↑ That's the thing about stuff like this. Photographers would love to be out there documenting it - it's exciting, it's rare, and people are bound to see your photos. But it's sad because that shit shouldn't be happening. These are people destroying their own town and the resources that they and others use. Makes for great photos, but there's an overwhelming sense of wishing the chance to take such photos didn't exist.

Maybe this is the end game of consumer capitalism. Poor people go berzerk and steal iPhones and plasma TVs.

LONDON -- As political and social protests grip the Middle East, are growing in Europe and a riot exploded in north London this weekend, here's a sad truth, expressed by a Londoner when asked by a television reporter: Is rioting the correct way to express your discontent?
"Yes," said the young man. "You wouldn't be talking to me now if we didn't riot, would you?"
The TV reporter from Britain's ITV had no response. So the young man pressed his advantage. "Two months ago we marched to Scotland Yard, more than 2,000 of us, all blacks, and it was peaceful and calm and you know what? Not a word in the press. Last night a bit of rioting and looting and look around you."
Eavesdropping from among the onlookers, I looked around. A dozen TV crews and newspaper reporters interviewing the young men everywhere.
