The American embassy in Norway has filed an official complaint against the Norwegian rap group Gatas Parlament for death threats against President George W. Bush.
 

The group has established the website killhim.nu where the goal is to collect money for a bounty on the American president. The American embassy has reacted by reporting the artists to the police.

«There has been filed a formal complaint against Gatas Palament for threatening to shoot George W. Bush,» said Pål Kraby, police prosecutor at Oslo police district to NRK.no. «They have stated this at a website the group has.»

The police have launched an investigation, and the artists may face jail time.

«The sentencing framework of such an action, if it is punishable, will be incarceration for as much as 12 years. The law has to be interpreted in this way when there is a threat against a head of state,» Kraby said.

Socialism is an evil thing..
Rap is anti-music... and Socialism is Anti-Freedom...
American socialism is the evilist of all. A drag on the source of all freedom in this world.. America.. Without America there woul be zero freedom in this world.. No democracy on this earth provides rights to the citizens.. America is a republic and does.. Democracys provide privledges to their citzens but NO rights.. Privledges that can be witheld by their governments. Americas rights are granted by God not the government. They are inalienable specifically because of that reason. And we have the 2nd amendment to protect those rights(right to bear arms).

America is the ONLY country on earth with any "rights" for the citizens.. and they are inalienable by our government EVEN IF THEY DO alienate them because our government did NOT grant those rights in the first place...

AMERICA the source and lockbox of ANY human rights on this planet....

Gee, I'm sorry. Shame on me. My wife is a native born Norwegian and my paternal and maternal grandparents were born in Germany. Still have relatives there. I should know better, shouldn't I? Shame on me.
