Yanis, 16, said students felt ignored until the demonstrations turned violent. "It makes us feel like everything gets solved through violence," he said.

That is very dangerous. The young are taught (by experience) that the only way to get attention (let alone resolution) is to become violent. Meanwhile, there are generations of people scared into believing the right is the solution to the chaos.

It's a bit like the situation in the Weimar Republic, and that makes me very uneasy.
