Can't it just be seen as such without all of the racism and bigotry??? And i'm talking about both sides! Why stoop to the level of these bigoted punks? In 2011 shouldn't we all be better than that?

Right! I'm an equal opportunity hater when it comes to bigotry! Again, I make no distinctions! Treat others how you want to be treated, and the world will be a better place.

Mostly it was some innocent pedestrians who were shoved or pushed. Vandalism to shop windows and even some cars were vandalized.

I know of one instance where an elderly man was pushed to the ground and he suffered a broken bone and had to be rushed to the hospital.

This city depends a lot on tourism ... we get visitors from around the country and from other countries as well ... to visit our historic sites, museums, cultural venues, etc. We cannot afford to get the reputation as a place where visitors feel unsafe.

This vile and criminal behavior must be dealt with severity and zero tolerance.

Apparently the flash mobs are facilitated by the use of cell phones, Twitter, and Facebook. Youngsters looking for trouble can now organize effortlessly. It is juvenile mischief, and the perpetrators are always young kids - usually as young as 9 or 10 up to about 18.

We need to get nonsense. Black people are way too violent and something needs to be done. They contribute nothing, take everything and are overall a burden on the country. That's why every majority Black country is a disaster.
This is a very scary and dangerous notion. I assume you're of the 1%.

Doesn't surprise me.Maybe when one of these thugs gets their head blown off it will make the rest take heed.
Sadly that needs to happen soon for these people to get the hint.

This is a direct result of the change that has been brought about by the liberal community of this nation. These young people needed discipline, and to be taught to respect others. Instead our legislators have taken the tools away from parents to give that discipline and to teach that respect. We didn't see this when we were young. Why? Because by and large our parents did a better job of raising us. Kids have to stop having kids and then turning them out on the street and we have to teach our children that you don't start a family until you can afford to, and to take care of them properly. As long as we are rewarding bad behavior this mentality will continue. You get pregnant? No problem..Go get your free housing, food stamps and your welfare check. You don't have to listen to your parents, just do what you please and the government will care for you. This is exactly what is crumbling our society today. Contrary to Hillarys belief that it takes a village to raise a child, it takes two strong parents with ideals and commitment to the best interest of their children.

That only applies to poor parents. I know plenty of parents who have taught their kids to respect, I've also known many who haven't. Stop blaming the government for everything, especially poor parenting.

The government panders to poor parenting and encourages young people to make poor decisions.
