The Greek government has appealed for calm after rioting returned to cities Sunday, following a night of violence during which youths battled police across the country.

Athens and other cities were hit by the overnight violence after a member of an elite police corps shot dead a teen in the Greek capital, triggering angry protests.
The officer who fired the fatal shot has been charged with murder with malicious intent and suspended from duty, police said, adding that an autopsy on the youth is scheduled for Monday, in an effort to discern the circumstances of the shooting.

Oh, yeah, I know it's not common.

Anthony, What type of justice are you talking about? There's been virtually no riots since the Rodney King incident, yet police misconduct has continued. The cases that caught the most attention over the past few years have been Amadou Diallo, Sean Bell, Marquise Hudspeth, and others all unarmed. The police in all of the incidents listed above, and most others were acquitted. Where's the civility and justice in that?
