Vancouver has turned to mayhem, after losing the Stanley cup. I live just a boat ride from the city, and it's all that's on the news. These riots are crazy, there's everything from cars being set on fire to attempted suicides, and people getting gang beaten for no reason. Shops are being vandalized, there are looters trying to steal anything they can that will cause more damage. There are riot cops in full gear trying to contain crowds, not even rubber bullets have deterred them stop this mess. Anything that the cops can legally throw at them tear gas, attack dogs, I've heard rumors of fire hoses. There were a few news reporters who were stuttering with fear, the only one I saw had been close to an explosion, and seemed extremely shaken up. So, for discussion, what do you think of this? Does anyone know anything else about it? Why do you think people behave this way?
*EDIT* I can see the rioting and fires through a low powered telescope that I just happen to own.
