Disgusted..

So to make matters worse, the Celtics lost the NBA championships. Regardless of what team I support, it was overall a great game. To be the only Celtics fan in a room filled with Laker fans was another added bonus. But as I was flipping through channels on the TV, I stopped on the abc 7 news channel. They were talking about how after the lakers had won, fans all over LA went berserk. They were so excited about the lakers winning, they decided to bash people's windows in and just create chaos everywhere they went. Then they went more in depth about a taxi driver, who was victimized by a group of fans. The poor man was stopped by the group and was forced out of his car. Then they decided to destroy the cab and then set it on fire. Then they just let the car burn and they walked away. Then the man was interviewed and he just seemed so sad and confused. Wondering how such an event, as the lakers winning, can lead to him losing his car and more importantly his job. The man kept talking about how that car was his life, and how all his important documents were left in there.

Now left with absolutely nothing, this poor man sits and wonders why him. Of all cars to be stopped it had to be his. I personally feel very sad for him, and on the other hand disgusted. Disgusted by the world we live in, not to be negative nancy or anything, but cmon. Really? was all that raucous necessary? To rob a man of his car, job and pretty much his life, just cause the Lakers won? I understand being excited about having your favorite team win a championship, but to set cars on fire and do all that is just uncalled for. So frustrated about that story, I wish that man nothing but the best in his future.
