Libertarians in Sweden are complaining whenever a non-blonde person is stopped by our customs officers. We know that in all airport controls and other security controls an 85 year old white haired lady is just as likely to be called in for a check as a 25 year old muslim male.
We cannot even handle those hostis humani generis that are preying on the shipping off the Horn of Africa.
It appears we learned nothing from the terror decades of the 70s and 80s.
(Sorry for sounding so negative, but I'm tired and at the moment I'm rather upset about the general stupidity of my fellow beings.)
Yeah, I was just posting on another thread about the Islamist piracy problem — another area where the world (i.e., USA and allies) needs to take notice and exterminate the vermin before the problem grows much, much larger. They are collecting tens of millions of dollars from piracy - before long it will be a lot more unless we stamp out the pirate nests and dens along the Somali coast. We need to make the Indian Ocean and Gulf of Aden no-go areas for pirates — establish limited shipping lanes for legitimate vessels so that they can be more readily monitored and protected. Then sink every #%@%@%# pirate boat that can be identified, trace their points of origin, etc. I know it’s all “easier said than done” but it seems like the world (i.e., USA and key allies) had better take the problem more seriously before it grows and grows.
ScaniaBoy,
In Sweden (and Norway - The Oslo police just today told people to stay away from the area around the central station) you have another problem that a laser beam is unable to focus on.
Gangs ruling the streets. Gangs attacking retirements homes in Trollhaettan. Girls being raped. Youngsters being assaulted and robbed.
Not to derail the thread.
