    Oh for fucks sake, what do you expect if 100k people are pissed off and drunk ? It's naive to think that anything else would occur.
    In the grander scheme of things:
    Some cars were burned out/destroyed : Stimulates the auto industry.
    Some windows were broken : Stimulates the local glass installer companies
    Some Police worked extra hours : Spending their overtime in local stores, etc.

    Overall, there is never a net gain or loss. Every 'loss' is someone else's gain, somewhere - there isn't black hole, money just goes round and round.
    Personally, I find shots of people standing on top of burning cars liberating - if only we could direct that passion into real causes like being fucked up the ass and round the corner by the banks then we might get shit done.

    • uh ya... I live here and would have to say this just sucks. Nothing to be gained here at all.aldebaran
    • Everyone expected this actually. a la 1994JSK
    • It was expected. But obviously it'd be nice if people could be a bit more civil. Some cities are better than others at this.Jaline
    • yup. this pales in comparison to 94brandelec
    • Actually, it'll be a loss as I'll have to pay for some of this crap in my taxes.t_rock
