Surprised the heck out of me-Keene is a great little city (emphasis on little). It's basically a college town-I'm guessing about 20k population with a main street/downtown about five blocks long. The cops I've met there are pretty laid back too-the same sort you find in any college town.

Sounds like a bunch of drunken sh*theads decided to mess things up for everyone. The college I went to had an awesome spring fling for a couple of decades until some clowns messed it up in the mid-nineties.

Am I the only person thinking "Damn, white people are stupid"?

If it's not rioting in a freakin' pumpkin festival, it's recording themselves intentionally hitting each other in the nuts.

If you were at the riot, you'd be taking notes on the race, religion, and sexual orientation of everyone there to decide whether it was a fun riot or not.

The columbine kids were labeled as "disaffected youth" even though they had prior arrest records at the time. Guilty of mass murder.

Central park jogger rapes when young black males were accused were labeled "animals". Innocent of rape.

Yup, no one despises "the columbine kids" at all. They were officially "labeled" disaffected youth and so that's what everyone is required to think of them as.

Kind of like that Jeffrey Dahmer rascal or that amusing miscreant, Charles Manson.

Every history book of course mildly chides misguided artist Hitler before laying into that animal, Idi Amin.

You should know by know HomerJS is the resident Racism Sniffer. Unfortunately he's got so much shit in his head, everything smells like racism to him.

My family and I were at the pumpkin festival that day and had no idea this was going on. Apparently the afternoon riots took place 2-3 blocks away from the town center where the festival was. We started leaving at 6:30PM and I was wondering why the crowd seemed to be transitioning from families to college students. Didn't realize that the university campus was right beside the area where the festival was. Luckily we were gone well before the second riot occurred that night.
