"Youths" Rioting In Sweden

Yes, that's right, now they are rioting in Sweden:


Tonight there were power shortages all over Sweden’s second largest city, Gothenburg. “Youth gangs” took the opportunity, spreading the European tradition of “Ramadan Riots.” Within an hour most schools and commercial centers in the north eastern suburbs were vandalized.

- It’s complete chaos in north eastern Gothenburg. “We’ve sent all available police units but there’s no way we can stop the vandalisation,” police spokesman Frank Karlsson tells gp.se.

- Several youth gangs are wandering about smashing windows and breaking into schools, malls, banks and a retirement center.

I wonder if the "traditional" media will ever sum up these ramadan riots that take place in Europe nowadays...My wild guess is....emmmm...hmmm...errrr...."no"?

The traditional media sum up a series of events that have negative implications for their dream world? Hell no.

And besides, that would take actual thought. All they ever do is file news reports, unless it has something to do with how we need to help the poor with even more welfare.
