not sure what my opinion on this is. i can certainly understand the frustration of poverty though. i wouldn't be one to join these rebels but i wouldn't stand in their way either. some areas get so shitty these people have little choice. still seems like it's only gonna hurt themselves in the long run, not sure if the government would ever care to set up support for these people. it's not easy to do in the first place.

So they murdered a policeman and got a swimming pool, that really justifies the violence I guess…

Theres not really any excuses for murder or looting random people if they think their riot is a good cause. They could have gotten attention without the senseless crap.

One thing for sure though is that jobs are scarcer.

Interesting stuff, I didn't know people were that violent in that part of the world too.

Well lots of people if you include North/South America and not just the USA. But then again, Canada had those ridiculous hockey riots….
