In one of the later crusades, the King of France got taken hostage and was asked flat out by his captors "What the hell is happening in Europe that you guys keep coming here to get slaughtered? Did you have an uncontrolled population boom? Is there some big invading force from the north that's pushing you out of your territories? Do you have some sort of tradition where you have to fight a war in foreign lands before you're considered a legitimate heir to a title? How many times are we going to have to teach you this lesson?!"
One thing to remember is that all these rabble crusaders were supposedly given a "get out of hell" free card. So many probably figured they can do what they wanted without that fear of hell.

Trust me, the 4th Crusade blows this one away in terms of wtf decisions made by the crusaders…
Peasant Crusader: Are we the bad guys?
I am amazed that the fervor of war can cause this level of intentional cruelty.

That's just mob mentality, the more people who gather the less responsible the individual is for anything that occurs.
"What?"
"Wha?"
"Huh?"
Nicely sums up most of this stuff.
Loved your reactions to this video. And this was actually the most successful of all the Crusades.
