That's not arguing "both sides". I never said the "country is full of shitty fans" I said every fanbase has SOME shitty fans. The vast majority or normal people who just enjoy sports.
My point is consistent. In either case, smaller incidents shouldn't be considered worse than the much more frequent and widespread hooliganism seen around the world.
I'm not trying to "prove" anything. Just pointing out that your singular example is not a legit comparison to the historical violence of hooliganism in other countries. It is certainly not proof that that level of hooliganism exists in the US or is somehow worse in the US.
No response to point three?
