I dunno, the choice between squatting for a couple of years while ignoring court orders seems better than torching the place. Maybe I'm not chaotic enough!
I agree, but sometimes reason vanishes when people are under great stress. The first neighborhoods put to fire in Detroit were the same low income, majority black ones the arsenists lived in. It made no sense to attack the homes of their neighbors but they did it anyways. The anger was as intense as the flames, no one was spared.
