well, aside from alleged riots there have been actual ones and those have unfortunate effect of making it easier to dismiss the cause

Am American "riot" is a European city after a football game.

Would that Americans use the term more accurately.

How often do people die during football riots?

Considering Americans get shot during riots, I would say you're wrong.

		Even the Rodney King riots didn't have as many deaths (gunshots or otherwise) as the worst EU football events. Guns are scary or whatever, and the US should definitely handle them better or ban them or something, but I still think I'd rather take my chances in an average US riot (give or take recent ICE murders) than something heated in the EU.
