Watching the riots on TV with my two sons and trying to explain to them why people are being so stupid´- even they know this is wrong and stupid. It`s sad when their favourite team makes it this far in the playoffs and they say, `I`m glad we didn``t go to the game.` very embarrassed to be from Vancouver right now. -
unfortunately, the actions of a few morons will affect teh rest fo us who enjoy our beautiful city and what can be a fun city......throw the book at the ones you can, post their pictures on a permanent blog and let it be known to the public that it will not be tolerated. Just discussed.

if i hear a single bleeding heart civil liberties moron say anything about the police I will personally beat them senseless! Be safe first responders. While all of us watch and complain you are there risking your neck and for what? A few well placed shots early on would have slowed them down. Time to stop criticizing the police. In situations like this we need them to exercise extreme measures quickly and definitively to stop it in its tracks.

Friend on Granville boarded up his biz earlier and says he's lucky he did.by Robin Stickley via twitter 6/16/2011 6:11:04 AM -
I have never been so embarrassed to be a Canadian as I am tonight. I hope to God that the police are able to bring those responsible to justice. It is an absolute disgrace that we have these types of people among us. These people have disgraced not only our national sport, but our city,province and Country. My kids were mortified bit what they saw. My heart goes out to all those who were affected by this horrible nightmare.

To cross of my bucket list: being in the middle of a riot and getting tear gased. I am back at Global's headquarters and safe.by yulst via twitter 6/16/2011 6:33:26 AM -
Truly an outrage to see this beautiful city destroyed..perhaps these people should go to the middle east where they fight...while our soldiers are there protecting us from harm. They are losing their lives and these scum are destroying needlessly. Such a destructive generation of youth. I witnessed the same in Toronto with the G8 and it is senseless. The police need to have more control and by saying that be allowed to take stronger action. Growing up in Toronto 1970's...we had fun and would never think of doing such damage to our home city. These people have big ISSUES.

I am incredibly disappointed with the people that have cast a black shadow on the Canucks amazing accomplishments tonight, sullied our city's, our province's, and our country's reputation with such juvenile behaviour. The people that are responsible for this horrifying situation deserve to be punished severely. I hope when they grow up that they look back on their participation with shame and remorse. There is no excuse for this type of behaviour. Win or lose, this final game in the Stanley Cup series was an opportunity for Vancouver to celebrate the success of it's home team. Unfortunately forevermore, Vancouver will be remembered for the lack of class and discipline by a small group of people. The Canucks, and the fine upstanding citizens of Vancouver deserve better than this. So sad the evening had to end this way.
