I'm so sorry to hear this, Augustus. But, I pray that things will change for the better in your country in the future. In the meantime, teach them to "speak softly and carry a big stick"!

Ouch. I live in South Africa and it is not that safe either. But Pakistan is probably much worse. What has become of the world. Many wishes, Kai
