This is not a European thing.
Looting, rampaging and pillaging seems to be the accepted norm now all over the Western “civilised” world.
It happens as a form of protest or celebration but it is happening with greater frequency.
Methinks the leniency and featherweight treatment criminals
and offenders get as a result of bad behavior is to blame.
If an offender were to get a year of hard labor at Sing-sing prison, we’d see this behavior diminish but I know this will not happen so...the mayhem will continue.
Del Noce’s view of violence from http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/03/23/who-doesnt-read-books-in-america/:
Modern violence, the sort that became rife in the twentieth century, is not a “natural” violence. It is the outcome of the post-Christian context in which, for the first time, it was justified as “creative” violence, the necessary painful birth of the new world that had to be produced.
