Assistance Requested...

TOTWTYTR points us at a worthy cause.
Bryan Stow was attacked while at a baseball game in LA because he is a Giants fan.

Los Angeles police said two men wearing Dodgers clothing attacked Stow from behind in the stadium parking lot. Authorities said that Stow and his friends had tried to ignore heckling from the assailants and that the attack was unprovoked.

Bryan Stow works at American Medical Response in Santa Clara County as a Paramedic. He is an easy going, funny, charming guy. He is a father of 2 children.

I'll never understand that sort of thing, whether it's a group of soccer hooligans beating up an opposing yob, or college students smashing store fronts because they won/lost the big game, or full-fledged riots with overturned cars and riot police over a sports collective winning (or losing) the championship. It's a damn game, folks. Whether your team won or lost, you still have to get up in the morning and go to work. It means nothing to you. And it's certainly not worth beating another human into a coma over.

If you can spare it, toss in a few shekels to help Bryan out. Thank you.

That is all.
