The Riot. Rant du jour:
You know, since you bring it up- What the hell?! I dont get the appeal of the celebration riot. I've lived recently through two in my neighborhood with the Gophers winning the NCAA hockey- and I love hockey. Its not the game its a bunch of jackasses. My tolerance is gone. And I guess thats it: The jackassing of society. These stupid, bored, drunk, privileged little boys torching cars and property, and isnt it cool?!. The second riot, the cops showed too much restraint. Those caught, some are facing felony arson, but many more got away. Just last week at Mankato State, drunk partiers torched cars and property at a homecoming riot. Students said they werent "going to be outdone by the U of Mn". Another said "This is the biggest thing thats ever happened here!" Like, Yea! 16 people in the hospital! Untold private and public property damage! Thats so cool!
When a state legislator suggested that those convicted should have their state school funding pulled one kid actually said, "I dont see why something that happens off campus should effect my academics." Cause thats fucking life, you ass. Its a little thing we like to call consequences for your actions. Then He proceeded to whine about cops using tear gas. Last I heard two celebrants were facing felonies. I'm thinking its time to throw the great big book at those convicted. Let a little jail time provide an effective reality check- Let young Trevor fight for his right to party in there.

As an asside: I actually think lowering the drinking age, or getting rid of it all together would help curb the allure of "dumbass shitface".

Thank you. Now back to baseball.
The Red Sox cause Bostonians (and others) to chew off fingernails and set up a classic: Sox/ Yanks. Go Sox, and enjoy responsibly.
