This kind of thing was commonplace in the early-mid 1980s which conveniently happens to be when the last major recession was in full swing. Large numbers of angry young men with no jobs and no perceived hope mixed with a tribal atmosphere has all the ingredients for trouble.

There's a common thread here with urban rioting - for those of us old enough to remember, similar factors contrived to precipitate the Brixton and Toxteth riots... and I'd even go so far as to say it was a contributing factor in the flagration of the troubles in Northern Ireland in the late 1960s.

The bottom line is if people are busy [at work] and have a money to support a decent lifestyle - rioting and causing trouble is something they neither have the time for nor the interest in. In other words, the root cause here is an economic one and we can figure things will get worse before they get better in terms of social unrest.

My 2 cents worth.
