Neko - I'm no Liverpool fan and I'm sure there's someone who'd be better at explaining, but the families who had their lives shattered as a result of complete negligence & ignorance have never had justice, that is what that term refers to... Justice in what regard, though? As far as I can see, the whole thing was just a tragic accident. Yes, there are things that should undoubtedly have been done differently - just one police officer directing the fans away from those pens, maybe - but hindsight's a wonderful thing. What 'justice' are they actually seeking? Compensation? Individuals to blame? Jail terms for the officers on duty that day? I've yet to find anything that actually explains, in a nutshell, what it is they're after - at the moment, it sounds like misdirected grief, and I can't help but think maybe they'd be better trying to get on with their lives (especially those that whisper about 'cover-ups' and 'conspiracies' - they're in the minority, but I've read a few articles). I'm willing to be shown otherwise, but that's just how I see things right now. (I might read that leaflet you linked to in the near future, but right now I don't have the time or the patience!)

it is misguided grief. Liverpool fans caused the problem and out of guilty they're trying to blame the SYP. Admittedly the SYP fucked up, but Hillsborough was still caused by Liverpool fans. End of.
