I was living at a house at the bottom of a hill that looked like Cockburn Street in Edinburgh.
I looked up to the top of the street and saw four young men had been executed by hanging from lamp posts. I was appalled as I had just called at that house on a door to door collection and I had met them along with their Italian mother.
All made worse in that it was the police or army that had commited the atrocity.
It's no safe these days.

Exciting Dreams of The Boring Man

When I looked at this again just now your title made me think of a song by Joy Division called 'Atrocity Exhibition'.
'you'll see the horrors of a faraway place, meet the architects of law face to face, see mass murder on a scale you've never seen, and all the ones who tried hard to succeed ...this is the way...step inside.....'
I wondered how that group got their name.
Another suicide though and then the arrival of the 'New Order'.
Probably a story behind it all.
