Taking the law into your own hands
Are communities making the situation worse by taking the law into their own hands? And how has your life been changed by the events of 9/11?
Are communities taking the law into their own hands making the situation worse?
Last night we saw the good and bad effects about how the Asian community is dealing with the riots across England.
In Southall, Sikh and Muslim brothers came together to protect the local community. Men from the Gudawara stood guard outside the Mosque while worshippers were inside for Ramadan prayers.
However in Winson Green in Birmingham we saw what could go wrong. Police are launching a murder investigation after three men were killed after it was reported that rioters deliberately drove into them while they were guarding their community.
Obviously our condolences go their loved ones. But do you worry that your brothers, fathers and uncles are putting themselves at risk? While its tremendous to see different religions coming together, protecting life and property is dangerous job, shouldn't the police be doing that?
Later we'll be hearing from two muslims as next month sees the 10 year anniversary of 9/11. Has your life changed since 9/11?
