Ok, back home again. Too tired to write much about it. The basics: butthurt unemployable immigrants in a district in Stockholm are upset because the police shot a machete wielding nutcase/druggie/drugged up nutcase. They express themselves by torching cars, buildings, throwing stones at the police, the usual. Other probable participants are various Trotsky-Marx-Social-ist political parties and organisations. Various organisations on the left, journalists & similar scum are spouting the usual tripe about no resources allocated, no jobs, poor school results, yadayada, as the reason for the riots (other than the dead nutcase/druggie/drugged up nutcase). Various politicians on what counts as the right/somewhat socially conservative are instead suggesting, variously, that the families of those convicted for arson/rioting should atleast be evicted, or from some politicians, that deportations is such a nice thing that that we should have more of. Since a few days, vandalism has spread to other cities and even smaller towns, with cars and small buildings burning here and there.
Edit to add: the article quoted in the opening post is pretty accurate.
