yah riots are sick

Oct 22, 2004 12:07

An Emerson student was killed during the riots after the Sox victory. She wasn't doing anything, but a person near her threw a glass bottle at a mounted cop. Shots of pepperspray pellets were fired in the vicinity of where the bottle was thrown, many were hit, but she was struck in the eye, killing her.

Others try to say that the force was "too much". It wasn't. If you had struck the 2,000lb horse, it would have bucked, knocking the cop off the back, and plowing over and kicking hundreds of innocent bystanders. Another kid threw a flaming piece of cardboard at a mounted cop.

Just because your favorite team wins a baseball game, doesn't make you invisible.

This is disturbing. Also one of the main reasons I'm not a Sox fan. 99% of those people weren't taking part in such activities, but its that minority that is displayed on newspapers and on TV.

Some girl at Ai was trying to tell me that Sox fans at NY were getting jumped and beat up after the game. Really? Well why aren't I reading about that in the newspaper? Why do I see "Emerson Student Killed at Riots" In NY they take sports seriously, but to a point. Go ahead, walk down the roughest area of the Bronx in a Sox shirt, and if u say nothing to anyone, no one will say anything to you. However, if you walk in suburbia usa in east asshole massachusetts in a yanks cap, people say shit to you.

Kenmore Square looked more like Iraq. Cars overturned, enflamed, restaurant windows being smashed with trash cans, fires in the middle of the street, people throwing shit at cops.... yah now thats a way to celebrate a baseball game.

Some lady, a single mother of two children had her car scorched because the liscense plates are from NY. How would you feel if you were getting up to go to class/work and found that you car was reduced to a charred frame? I think u mite be a little upset.

Innocent people killed, property destroyed, and the city would be in near ruins if it weren't for the "excessive force"

still think riots are cool?
