I wanted to see vancouver win and a happy riot, but the "inbreed fucks" have arrived in Vancouver. They should just start cranking ghost for everyone to get them to calm down.

It's annoying when a crowd gathers, and some bad seed uses that to create a riot
Gotta say I know how it feels, being from Montreal.

I watched the whole thing for at least four hours last night,

It was just mainly all young people, while every other human being was either standing there as if it were a tourist attraction or just trying to get the hell out of there and avoid all of the fights and chaos. The Vancouver Police were absent the whole 50 minutes the Hudson Bay/London Drugs district was being looted. After they showed up there the whole crowd moved down to Sears so I got fed up and went to sleep. People had a hard time breathing from the smoke coming off burning cars. Check out this video of a Grade-A dumbass:

That same journalist and his cameraman also looked into the window of the Hudson Bay store and saw an in-progress burglary (three guys hiding their faces, holding bats and fire extinguishers ordering one employee around). Its the most pathetic thing I have ever seen. One thing that kind of made me laugh though is that those two guys on top of the building in the clip were shown before when someone from the news room asked who was up there. The journalist just responded with "They're just having a bowl, smoking some weed". Probably a little polyethylene from the burning car too.

Living an hour and a half ferry ride away its absolutely shameful to see the people of vancouver participate in this i watched the whole thing on the tv, heard reports of what was going on from friends who were trying to desperately get home and out of the chaos, I still havent heard from all the friends I knew that went watch the game, heard from most but not all which is worrysome I was originally planning to head over to watch the game but my shift got switched luckily. They threw a guy off a bridge because he was a boston fan its disgusting; The stories will continue to filter through for the next few days but it definately leaves a black mark on the city and the province and canuck fans in general.. There is plenty of vancouverites helping in the cleanup today its just a damned shame that this happened because of a select drunken few :furious: :sad:

The first image I saw of the riot:

I thought, that's not so bad, eh?

Then I saw the other idiots that are giving Vancouver a bad name.
I'll just stick with the above photo; and yeah, sports, you can have them.

Inebriated group-think isn't just limited to sporting events. I'm sure you can think of a few stupid incidents or even deaths that may have occurred at past concerts.

Thanks to the internet a lot of dipshits like the one below have basically turned themselves into the police via #tweets and facebook updates.

Good! Makes me really sad to have my first and greatest love in life (excluding people) shamed like this. Well done to all those who took part in the clean up!

Riots are rare over here. Most of them are carried out by leftwing extremists, if not all of them. Last time it happened it was leftwingers and "non western immigrants" who supported the pallestinias who did it as well. Every time it is called a demonstration. Or it is a demonstration being taken over by bullies.

I guess that pic isn't quite as romantic as originally thought:
