I was ashamed of my father as I saw him walking into the sea of people all holding stones.

The jumbotrom blipped on to put more attention on my father (as if he needed more already)

He chose not to acknowledge me as he walked past out of fear of embarrassment. I was at least grateful for that.

But now I had to watch him endure one of the most brutal and unrefined tradition when you comment a crime, getting stoned. In my opinion it was stupid as we now had tech that could surely create a more unpleasant experience
