Riots breaking out in Greece.

Saturday night Alexandros Grigoropoulos was shot and killed by a cop in the port city of Thessaloniki. 

Since the shooting of Grigoropoulos, young teens all over Greece have been setting fires to local buildings on fire, and starting riots everywhere. Police fired tear gas at youths attacking shops and a police station in this area. Riots were also reported in Crete, Corfu and other cities. 

The one officer has been charged with manslaughter and along with an accomplice over killing Alexandros Grigoropoulos. 

I think that if a cop can't handle a situation with a young teenager, he could be permitted to handle a gun? This whole situation could have been avoided if the cop was thinking about his own consequences.
