A Nigerian immigrant died early Sunday after falling from the window of a cafeteria in northern Greece, police said, in an episode that sparked an hours-long violent rampage by local immigrants.

Police said that the 25-year-old man had been selling pirated compact discs in a cafeteria in the Kalamaria area of Thessaloniki, Greece’s second city, shortly after midnight.

They said the man panicked after he saw two men watching him and mistook them for plainclothes police officers. The Nigerian, whose name was not released, then ran to a window of the cafeteria and jumped out, dying after hitting the pavement, according to police.

A real contender.

    Same old story…

    Immigrants claw their way into a country iilegaly by walking through deserts, floating on inner tubes, digging tunnels or hanging onto the landing gear of jumbo jets.

    First they sign up for every social program in existince.
    Then they create a neighborhood that is an exact duplicate of the country they just escaped.
    Then they protest their treatment by the country they are not supposed to be in.
    And always breed breed breed. I wonder how many Mexican 35 year old great grandmothers there are in the usa?

    I’m curious, how many people here could have named Greece’s second largest city before reading the article(and how many still can’t name it without looking?)

    #9 – Then they create a neighborhood that is an exact duplicate of the country they just escaped.

    The only difference is that here in North America we call it trailer parks.

    What are the odds the “two men watching him” threw him out the window. The only witnesses quoted seem to be police. 😉

  12. joshua says:

    This is 2007…..why is anyone surprised by illegal immigrants rioting because they are not treated well?? The age of **entitlement** is in full swing.
