It seems a week is the usual amount of time for those things to die out.

A handful of cars were torched in Stockholm's immigrant-dominated suburbs early Tuesday but police said the situation had returned to normal after a week of riots and unrest.

"Now we're back to normal. There was no rioting, and only a few torched cars, under 10," Stockholm police spokesman said.

There were no reports of unrest in other Swedish towns either.

More than 150 cars and dozens of buildings have been torched in the past week of nightly unrest, which began May 19 in the Stockholm suburb of Husby, where 80 percent of inhabitants are immigrants.



no...it's not about integration. it was aobut a korean shopkeeper shooting a black girl in the back. it was about korean owners buying properties in what blacks felt were their neighborhood. sorta like, those korean immigrants are taking our jobs.

the riots owuld be something like white swedes rioting over imigrants taking over their downtown in shop owning
