‘Absurd’ — African Pirate Given Prosthetic Leg, Residence Permit, and Integration Aid in Denmark After Attacking Danish Navy
Breitbart ^ | 12 Oct 2024 | Kurt Zindulka

Denmark will pay for an “integration plan” and a prosthetic leg for a Nigerian pirate after granting him residency, two years after he attacked the Danish Navy off the coast of Africa.

Nigerian Lucky Frances will receive taxpayer-funded aid in attaining employment and education to help him “integrate” into Denmark after being brought to the country in 2021 when he lost his leg in a firefight with the Danish navy after his band of pirates attacked the Esbern Snare frigate off the coast of Africa...

Not only did the African pirate avoid imprisonment for attacking the Danish sailors, despite being found guilty, but he was also granted a residence permit to remain in the country .. Adding insult to injury, a court ordered that the state pay for the Nigerian national to be fitted with a prosthetic leg.

“This is absolutely absurd.

...

“No, he shouldn’t be let out at all. He has tried to kill Danish soldiers, and therefore he should be in prison or in a closed immigration centre,” Mikkel Bjørn.

...

The governing Danish Social Liberal Party also defended the decision, with MP Zenia Stampe saying: “Those are the rules, after all. If you turn it around, it would be strange if you did not require him to go through such a process in order to receive integration benefits.”

Danish broadcaster DR has reported that the lengthy series of court cases involving the Nigerian national have cost the Danish taxpayers an estimated 4.2 million Danish kroner, or around $615,000.

This calculation does not take into account the costs associated with helping to provide him with a prosthetic or the costs of helping him integrate into the country.

In Denmark you can’t hang a man with a prosthetic leg.

The Russian give them the naval mini-gun award - as much lead as their bodies will hold, as fast as possible.

More proof that the West is utterly dedicated to killing itself.

Either Lucky Frances is lucky indeed, or Denmark is unbelievably stupid.

What happened to walking the plank or hanging from the yard-arm? There’s no excuse for a pirate to ever make it to shore.

“Lucky Frances”

That’s a pretty good pirate name. The Danish taxpayers can feel good about that at least — that they’re giving a peg leg to a guy who’s authentically piratey.

I don’t have a problem with this, he was misguided and has totally learned his lesson.

I am sure he will turn out to be a productive member of society there.

Maybe he will have a children’s show about pirates and make public service announcements in his home country about how cold it is in Norway, and how he has to eat radioactive ground reindeer meat

This level of leftist stupidity defies normal, and correct human nature. A child from the youngest age knows you don’t do these things. A snake is a snake and will always bite you. Only leftist indoctrination and beta cucks can do stupid crap like this.
