That Appointment In Samarra Won't Be Avoided...

A 15-year-old boy who was stabbed to death had fled London in search of a safer home.
Sensible decision. Where'd he go?

The Orkneys? Pembrokeshire coast? Goathland?
Murder detectives launched an investigation after Jamar Walker died in hospital after being attacked in Birmingham.
Oh. OK.
Detective Inspector Hines added: "We are continuing to investigate what happened during the early hours of Sunday morning in Raglan Road.
"It is believed there was some sort of fracas in the street which led to one teenager tragically losing his life and another being injured."
It ain't where you go, it's who you are...

It's a part of Birmingham into which I wouldn't venture without a stab vest - preferably bullet proof too, a .357 and an armed escort from Special Forces.

Safe? - the ultimate frying-pan to fire move.

Apologies for inadvertently repeating myself. Mea culpa...

Sensible precaution, clearly! Which rather begs the question, why send him there?
