I'm a**uming (correct me I'm wrong) based on your post...
Yo.. havent been here for a minute..
...that you haven't been checking in regularly and so I ask: how we gon have new topics if people have disappeared? The two are linked.
This topic was dabbled in somewhat lightly in the shoutbox the day after the killings.
People not logging into AG results in less topics posted and even less reaction to those topics. So your reaction (shock), in my humble opinion (which could be wrong), is unfounded.

All these combine to de-politicise the events, to treat “the miners strike and police repression” as if they were “natural disasters” or “vengeful acts of some incomprehensible god” and to evade simple facts: “the police were there to break a strike; the miners refused to disperse and appear to have tried to defend themselves when attacked; the police killed them with government approval”.
Bullshit...
