This story reminded me that my father-in-law wants to give me his rifle for my burgeoning new rifle collection and that I have to go and pick it up.
Police arrest dozens of protesters in Denmark
Police in the Danish capital arrested dozens of people early Sunday after three straight days of protests and unrest triggered by the eviction of squatters from disputed building in the city centre.

Police have made at least 643 arrests stemming from the violence. About 140 of those were foreigners from Europe and the United States. There is no word yet on whether any Canadians have been arrested.
At about 3 a.m. local time more than 30 people were arrested near the abandoned building that has served as a gathering point for leftists, anarchists and punk rockers.
The arrests were made after activists erected barricades on a busy street, then set them on fire.
The unrest first began on Thursday when an anti-terror squad evicted squatters from the so-called “Youth House,” a red brick building that has been used as an unofficial left-wing cultural centre for years.
