Ranting on the Riot

I had been thinking to myself how to express what I have to say about the “(anti)hockey riot” last night in Vancouver. It's not like I'm opposed to riots. If people rise up against oppression, systematic racism, the destruction of social housing...that is both justifiable and an act of self actualization in the face of power. But the pointlessness...of what happened last night did not bother me as a Vancouverite. It bothered me as a Canucks fan.
