Pathetic. At least the 'good' thing is they didn't attack the girls

Vancouver has never been the best when it comes to prosecution, the judges tend to be lenient.. Some say however that harsh punishment do not deter crime. I call BS on that...
I hope all those ass's get kicked into jail and stay there |

Absolutely!

She went all out to protect her M5 (and rightly so) but let's be real: there were way too many people to drive through. They would have stopped the car and dragged her out. And way too many people for one, two or even three guns, with backup ammo clips for each one. She did pretty well against that mob of idiots and I hope the police can use the video to track them down. |

Right, but my point is that she could argue that she thought her own well being was threatened. There would be lots of holes in that argument, but it would come down to a trial and who has the better lawyers. And again, I am not advocating this course of action (killing people in a mob), I am just saying that I would not blame her for defending herself in this situation.

Brave girl and hats off to her. Was satisfying to watch her beat and kick at them but I have to agree with this post. Anything that can be bought, whatever the cost, is just not worth that kind of effort and risk even if insurance would not have covered the damage. It is after all just a car. I would have just grabbed personal stuff if possible and let them at it.

I'd blame the law enforcement for this outcome.
Brave girl though. imagine the Chinese law enforcement was in control? There would've been a massacre heheh Shame on Vancouver! |

I just sent an email to the interim CEO and VP of Marketing at BMW of Canada telling them the story and linking them to this thread. I also gave them her licence plate number, I hope they do something for her. I'll keep you guys updated to let you know if I hear anything back.

Very brave girl defending her car against a bunch of f%cking gutless arseholes. I hope the cops nail each and every person in the video for destruction of private property.

Another low point for humanity. The sad thing is, I bet there would have been similar rioting had Vancouver won the series.

I can't wait to hear more wonderful stories about the rioters being outed and punished- be it be through the justice system, losing their jobs or even scholarships. |

Samething happened in Montreal last year...
And people who says cop do nothing just watch; it's a riot come'on what would they do? They are hundred compared to thousands. Just watch then arrest some, classic approche to mob.

Poor car. Poor girl. What a waste of an engineering masterpiece.

Rioting because of losing a hockey game? What a bunch of losers! These people need to get a life.
