You do realize white folks and others have rioted over sporting events and caused more damage? Every tragedy that is protested usually has a minority that riot, which is what the media grabs onto to stereotype, and it's what is happening here.
Please post examples of white people rioting over sporting events and burning and looting stores.
11 Stupid Reasons White People Have Rioted Alternet
BZZZT!
Alternet is not trustworthy.
You're denying these riots happened?
Yeah, I am.
Your article nonchalantly blames all of these riots on white people. Can it prove that white people were actually responsible for the riots? The first two examples don't even cite white people as the cause of the riots. More importantly, it looks to sports for the examples. Fan bases don't purely consist of white people, which this article fails to point out, moreover, basketball is very popular among African Americans (just watch any NBA game), the citation of the riots in Kentucky are dishonest.
Baseball is the same way. In fact, I would posit that the fan base is by far more diverse than basketball's, Hispanic, African American, Japanese, just to name a few.
Number 5 in particular is quite dishonest, somehow pinning the blame on white people, and accusing them of supporting or in some way condoning the behavior of Jerry Sandusky. That's where any credibility this article had went out the window.
