Wednesday, May 04, 2005 Is Swedish Democracy Collapsing? A top Muslim scholar said the Muslim minority in Sweden would abide by Swedish law in confronting a Christian preacher who insulted Prophet Muhammad, urging his fellow Swedish Muslims not to take the law into their own hands or commit any violent acts to avenge the remarks of the Christian cleric. Norwegian celebrity evangelist preacher Runar Søgaard, in a sermon at Filadelfia church in Stockholm on March 20, repeated claims that Muhammad was "a confused pedophile" since his wives included a girl aged nine years old. Søgaard is under protection by Swedish police after receiving death threats. The sermon has triggered fears of a religious war in Sweden.

I think the Van Gogh killing next door in Finland has made the natives rethink their immigration policies. It'll be interesting to watch what happens over here.
These people seem to be very easy going and tolerant but if you bring your intolerance to their shores, its a whole different story.
If you're talking about Theo Van Gogh, that was in The Netherlands :confused:.
Opps! You're right... my bad ; )
Truth hurts
