#1 But...they were leftists...violence...does not compute...arrgh...

Oh, of course, the pig is lying. Whew! Almost had a mental breakdown there. Lefists are all peaceful and only want the best and are never nihilistically negative in any way.

#3 It's Berlin, which is an imaginary place populated by unreal people, quite unlike the rest of Germany. As I recall, they were quite dismayed that reunification meant that Berlin really would become the working capitol of Germany. The natives (and immigrants from the rest of the country who'd come for the generous subsidies and protected lifestyle) deeply resented their haven being invaded by those who wouldn't share their vision. The critical question is whether there were similar riots elsewhere in Germany -- if not, this is merely the usual temper tantrum by those who enjoy indulging in such things.

#4 Germany must have changed more than I thought. I was there in 1972 when a group of thugs tried to cause trouble at Wiesbaden AB. The APs didn't intervene, the German Bundespolizei troops did. About 300 people were admitted to area hospitals with injuries ranging from a severed spinal chord to broken fingers. About 750 were jailed.
