What the rioters had done was wrong, but betraying your own family is despicable. If you don't like what they have done, then cut the ties with your family member instead of betraying them.
A lot of those people see the state as a third (and more important) parent.
It's worst in Norway where kids are taught in school to snitch their parents. I guess when left is getting strong, the child-parent bond starts getting declined gradually.
