Vancouver Riots 2011: Unruly Mob Attacks Man Who Tried to Prevent Looting
Vancouver was out of control last night after the Canucks lost the Stanley Cup, and this video goes from bizarre – you’ll note how many young teenagers, for no reason, try to shatter windows of this store – to terrifying. Around the 2:57 mark, a man in a black t-shirt and black hat will appear. He’s trying to prevent the unruly mob from shattering windows in the store. After the man grabs a pole from one of the lunatics at the 3:13 mark, he pushes the man with the pole, and then gets attacked by no fewer than 15 people, who beat and kick him until he’s left in a bloodied heap on the ground.

I really, really, really hope the good citizens of Dallas can keep their shit together for a few hours today during the Mavs victory parade.

i contemplated VANCOUVER BURNS as the big headline, but the city wasn’t torched, mostly just cars.

I heard the Dallas police were going to keep DeShawn Stevenson shackled, and make him run behind the parade, because he remains a danger to society, despite having sobered up.
P.S. I thought Vancouver was cool. Guess not.

Yep.

the real question is, what time does Dirk start partying for it? last night? there seems to be no way he doesn’t show up for it just shit faced right?

Only thing more reprehensible than these losers are the ones who will try to downplay this riot as actions of few idiots. Vancouver Police kept asking people to leave so they could start clean up process and identify the rioters from the bystanders. I’m sorry, even if you weren’t the ones directly rioting, you deserve a large portion of the blame for what went down last night. 100 people gathered around to take pictures and videos and make “woo” noise in the background is just as worse as the idiot who was actually burning the car. You are preventing the police and firemen to get to the trouble spot or arrest the culprits.
As usual with hipster commentariat, now there’ll be the inevitable backlash to the backlash. People will come to this board and make fun of others for trying to “blow up” the story or acting like sanctimonious virgins. I’m sorry, but that just doesn’t fly. Multiple fires throughout the city, god knows how many properties damaged, peoples car getting burned etc etc. All over a fucking game. What a bunch of losers.

thanks, you the man. so much for me doing shit today. about 3 people in my office all day. I was planning to get some work done this morning. so much for that.
June 16th, 2011 at 8:42 AM
Was hoping it would be on ESPN3 so I could watch via my 360. No luck. Leaving in less than an hour anyways.

I swear if I stare at it long enough she isn’t wearing panties.

don’t worry, Der Kaiser. I promise to lie in wait, and once somebody backlashes against the backlash, I will spring out, and backlash against their backlash to the backlash.
Then justice will have prevailed. I just need to go camo up.

I’ll be shocked if Jersey doesn’t find her profile in less than a hour.

Backlash
June 16th, 2011 at 8:57 AM
One of the few PPV’s I ever bought was Backlash in 2001. Shane O Mac vs. Big Show in Last Man Standing. I nearly peed myself watching this.
June 16th, 2011 at 8:58 AM
bags of fat!!!!
June 16th, 2011 at 8:58 AM
Backlash
I’ve got cleet tied to a post, issuing backlash, as bait. I’m lying in the shadows, with mizerle’s blowgun, waiting for somebody to backlash against cleet’s backlash.
I may have to poke cleet with a stick though, because he’s just barely backlashing.

This shit happens any random Saturday night at major college campuses. Let it go, people.

June 16th, 2011 at 9:05 AM
I remember when my hero, Kurt Angle, kept trying to suplex him through glass. Shane kept bouncing off and landing his head on concrete. That had to suck.

Canadians living up to their stereotype – losers. They even celebrate it now.

Put me down for Watney at -4 to win it. Mickelson and all the older fellas are going to have some sweaty moobs and wilter at the end.
