Sadly, such people do try to do such things.

Which is why in America we go "GOD DAMNED COMMIES O_O" followed by cocking a shotgun.

My thoughts exactly. Be annoyed at the people who did, certainly, but that doesn't mean people will now think 'riot' when they think of Canada. That would be France

Honestly, as a human being, this makes me sad. Why get so upset? My favorite team loses every once in a while, and while I do get mad, I don't go around breaking crap. <sigh> Some people...

Everyone wants to break **** and light it on fire... but we need an excuse.
