sometimes i wonder if photographers wish inside for chaos to happen so they can run around taking beautiful photos.

That burning Christmas tree is beautiful in a wierd way.
Many of the photos are quite striking and tell a story in and of themselves.

Alexander's death appears to have been a catalyst, unleashing widespread Greek anger towards many issues - police mistreatment of protesters, unwelcome education reforms, economic stagnation, government corruption and more.

in short, too much freedom on that department...imo they should be rounding these little fuckers up in jail at the very least.
that burning officer image just pisses me off to no end, they should use some brute force.

word has it that most of the hard core vandalism comes from immigrants on the north border of greece and northern parts of africa...thinking that bringing down the establishment will somehow alter their lack of welcome or simply alleviate their situation altogether. I can't believe the greek youth is allowing this to happen right under their noses.
