I read today that it was the killing of a 16 year old boy by the police that has started it. But young people in Greece have been in trouble for a long time: low income, lack of jobs, etc. It was said that the difference between rich and poor is very big. However it seems the situation is calmer. The government has thought about sending the army to the streets, but they haven�. The problem is that these riots may start in other european countries! Hope not. But the economical crisis is really bad! Well, this is what I read in the portuguese press.
