Police used pepper spray Monday night to dispel up to 300 Muslim young people who caused disturbances outside Fisketorvet mall in downtown Copenhagen.
The youths had gathered at the shopping centre in connection with the celebration of the Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha.
But several of those present got out of hand, according to police. Bicycles were thrown onto the nearby S-train tracks, shoppers at the mall were harassed and rocks were thrown at police who arrived on the scene.
Officers managed to split the group in two and drive them away from the mall. Five youths were eventually arrested as a result of the fracas. (rc)

Exactly what right did the non-Muslims think they had...going out on the night of Eid, one of Islam's holiest days?
Can anyone really blame the Muslims for not being at least a bit upset?
The people of Denmark need to learn and respect the rules of their new society...or they will continue to be punished.

Just boys working off a little of that Ramadan spirit. If you can’t make the hajj, you have to throw bicycles and harass infidels as penance. And throw some harmless pebbles at the devil. I mean the police.

What? They were throwing bicycles on the tracks? No trampling masses killing each other in their frenzy to go somewhere? I thought human stampedes and disorderly conduct were tenants of their, ahem...uh religion...ick

Oh, Ok....Eid is all about celebrating the willingness to kill one's own kids: Eid al-Adha (Arabic: عيد الأضحى Īd ul-Aḍḥā) or the Festival of Sacrifice is a religious festival celebrated by Muslims (including Druze) worldwide in commemoration of the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ishmael as an act of obedience to God. The devil tempted Ibrahim by saying he should disobey God and spare his son. As Ibrahim was about to sacrifice his son, God intervened and instead provided a lamb as the sacrifice. This is why today all over the world Muslims who have the means to, sacrifice an animal (usually a goat or a sheep), as a reminder of Ibrahim's obedience to God. The meat is then shared out with family, friends (Muslims or non-Muslims), as well as the poor members of the community.

Well now, lately the term “muslim youths” and “muslim gangs” is now in the main-stream media’s lexicon. Interesting.
