Those few days were wild as hell. Walking home that evening. You could feel the tension in the air.
I got home before it kicked off. But they went crazy in London. Before the rest of the country followed.

But as usual instead of targeting places that needed it. Like where our politicians and police are. People went to loot shops and burn down people's businesses.

The police sweeps in the weeks after were crazy. Some people looting without masks on.
