India wins and aussies lose

Tomi · Dec 18th, 2003, 01:19

The English fans trashed several French and Dutch towns after games.
The Americans booed the Canadian national anthem at a hockey game.
There were several dead after an India-Pakistan game.
The Colombians killed one of their own who made a bad play.

So... these are all examples of individual bad behavior, carried to an extreme, and of mob mentality, which unfortunately happens not only in war, but sometimes in sports and religion.

The Aussies should NOT be singled out for bad behavior.

Lord Shiva, your post is offensive. This kind of stuff doesn't normally appear on this web site, and I hope you get banned.

I have to agree with you Tomi. This thread has rapidly been going downhill. It's not even witty or funny.

I am going to take my first executive decision as a moderator on this forum and close this thread. I'm sure most people on the forum don't want to read any more of these abusive and divisive remarks.

This thread is now closed
