Refugees refusing to leave bus in 'too cold' Sweden to be removed
The Guardian ^ | 29 October 2015 | AFP

Posted on 10/28/2015 10:11:36 PM PDT by Cronos

Swedish authorities were called on Wednesday to remove a group of refugees who have refused to get off a bus after being taken to a village three days ago, saying it was “too cold” and isolated.

..The group refusing to get off the bus have complained about being in a forest dozens of kilometres from the nearest town, and many of them have demanded to be taken to a big city, or even to Germany.

“With the number of arrivals continuing to increase, the accommodations we can find are further and further away from the big cities,” Lofgren said, adding that cases of people refusing their relocation sites were still rare.

Sweden, with a population of 9.8 million, expects to receive up to 190,000 asylum applications this year, putting it among the EU states with the highest proportion of refugees per capita as the continent struggles with a massive number of displaced people.

But the country’s long, dark winter, where temperatures can fall as low as -30C, is a major challenge for people moving from warmer climes.

Why aren't they being relocated to Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and similar? Good grief.

That was never the goal. They are to invade western countries to overwhelm them and turn them into part of the Caliphate.

People are willfully ignorant about that.

They just believe what govt and media tell them.

They won’t read any part of the koran that spells it out or do any research.

They just spout off all that BS that we’re “bigoted” or ignorant or xenophobic or whatever.

It is maddening!

And if you find the temperature disappointing wait until you see what awaits at the 72 virgins stop.

Don’t anyone else see the problems coming.. Are these countries ignorant or is it just that they “Care”..so to speak. At any rate, terrorism will increase dramatically so maybe they are part of the problem. Stupid Assholes...

I have a simple three step plan that will keep them nice and warm.

Step 1. Dig a large deep hole.

Step 2. Climb into the hole.

Step 3. Pull all of the dirt from the hole back in on top of them.

Earth is a fantastic insulator!

It will be great if 90% of Muslim refugees get seasonal affective disorders and have to move back home. They are more comfortable going crazy from the sun (and the heat) in those desert realms.
