Man sets car on fire to protest high price of fuel

Found in this morning: Unemployed German sets car alight as petrol protest

One wonders if he bought some old beater beemer to publicize his website. Some of the comments are facinating ("bring back the good old RAF", etc.).

“The boy was lucky – the tank was undamaged,� said police spokesman Karlheinz Wagner, who estimated the stunt caused damages totalling €10,000."

Uhhh ... if he was protesting high fuel prices, I'd have guessed he'd have run it empty before setting it on fire, no?

"Unemployed German" still feels entitled to have a car though - and that the whole world economic system should automatically meet his every lifecycle need forever.
