"Fights break out at Carson Beach; Up to 1,000 youths reported involved; police say brawls moved elsewhere" by John M. Guilfoil, Globe Staff / May 31, 2011
Fights broke out among rival gang members on Carson Beach in South Boston yesterday and spilled out across the city, triggering a massive law enforcement response from at least five agencies to stem the violence.
Police said the gang members are part of a group of more than 1,000 youths who have used social media sites like Facebook to plan unruly gatherings on the beach on three of the past four nights. The beach falls under the jurisdiction of the State Police, who have been unable to prevent the violence.
They don't prevent anything!
And why can't you kids make a PROTEST MEAN SOMETHING like the REST of the WORLD?!
The response yesterday resembled crowd-control tactics reserved for major sporting victories....
