Car burning seems to be a hobby in Sweden these days. A few days ago police arrested a suspect on a drug charge in Rinkeby and five hour riots erupted. Torching cars, looting businesses, throwing rocks at police, beating up journalists. How Swedish of them.

Same thing in August last year in Husby (a suburb in northern Stockholm), 47 cars torched. Same suburb that saw the same violent riots and more than 100 cars torched in May 2013.

Was there a single riot like that in Sweden that does not involve immigrants? Were there any honor killings that don't involve immigrants from specific part of the world?

Simmilar pattern can be observed in France too.
