"Youths" Riot in Copenhagen

Mysterious bored youths are once again violently rioting in Europe.

From AFP:
Six youths were arrested in Copenhagen for setting cars and dumpsters ablaze and throwing stones at police in a fifth night of riots in a predominantly immigrant area of the Danish capital, police said Friday.

"We've had six arrests so far. They've been charged with throwing stones at police and setting fires to cars and waste containers," Chief Inspector Henrik Olesen of the Copenhagen police told AFP.

At least 11 cars were torched in various neighbourhoods of Copenhagen, and 10 others in the nearby town of Kokkedal.

On Thursday, 17 youths were arrested for rioting the previous night.

"We don't know why they're rioting. I think it's because they're bored. Some people say it's because of the cartoons but that's not my opinion," Olesen said.
Maybe once the mainstream media figures out who the bored "youths of Europe" are, the general public will be informed. Or, maybe not.

Personally, I'd like to see a WWF challenge match between the bored European youths and the drunken soccer hooligans. The edge would have to go to the hooligans. Of course, a real ratings giant would be a battle royale in a parking lot pitting the bored youths, the drunken hooligans and the Code Pinkers against each other.
