Nope. Just intellectual curiousity as to the mentality of that many people freakin out over a game and fighting.
I mean you can only blame a certain amount on alchohol. I think Nimmy was very descript in pointing out that a lot of it is racial tensions amongst different groups.
To me riots in America are low level street thug disturbances which usually get quelled quite effectively. But Soccer Riots?
Even the best cops in the world would have a difficult to impossible time maintaining order in one of those stadiums once 100 thousand or so people are start throwin.
I'm not encouraging it, but I say cheers to any innocent people stuck in a riot like that, who had to fight their way out.
