Vancouver Riots After Canucks Lose Stanley Cup to Boston Bruins

Anyway, the Vancouver riots contained your annual dose of fires, car flips, riot gear, and fist fights. Here’s a sample of what went on:

Here are pictures of cars getting flipped:

You see this sort of embarrassing behavior in response to a team losing the Stanley Cup and it’s truly a wonder how people can think gay marriage will lead to anarchy. How about starting with eliminating violence?
