I don’t know how much this is covered outside Sweden, but today a young man went inside a school in Sweden and attacked people, at least two adults and two teenagers. Two of these, one adult, one child, are now dead. The man itself was killed by the police. There is already lots of evidence that points to this being an attack motivated by racism. At least one of the victims were of African descent and the murderer was Swedish.
It’s terrible, terrible news. Having a child the same age as the killed and wounded children makes this very easy for me to imagine the agony their families must be in right now. And I’m so angry that after this, people have the stomach to excuse the murder of children and blame immigrants and refugees for this.
What happened today was nothing to what happened in Norway in 2011, but everything points to the same kind of perpetrator. And they are terrorist and what they have done are acts of terrorism. I’m so appalled with people who can find it in themselves to excuse this. Sweden have fascist party in the parliament and they have worked hard to get their disgusting views seen as politically correct. They have recently whipped up a lot of hatred against the war refugees coming to Sweden and in the last week three housings for refugees have burned. No one had died- yet. And now this. This is what hatred do. How can anyone want that?
