I don't have a picture

I don't have the picture but it was the soldier laying across his coffin to hold it down the reporter said but it looked more like he was trying to protect it from the crowd, the only image I saw on TV that helped me keep the humanity of the mourners in mind. One down and one to go it seems to me. I hope it creates an opening for peace,
trying to remember your words in a poem I just read about hope in a cave.
Not to change the subject I am no expert on ballistics but I wonder what happens to those bullets fired into the air, how high do they go, where do they come down and how fast at thirty two feet per second per second.

a few mourners were wounded from those random shots.

Soldiers kept Suhat in the helicopter, afraid that the crowds would tear her apart.

not a crowd to mess with

thanks, I am looking at the first sentence of my reply to you above and I am hoping I did not give you a head ache trying to read it. The Pity Of Punctuation.

i understood you perfectly and it was that exact lack of punctuation that made that crowd so steaming teeming with who knew what
