This chaos is being covered by the BBC as well. Sounds frightning.
Take care of yourself Randi.

Thanks for your concern - Fister is tougher than I thought, but then, he has witnessed quite a few things around here. He's now under the lamp next to me. I'll be OK.

Things have quietened down now, but they expect it to flare up again later - I guess everyone needs a break.

I'll update you tomorrow. I'm SOO tired!

Wow, how scary! Stay safe, please!

[Pembroke_Corgi]

Oh no, looks scary! I hope you and Fister stay safe.

Wow and that's Denmark!(as opposite to Afghanistan). Looks as if you cannot accept a situation for tens of years and then suddenly change it.
I hope you and Fister stay safe (and somehow I'm convinced you will be- good that Fister keeps his quiet )

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Gosh, My thoughts and prayers are with you and Fister!
Stay safe my friends!!!

I haven't been able to keep up as I've been working all day. However, it's quiet now, but they expect it to continue all through the weekend.

Here's a little article from Copenhagen News:

After a night of violent protests, the N¯rrebro neighbourhood is clearing away the cobblestones and broken glass
*

With the smell of burnt plastic, wood and other refuse still hanging over the streets of the Nørrebro district, residents and shop keepers are beginning to clean up after a day of violent protests by supporters of the Ungdomshuset youth collective.

The main Nørrebrogade thoroughfare was still closed to cars Friday morning, but cyclists were able to weave their way past melted rubbish bins and charred bike frames set alight by the young people as they reacted to an early morning police action to evict the squatters.

After what police called a 'quiet' afternoon, the riot broke out in earnest when a rally held by supporters moved in against the police, casting cobblestones and erecting baracades across Nørrebrogade and other side streets.

Police arrested 219 people in conjunction with the riots. Another Ungdomshuset rally has been called for this afternoon, and*police have called in reinforcements from throughout the country in expectation of a*new wave clashes.

Sympathy protests were staged in the cities of Aalborg and ?rhus. German police report arresting 14 people in Hamburg in conjunction with protests outside the Danish consulate.

Young people have also reportedly held demonstrations in Oslo, Stockholm, Gothenburg, Flensborg and Vienna in support of the Copenhagen protests.

Danish police have tightened control at its borders in order to prevent foreign protesters from entering the country.

Behind the yellow brickwall is the churchyard - I'm on the side of that.
