not about to plunge one of the few muslim democracies into a dark age of religious repression, isn't he?

    He has stymied the federalists plan to bring Turkey into the fold quickly. When they need an Ataturk they end up with a secular Ayatollah.

    Yes. Merkel's dodgy refugee deal is looking a bit iffy as well, isn't it?

    Hot weather sometimes brings out the worst in people.

    Still and all. Stabbing coppers and stealing cheeseburgers. Beyond the pale, I'm afraid.
