The Bishop of Southwark was mugged near his house a few days ago, and had several personal items stolen.
I wonder if he was in full garb when the attack occurred, or if there were any identifiable signs that he was a man of the cloth.
I would like to believe that that would have made a difference as to whether or not he was mugged, but something tells me that it probably wouldn’t. Our criminals are now so hardened that not even a bishop in full regalia may be safe from them.
Whatever he was wearing, it’s still a sad state of affairs.
