shit like that happened here 3 years ago, when a cop shot a 15 year old kid through the heart for calling him names and making fun of him... the whole city center became a battlefield, of course there was looting but mostly fighting with the cops. and our cops are real bastards, they dont have pepper spray, they run you down on their bikes, smash your head in with the back side of the baton (they hold them backwards, clever boys) and shoot chemicals in your face, not around you... theres one thing to fight for a cause (justice, democracy or whatever illusion one has) and another to just smash and loot. i say the looters should be treated just like the criminals that they are.
i was watching footage from the athens riots, and the bastard cops, were banging their batons on parked cars to "scare" the protestors... bastards...
