Riots in Vancouver, 15th June 2011 – Picture Gallery

The Canucks lost in game 7 of the Stanley Cup final and immediately after riots broke out across downtown. A real shame for this beautiful city.

These shots are what I have seen with my own eyes. I must stress that I certainly do not believe that everyone you will see in this gallery is guilty of criminal activity, I believe that some however are – I hope that their actions are dealt with accordingly.

As far as I am concerned, there was no reason for riots to break out. Hockey (like any sport) is only a game…no matter how seriously you take it, there is never any excuse to cause damage to property, people or the city you live in because things didn’t go the way you wanted them to.
