Participant
I wasn’t there, but I think I have an answer to your question. You are seeking a rational answer from someone who was present at the event, but that is highly unlikely. The kind of people who would participate in such high scale destruction are not likely the same type of people who would participate in a constructive forum such as this one. Plus, I don’t think that there is a rational answer. I think it started with a few troublemakers, and then mob mentality took over. I don’t even think the participants knew why they were doing it.
