Downer ain't just quiet -- it's ARMED.

*when Best Beloved sent me this snippet, all he had in the email was DOWNER! and a link. I thought he was telling me who the new Lib Leader is. But then I remembered that dear Alexander isn't a contender, and followed the link. I don't know if what I found is any better! This is my 'hood!
It's weird: twice lately in Sydney people have been killed in their own quiet suburban neighbourhoods. One man was kicked to death when he was watering his lawn and got into a disagreement with a man who was passing about water restrictions, and another was shot dead when he asked a (presumably drunk) neighbour to stop singing loudly. Have we lost the knack of living in neighbourhoods?
