acbizgirl, my heart goes out to you! Yes, I would have found it terrifying as well. When ruffians take over the streets, you just don't know what is going to happen and that's not good. We can say kids will be idiots, but you didn't know the purpose or the outcome of their actions as it was happening. It must have been a scary feeling. Thank goodness you weren't hurt. I hope no one else was as well.
