1. Leftwing extremists 2. Young people in low class suburbs The ones in group 1 usually burn SUV:s and expensive cars as they are owned by rich people. The second group burns everything in their way. Usually in their own neigbourhood. Sometimes group 1 and group 2 work together where the goal differs but the means seem to be the same. The people from group 2 just wants to burn things and create some kind of mayhem. Members from group 1 are there to get to throw stones and shoot fireworks at ambulances, firetrucks and police vehicles. It is a very difficult situation as many of the perps are very young and will not get punished if caught and the police have orders not to react too hard as such tings (as policemen) are very provocative to both groups and could create even more riots.

| One of those cars in the photo was a simple Mitsubishi Lancer - probably the car of a blue-collar worker. So what the f___ are these stupid protesters really doing!?
