Muslims in Sweden

[WabUfvot5]

Been meaning to post this for a while to see reaction but xoxoxoBruce's thread gave me the needed kick in the ass.

I first saw this video almost two years ago. Given the source I was very skeptical. So I asked a Swede who went to college with me (he'd not spent much time in Sweden for a few years) about it. He hadn't heard a thing about it. So natually I thought it was just FOX trying to hype up its viewers. Not that FOX has ever distorted anything before. Fair and balanced of course

Then a couple weeks ago I came upon this article: Muslims rule major Swedish City¹. So I asked another Swede, this time one who lives near Malmö. He said there was a lot of truth to it. Not all the immigrants were to blame of course but there were more problems because of them. He even admitted there are areas you just don't go unless you want to be beaten.

Of course any calls for restraint or integration are met with accusations of racism or Nazi sympathy. So the people are largely "Bushed" into accepting it. Despite those tactics the "racist" party to finish up 3rd in the most recent voting. My friend said that was pretty unheard of.

After some more googling I came across this article: Race in Scandinavia. It's pretty comprehensive and should probably be mandatory reading for anybody trying to understand what's going on over there.

I probably shouldn't need to remind any Cellarites of this either: Muslim Protests Against Cartoons Spread.

Some things to think about when thinking of burkas being banned.
