Next up will be firebombing and destroying Muslim owned businesses, and the right wingers fanning the flames of hatred will say that it's "understandable".

By lighting the proverbial match at the politicians' favourite hangout... the parliament buildings. And if that doesn't work, then you actually light the damn match and burn the place to the ground.
You target the source directly.
Indirect rioting gets people nowhere and also has the potential to harm innocent victims.

It is more accurate to say, that these events have been engineered by the governments of European nations to cause those who might have risen up against their government in the event of tyrannical oppression to:
A) Identify themselves by their actions, and...
B) Cause their own arrest or loss of credibility by those actions, meaning that...
C) The people of those nations will have no resistance movement, or a denuded and less capable one, to fall back on in the events to come, which, if these moves are anything to go by, will be unpleasant and involve plots so Machiavellian as to make ones head spin.
I have a bad feeling about all of this.
And if you havent noticed, the situation is getting worse not better, so no one has come up with a peaceful solution. So, why not share your outline of what a peaceful resolution would look like.

Utter rot.
The answer to a government whose strategy for control includes unreasonable behaviour toward border control, is to refuse to be turned toward hate and violence, no matter the provocation, and especially not toward those that the government WANTS you to enact violence against.
The government of Sweden have surely gone against their people in a massive way, and I appreciate that this causes ill feeling. But the ill feeling, and these actions that have resulted from it, are misdirected. It means nothing to the Swedish government that a building is burnt to the ground, less than nothing. They do however know, as a result of these actions, that they can manipulate their people, stir them up, and make them mad enough to loose reason and forget that the enemy of a group of people is always the person or persons who seek to control them.
That is disgusting to me. It is disgusting because it shows how little has been learned from history, how little has been learned from RECENT history more than anything else. It shows that the people who committed arson on these buildings have no concept of the real danger in their midst, and have been successfully duped, made pawns in a game which they obviously cannot see the shape of.
The answer to the assault on Swedish liberty at this time, is not to militate against those who are coming from abroad with little to no controls at the border, or the centres which have been designed for their housing, but to militate against the government directly, if at all, while forming alliances with the new arrivals. Both the immigrants and the people of Sweden are being used by powers they have no conception of. That situation is inexcusable, because I know the Swedes to be a singularly intelligent bunch by all accounts, and I cannot understand how it can be, that enough of them have allowed themselves to be used this way, to result in such widespread and foolish behaviour.
That energy, that anger, should be focused against the people who are really doing the damage to the lives of Swedish citizens, and that is the political leadership of their nation, and indeed the European Union to boot. Thrashing madly and waving their junk around as they are however, will avail them of nothing, except infamy and jail time. I am disgusted by their lack of foresight and situational awareness, more than anything else.

Your right this will rip every country into shreds. A house divided can not stand. Divide and conquer.
