No I haven't interviewed anyone, and I do agree that someone should at least try to figure out what they're after.
The point of "perceived" was that this is what they think - their relative point of view might be entirely valid as far as they're concerned and their situations preceding these 'riots' might well be because of bad government or what/ever/ else.
What I'm trying to say (albeit in a possibly nutcase kind of way) is that their reaction seems to be out of proportion to what's happening to them. I didn't say "send them to Africa to learn how lucky they are!" or "shoot them all!" or anything like that. Despite this happening quite close to me last night (and therefore feeling slightly unsafe), I'm not prone to going for extreme solutions like that because they simply almost never work.
Then again, the government went to war in Iraq with very little proof. Lead by example my a$$. (yeah ok completely different situation, I know) [...Insert Brain Here...] |
