Sports rioting has NOTHING to do with any war in or against Iraq. A quick study of history doesn't bring to mind the wanton destruction of private and public properties in pre- and wartime WWII U.S. of A. And people were less regulated by gov't then; but more restrained by their own good sense.

A less regulated people will, by virtue of the liberties bestowed upon them, act in a more restrained and good mannered way. Thank you for making this point.
The war with Iraq drums have been beating for some time now. Natives can get restless. And today's native is far removed from yesterday's, what with all the gratuitous violence in movies and the advent of MTV, not to mention the abundance of camera's at today's sporting events. (15 min. of.....)
People haven't changed, that which surrounds them has. This is what we are left to enjoy, the cultural adaptation to such changes and all it's splendor.
