Title: Ashamed to live in Vancouver
Post by: Gsun on June 16, 2011, 08:10:45 AM: Last night was inexcusable. We are just a bunch of losers. Sore losers. There were cars burned, stores looted, property destroyed. For what? A hockey game? WTF is that all about? It's a f***ing game!!! This is a picture from my house of the downtown at about 9PM.

Just interjecting a little humor, dont be ashamed, unless of course you were participating in the riots. The vast majority of the world realize it was the actions of a small minority that did the incideous acts. Speaking for me? I dont hold Candaians in low regard. Hold yer head high, your team kicked ass, just fell a little short, in good time the pains will heal.

I would hope that with all the video of the rioting that a high percentage of the fools can be identified and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

What these idiots really deserve is to have the living crap kicked out of them.

The guys that riot don't go to the games. They are low life scum and I'm sure have no money. I can't even afford to go! They came prepared with scarfs for their faces, gas to lite stuff on fire, etc. This was planned.
