Kauffman Stadium fans brawl in front of kids

Saw this at Deadspin. Boy, parents are stupid.

According to police, everyone was enjoying a lovely day in Kauffman Stadium's outfield fun zone until Ronika Brooks walked in front of Erin Mela as Mela was taking a picture of her kid. Mela allegedly swore at her (Brooks says Mela directed a racial slur at her) then Mela's husband got involved, then three men may have jumped him, then he may have spit in Brooks' face ... then some kids got knocked over, so their parents joined in, and then at one point Erin Mela was definitely on the ground getting kicked in the head. Let's play two!

Then security decided not to get involved.

Royals officials said that their security office was notified of a disturbance in the new outfield experience area at 3:45 p.m. Two minutes later the call was updated to a fight in progress. The first police officers arrived at 3:49 p.m....

"It was beyond a brawl. It started out as four people, and then as kids were getting toppled, those parents came in, the women were fighting," Phipps said. "The saddest scene was a girl wrapped around mom's waist and saying, 'Please don't,' and she's throwing punches."

Here's a few things...

(1) Parents sometimes can be idiots when it comes to their kids. It's an automatic defensive mechanism or something like that. Or they're morons in the first place and shouldn't have kids.

(2) If your a parent, when does it become acceptable to fight in front of kids. Where along the line does you brain justify this?

(3) This explains the increase in violence at Chucky Cheeses.

(4) Did they get a ticket refund after they went to jail.

(5) Our local Royals fan, Casey Knopik, was not involved in the brawl.

Really, you should have to pass a test before you have kids. If you fail it, you can't have kids. I know it's socialist, fascist and wrong in every way but imagine all the stupid people out there that couldn't do things like this again.
