Bit of an over-generalisation there I think.

Some football crowds but most have occured away from football- eg at religious events

Anything for an argument, end of.

It can be any large event.  Once the mob mentality starts you either have to go for it or be trodden on so most will go for it turing it into a stampede.

Here is one religious incident, there are others

Some human beings can be absolute morons. And as a chain is only as stong as it's weakest link, it takes relatively few morons to create a tragedy.

Nothing like a tragedy to give one the opportunity to villainize millions of people, eh?
