Violence continues


Having spent my youth watching football in England, spending countless matches with one eye on the game, the other on the idiots looking for a fight, it came as no surprise to hear the same things being said after this week's troubles. One side doesn't want to admit that a thug is a thug, and should be dealt with. The other side doesn't want to admit that if you treat people like animals they will act like animals.
