Mama, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Assholes

Canada's Shame

Well, well, well, it would seem Canadians have egg on their face once again this morning after Vancouver erupted into riots and looting after last night's Stanley Cup loss. I know I'm embarrassed, but not as much as some mother's must be this morning.

Here are just a few lessons that need to be taught early in life. Maybe we can avoid this kind of stupidity the next time we lose a hockey game.

*Teach your children how to lose with dignity.

* Teach your children that other people's property is to be respected.

* Teach your children that violence is never the answer.

* Teach them there is nothing to celebrate about being a jerk. The rest of the world now just knows for certain you're a moron.

* Teach your children that when in public they don't just represent themselves but their country.

* Finally, for the love of God, teach your children that there is nothing private about Facebook.
