ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Rioters hurled petrol bombs at police who responded with tear gas as an anti-austerity demonstration outside parliament turned violent Wednesday, while Greek lawmakers began debating contentious measures needed to start negotiations on a new bailout and avoid financial collapse.

Groups of youths among the more than 12,000 protesters smashed storefronts and set at least one vehicle alight. The clashes were the first significant protest violence since the left-wing Syriza government came to power in January promising to repeal bailout austerity. Police said at least 50 people were detained.

Unlike the American citizenry, the Greeks are unarmed. Imagine them well-armed.

Would I have it on rather solid authority that Greeks are pretty much unarmed by state laws and time? I can see why they disarmed them before they decided that democracy wasn't really what they needed. If you can't trust a "hard left" socialist to cut (crony) capitalist ties, who can you trust these days?
