Looks like they are protesting capitolism...

[texaswoodworker]

They're protesting Capitalism and showing the world just how stupid the entitled crowd are.

[Blammer]

Looks about ripe for a dictatorship.

Why call the europeans crazy, the clueless here in our own country showed them how it was done, and a lot of them had no clue what they were protesting for months.

Couldn't care less what they are protesting, just thought the gangs in clown outfits burning police cars had to have been suggested by the Joker.

Remember the final scenes of the Keaton Batman film with the Jack nicholson Joker?
Sooner or later some Joker comes along and people will follow their lead, its a regular thing in Germany these days, and most of the world in fact. Just give them a cause, it doesn't matter whether or not that cause makes sense.

A large part of what they are protesting is the Greek austerity measures. The Greeks ran out of other peoples' money to spend, and the world bank required them to reign in spending before agreeing to bail them out. Now people are upset because their entitlements are being reduced. Others are upset because they can see it might happen to them too. The bankers and the 'elite' are being blamed for everyones woes and misfortunes.

There is a link to a news story if you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the photos. The comments after the news article are... well, go and see for yourself.

Boy, what a buncha clowns!

[Plate plinker]

guess those clowns are afraid they won't have any free money for clown school classes.

That clown in the 6th picture down needs a knuckle sandwich right under the jaw. Man, I can't stand clowns, they give me a bad feeling.
