[kj] quiet (Oxford news)

[Pagan]

That's awful.  I hope they're both okay & they catch those that did it but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Past personal experience of verbal & physical abuse due to looking different from the norm, has shown that the police are far from sympathetic and on some occasions, even hinting that it was deserved.  

I hope they have better luck with the police down there.

Oxford ended rather badly, not the gig itself but afterwards Michelle Milarski & Jon Chapman got set upon by some guy in town & it apparently went on for about 15 minutes or so. They were both hit repeatedly & Jon's lost some teeth. 

Michelle had explained further in a f/b thread but I think it's been removed. It was all totally unprovoked & maybe it being St Patrick's Day with 7 hours of continuous Six Nations rugby on pub screens had some bearing on events. 

It's such a horrible & senseless thing to be caught up in. I only hope Jon hasn't suffered any lasting damage but from what he's posted, it sounds pretty bad.
