I didn't call the Russians here "hooligans"; I called them "neo-nazis", which is, in fact, exactly what they are. They wear Nazi-type outfits and have nazi-type tattoos. They're not simply drunk soccer fans who get into shoving matches with opposing drunk fans, like normal soccer hooligans. They've actually tried to kill English fans, and may have succeeded in killing at least one. They're not even soccer fans, are not even supporting the Russian team. Their attacks have been planned, coordinated. A pregnant woman was attacked. Children came close to being attacked.
