Roma vs Manchester United

I have always thought of soccer fan's as drunken and rowdy and generally degenerate. Obviously I can't say this because lot's of my friends watch and play soccer and they are alright(Most of the time) Whenever we see crowds causing chaos, overseas or in SA, it's from soccer games. Cricket is my preferred live viewing sport, and it's always chilled at Newlands.

But watching scenes from last nights game on DSTV channel 24 now, those guys were getting fucked up. Granted, the crowds do cause shit, but the police just came in in riot gear and started fucking up anyone in sight. I saw some old guy being shielded by a younger guy, maybe father and son, and I was like "These cops are fucked" What threat does some old guy pose that you need to hit him with a baton? It seems these cops are just frustrated that they have a kak job, and like the movie Jarhead, they never get to hit anyone. Eventually the rage grows and they just klap anyone in sight at the slightest bit of unrest. In Jarhead the guys never got to shoot anyone and this pissed them off. Clearly the coppers need to just hit people from time to time.

I think they should have a weekly session where they fuck people up, but people that we don't need. Week one could be "Moer Bob Mugabe" Week two could be followed with a nice session of "Skop, skiet en donner criminals like child rapists" I think this would go a long way to quell the anger.

I'm sure you will be able to catch some of the scenes on Sky News. Otherwise go HERE for a video of the action on the Sky News website.

I recon they've employed John "yipeekay yey motherfuckers" McClane as their police chief, and he recons the Roma game was the perfect time to advertise "Live fast, DIE HARD",
