Disgraceful in my opinion. Supposedly there's a video of this coming out, maybe it will show him in a better light, but from his own comments it doesn't sound that good to me.

I agree with you that is disgraceful behavior but this kind of thing happens all over the world, not just in the U.S. Take a look at almost any soccer game. There have been people killed at some of these matches. I don't recall any violence at any U.S. professional sporting event that has resulted in death.

Thank God for the U.S.A. I can't imagine what the world would be like today without her.
