Police did not deploy military tanks, or open fire on a bunch of white people began rioting last night after Ohio State’s national title win over the Oregon Ducks. Property was destroyed, fires were started all over town.

Tear gas was used to break up crowds of what the news media deems as “revelers.”

At least a dozen small fires were reported after thousands poured out of bars to celebrate the Buckeyes’ victory, authorities said, according to NBC News.

Three canisters of tear gas were used in front of the Ohio Union at around 1:15 a.m. local time, the Columbus Dispatch reported, emptying the surrounding area of most revelers. It said officers also used pepper spray on many party-goers shortly after midnight, with some leaving the area “with stinging eyes and runny noses.”

A police dispatcher told NBC News officers were called to multiple reports of dumpster and couch fires in the streets around the Ohio State University campus.

Alex-Bouzounis confirmed that a “handful” of arrests were made. “Our officers should be commended for their diligence and professionalism.”
  

Columbus Police Department spokeswoman Denise Alex-Bouzounis told NBC that about 8,000 students forced their way into The Horseshoe stadium and tore down a goal post.

She described the crowds as being “intense” after the game.

She did not call them vandals, thugs or rioters. Arrests were made apparently without beating the white rioters to a bloody pulp.

It’s a good thing they weren’t holding a sign reading ‘Black Lives Matter’ because then, they could have been in danger. But the brave white rioters stood up for a noble cause while tearing the town to pieces: football.

We totally understand why they were ‘celebrating’ that town to death. Because something about Ducks.

Time magazine called the crowd ‘rowdy’ after a dozen fires were started and 8,000 people descended on the goal post.

Just noting the hypocrisy here. I’m fairly certain that these ‘rowdy’ white people are probably some of the same people that called Ferguson protesters ‘thugs’. It’s not that I’m profiling them or anything. That would be wrong.

Be sure to give us some ‘like’ on Facebook.
