The shooter was with his wife at the time. Not exactly the profile for a gang member out looking for trouble.
Maybe he wa protecting his wife from a raider fan looking for trouble

damn....you folks are pathetic.
I grew up a Raiders fan, and only changed over when the Cards came to Phoenix. My entire family is filled with Raiders fans...my 68 year old mother is a Raiders fan.
The fact that many gangsters and thugs choose to associate themselves with the silver and Black is a source of shame for every Raiders fan in the country.
The Raiders have won a few Superbowls, their fans did not choose to burn down their city....flip over police cars,...all out riot.....
my mother has never shot, stabbed, or brutally beaten anybody(at least over a football game )
The thugs are not Raiders fans...they are thugs who sport the team colors.
there are fans of many if not all teams who are worthless garbage, convicts, gangsters, whatever...just as there are doctors, lawyers, day care workers and peace corp volunteers.
I have been to lots of games and I would much rather be at a game with Raiders fans than cowboy fans......but as much as I hate to say it.....even they are not all bad.

This, i made the mistake of going to a Raiders Chargers regular season game several years ago in San Diego, my God what a bunch of thugs showed up in Raiders gear.There are violent idiots in every single fan base. The Raiders, however, bring out an astonishing number of these people. I've been to 150-200 NFL games in person at this point, I've seen the Cardinals play every team in the league in person, more than once. The Raiders games bring out an ugly crowd. If you were to say to me "guess what, a shooting, stabbing, near fatal beating, just happened at an NFL game, pick the right game, and you get a hundred bucks." I'd pick the Raiders game every time.
Yes there are nice raider fans out there. Yes 80% of the raider fans are not that way. If you cant see this, you are blind.
I disagree with your 80% assessment, and would submit that 80% of raiders fans do not actually go to the games.
but while we are exhibiting prejudice....what color do you think their skin is? Black, white, native, asian, latino?were they hetero,gay, or bi? do you think they were baby boomers?? gen-xers? or younger?
since you are soooooo good at determining who is who and who did what....please, take the time to show the full scope of prejudice

Do you go to the games DD? I'm not suggesting that one incident is indicative of the entire fan base or should represent the entire fan base, and there were no incidents with any fans in my section or the ones around me -- but the Raider crowds that show up to our games do seem to be, in general, a different breed than I observe with other team's crowds.
I have been to lots of games and raiders games are just bad. There were several fights in front of us, and this is a freakin preseason game. I'll never go to another raider game.
desertdawg is a regular at my tailgates and a guy who never acts like a butthead to other fans. If everyone had his attitude, the games would be a lot more enjoyable to go to. Much love my brutha!
My grandmother is a Raider fan. She has never been to a game and will never go.
Why? Because of the many Raider fans (or thugs who show up to Raider games wearing their gear) who show up to games and are out of control. There is no denying that.

So even your family sees it the same way....not sure why you are so upset thenmy sister and nephew go to one game a season. They would go more but dont want to spend time with the rowdy's either....my nephew is only 26 and can name the raiders starters for the past twenty years, team records, all that....says the fools at the games cannot even tell you the starting defensive line...just the QB and the RB...maybe a WR or LB if they are star quality. The rowdy's are not a true representation of raiders fans, even the fans stay away because of them.
This percentage was brought to you by my butt. When in doubt, just pull a percentage out of it
BTW, Oaken is right (again). I grew up in Fresno, Ca and my entire family are Raiders fans. None of them are thugs. You either were a Raiders fans or a 40whiner fan. Almost all my kid pictures are me in Raiders stuff.
It wasn't until the late 80s that Raider nation became the atrocity it is now. It used to be just the working class team.

yes, maybe we should say 80% of who goes to the game? I dunno. It sure seems like the majority are unruly whenever im at the games.
100% the shift happened in the 90s with gangster rap
just upset over the stereotype man. the majority of Raiders fans are good folks just like any other.....the thugs and bangers make it bad for everybody...
in this particular incident...the shooter himself called 911 and waited for police....does not sound like a typical thug in any case.

100% I have raider fan friends who are great people but sadly, the rowdy ones rule the roost and its gonna get pointed out. We dont mean to demean you when we trash raider fans, were talking about the bad ones.
