Some residents put up union jacks in an attempt to be spared from attacks while others say their windows were smashed
When the mob comes hunting down Clonavon Road, the foreigners who remain entrust their fate to stickers on front doors and flags on windows that signal they are the good foreigners, the foreigners who cause no trouble, and deserve to be spared.
“Filipino lives here,” declare posters with the Filipino flag, pasted as talismans against destruction. Other families have erected union jacks and loyalist bunting in hope of deflecting the crowd’s wrath and avoiding selection.
