May be ... but if I'm a parent watching my middle school kids game and a random person comes out of the stands and attacks someone -- I'm going onto the court to help break things and assist with protecting my kid if game management/police aren't able to immediately get things under control. I'm not blaming parents for going onto the court in this case. Totally different than if two players get into an altercation due to play on the court, which is much more common and where I would agree that the spectators entering the court are rarely helpful.
