Finally - riots I can understand

There have been huge street riots across Spain recently, with police firing rubber bullets, more than 80 people injured, and more than 50 substantial fires set.

The reason for the confrontations? Did the cops kill an unarmed Muslim youth? Did someone print pictures of the Prophet doing his laundry?

Nope.

Young Spaniards are protesting high bar prices.

It's almost refreshing, isn't it?
