A protester with a tear gas mask walks past a car in flames during clashes with riot policemen on the second anniversary of the killing of a teenager by police in central Athens, Greece, on Dec. 6. Clashes broke out between police and demonstrators commemorating the second anniversary of the shooting death of a teenager by police, an incident that sparked the worst riots the country had seen in decades.

Fiery riots in Greece go into the night

This eerie image of the riots in Greece, which we blogged about earlier in the day, is like a still out of an apocolyptic movie. I have to question the logic of commemorating a terrible event and riots with more riots, but clearly passions are still high.

I am sorry for the lost of the young life. I disagree in how they are presenting themselves with this tragic. More outburst does not prove anything. More lifes could be taken for no reason. Passion should not over ride the thought's of reality. God Bless them in thier hearts.
