Horrible Violence at Candlestick park
After pre-season game between the San Francisco 49ers-Oakland Raiders.


Perhaps someone would be kind enough to post a link, as my news sources are sketchy.

The SF Bay area is a mess and Oakland is truly a different dimension.

Many good people and much variety but massive, deep-seated problems and no one has a clue.

2 shot..1 beaten unconscious..

Is this common behavior at sporting events held in the U.S.A?

Or an isolated incident.

It's happened in Calif during intra-state games.

I never recall it happening in Chicago when I grew up.

This 'Sports-Induced Violence' should be a trial attorneys nightmare.

I had wondered how much alcohol contributed to the senseless violence.

Have they installed metal detectors as well?

I havent been for 2 years. then they were doing cursory pat downs, when warm it was hard to get more than a beer or two, once it got cold I could smuggle in a 12 pack in my carhart. of course this was in Cincy, I doubt I could get anything in here in Tampa

Sorta like the rest of the world, unfortunately. This coming so soon after the SF Giants fan being dealt a beating and brain damage at an LA game on account of wearing Giants regalia is not good.

I lived in a dozen states (not the northeast though) and this is, by far the worst I've seen.

But you may be right.

It really is a mess.
