I think if enough people are violent, it's a riot. I just wanted to confirm that your standards were the same no matter who were involved.

So how many people have to be violent for you to call it a riot?

OK - from what I can see in this link it was a bunch of liberal spoiled brats getting violent. Yes. I would call this a riot. Would you? Was there enough violence to meet you riot threshold? !
