A big brawl

Hopefully, no one was injured seriously. Maybe there is already an ANA policy for attendees' conduct that includes zero tolerance for such behavior? If not, there should be one, at least a behavioral code of conduct contract that sporting event participants must sign in advance. Violators should face appropriate penalties, up to and including expulsion from ANA or multiyear suspensions from certain specific events or all ANA events. I'd hate to think that local police authorities would have to get involved in intramural Nepali squabbles; Lord knows they have FAR more important emergencies to attend to. Perhaps in the future, starting with ANA 2006, local law enforcement authorities and convention site management should be notified in advance to expect trouble, so that they may allocate their respective resources more effectively. Anyhow, I hope most participants had a safe, enjoyable experience this year.
