What a strange, sad story. Sounds like the attackers were just full of the Christmas spirit.
Yeah, if Christmas spirit is code for booze and unresolved impulse control issues.
There is something for everything at this time of year. I just had a patron suggest that since we had Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Las Posadas, New Year, and Winter Solstice books displayed, we might also want to make sure there were books out there on El-Fid. So, now there are.
Um, I meant everyONE, not everything...that sounds pretty insulting.
That's just sad.
