Here's your little dose of the world I cam from. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5hYCD4Gu5sgpDRm3qzPcAyhDNNLDQ Sure, this stuff happens everywhere you say. However, I contend that it happens ALL THE TIME there.
You know... We've had a couple decades of awareness about pre-natal alcohol and drug use and lead in paint and stuff like that and yet I see no evidence that people are getting smarter or acting less brain-damaged.

Well, at least he can go to church or make confession, be forgiven with a slap on the wrist and start over with a clean slate...right?
What happened in the story is no different than the same chest-thumping drunk hijinxs that I saw when living in Wisconsin. If you walked into a local Wisconsin bar with any type of Football paraphenalia other than Packers, you were mildly ribbed and teased.
If you walked into a bar wearing *GASP* Vikings gear, that was almost always cause and trigger for an all-out brawl. Having tended bar for a month or two (before I lost my taste for dealing with handsy, foul-mouthed brutes), I saw too much of it.
Too often I am reminded of Aliens - "I say we nuke the site from Orbit - it's the only way to be sure"
