True! America is racist, but so is Sweden! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <http://www.ios.com/~dizzyman/haha/> Read the book! Ha Ha Ha McNamara,Vietnam-My Bellybutton is my Cristalball. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SWEDISH GRAFITTI AN A TRAVEL GUIDE Recently the United Nations gave and award to Sweden because of its work on equality. Obviously the United Nations representatives have had the wool pulled over their eyes or are blind to the fact that Sweden has become a racist society. That in Sweden, discrimination and segregation in the workplace, in the living areas, in the schools, has become a serious problem and in some areas of the country, general praxis. That in other words means that 20% of the population (non Swedes and families of the first and second generation of non Swedes) are treated unfairly, undemocratically and unequaly. Furthermore the situation has become so serious that last night on national TV, on the program Striptease, we had a situation where Swedes in a little town in the south quite openly defended a racist youth gang who murdered a black youth in brutal cold blood. Where a leader of this bloodthirsty mob was allowed on the program to defend their program of extermination. In fact, a Jewish woman was forced to leave the program because she refused to be in the same room with this racist. This Jewish woman stated that she felt that she was reliving the thirties of Germany once again. So naturally one has to question the sanity of those in the United Nations who have given this award to Sweden. The equality for the non-Swedes in Sweden is beginning to look like the equality black people had in Alabama or Little Rock, Arkansas in the United States during the late fifties and early sixties... Believe me, I was there. When I say racism, I mean the general rise in vicious attacks on non-Swedes. People murdered in cold blood on public streets or thrown in to lakes after being severely beaten, in order to die. I mean the burning of crosses on the front lawns of people's homes. In fact even firebombing of homes and stores owned by non-Swedes. These acts of ever increasing terror are perpetrated on people who's only crime is not being a Swede or having black skin. The courts, the prosecutors and even the minister of justice appear to be paralysed and do nothing to stop these racist attacks. In fact there is a death sheet with 300 names on it, people the racist terrorists say should die. One prosecutor actually recommends people not to do anything when confronted with his or her name on it.
