Lawless White People Go Wilding in Vancouver
An excellent point: "The photos of the Vancouver riots look like Cardiff on a Saturday night." It's true! This fantastic collection of photos and video from Vancouver last night—you see, Boston won the Stanley Cup? Which is the big prize in hockey, don't you know?—does bear a striking resemblance to any ordinary night of the glassing capital of the world over in Wales. And here is our favorite video from Vancouver.
Mazel tov, Canada. (To be fair, as Vancouver is one of the most diverse cities on earth, there were also some ASIANS at the riots.)

@Abe Sauer The only way to riot.
@Abe Sauer CL Missed Connections riot edition.
In their defense, Vancouver can get a little boring. It is a little too perfect.
Get it right. Burn your city when you WIN. Use Detroit as your example.
@Pop Socket You mean Montreal during a regular season win in January.
Remember how you guys crap on us Philly fans for booing Santa Claus? Now we're even.
Looks EXACTLY like Cardiff on a Saturday night. Weevils everywhere, a omnisexual man in the sexiest coat ever created, and that blowfish driving a sportscar ….
@cherrispryte I hate that I get this reference.
At least they didn't boo the US anthem…?
@jaimeleigh No, but their poor-man's-version-of-Rene Rancourt certainly rushed through it.
"I will happily burn a car, but spelling out the f-word on my sign? Not this hockey fan!"
I'm glad to see that we're not the only ones that have to deal with dudes in Affliction t-shirts… and is that a vintage Boss t-shirt? Are they still making those in Canada?
Why bother rebuilding. A bunch of rioting looting white people will just move right back in.
@deepomega And you know they'll all just be Starbucks and Apple addicts.
@deepomega It's like you didn't read the part about Vancouver actually being diverse.
Ah yes, once again my fair city makes an ass of it's self.
The more than passing resemblance to Cardiff(and any other major English city), is a wonderful inheritance from our Anglo-Saxon mother culture.
One of the neat things about this riot, was the nice participation of all major ethnic groups of the region.
Vancouver: it doesn't matter where you come from, you can trash our city like a local.
@Mindpowered "ethnic groups"
Oh Canada!
Careful, that young Asian man seems to be holding some kind of stick!
Of course, the biggest idiots are the ones wearing Kesler jerseys…
I think it's pretty clear that was Jane Lynch catching the crotch-rocket.
