Sixth Night of Violence in Sweden (Media spin defenders as "far right vigilantes")
http://www.cnbc.com ^ | 25 May 2013 | David Crouch Gothenburg

Rioting spread to several Swedish towns on Friday night as police stepped up arrests during a sixth night of unrest and far-right vigilantes chased non-whites in southern Stockholm.

In Linköping, central southern Sweden, police responded to 120 incidents as cars, caravans and two schools were set alight. At one point a blazing truck was rolled into a building, which caught fire.

"We see the night's events as an offshoot of what has happened in the Stockholm area in recent days," local police told Swedish television.

In Orebro, 120km west of Stockholm, police were stoned after cars and a school were torched. In Uppsalla, north of Stockholm, there was minor violence.

In Stockholm, police made 18 arrests - the largest number since the disturbances broke out last Sunday night in the northern suburb of Husby a week after an elderly immigrant was shot dead by police. The violence appears to have been sparked by young, second-generation immigrants from north Africa and the Middle East angered by racism and social exclusion.

That’s the new thing, to call Islamic fundamentalists “right-wing.” You can see the plan with that.

Not advocating anything, but what would happen if the defenders got proactive and started “rioting” in the mooselimb areas of town? You know, take the fight to them....

The Swedes need to arm themselves — and quickly.

First stop might have to be replacing the Quislings who are currently in power.

so, basically, the people who are tired of the rioters (and standing up for themselves) are the right-wing vigilantes...correct?

They are. They are also being called neo-nazis and hooligans as well. In fact they are native Swedes. Swedish Nationalists who are fighting against the alien invaders that are destroying their homeland.

“were stoned”

Well, no question who did that....now all we need is a beheading.

“....angered by racism and social exclusion.”

Oh, boo hoo. They were let in the lily-white place, weren’t they? As if they REALLY wanted to be with the in-crowd blonde jocks and chicks.

I’m seeing that too in media lately, but in this case they are calling the ethnic Swedes defending their property “far right”

Yeah - sure.

The violence appears to have been sparked by young, second-generation immigrants from north Africa and the Middle East angered by racism and social exclusion.

Exacly. “Social exclusion” in one of the most PC, pro-divesity countries on the planet.

just wanted to confirm that MSNBC is stating that only people on the right will stand up for themselves and their property. Basically, they are stating that the left is full of wusses :o)

Dear Sweden:

How's that multicultural imperative working out for ya?

Sharia?

Takers vs. Makers?

Islam is a ROP?

One of these days, this needs to happen. Just saying. Can’t happen soon enough, though.

I thought the Swedes were armed more or less like Israelis are.
