Just wondering what the cause of the riot was. Some injustice or human rights abuses could cause a riot. Extreme heat, with no ventilation can cause a riot under difficult circumstances. It would be a good idea to discover what the cause was, in order to rectify the matter, in some way, rather than just focusing on the riot, violence and injuries....speak the truth about the root-cause. Don't just sing it,...bring it.
