I don't know if it has hit the international news yet. But the fanatic religious muslims in Denmark have last night retaliated with burnings of Danish schools and other various property.
This happens side by side with our local autonomous groups that you might previously have read about when there was some trouble about a certain house being torn down in Central Copenhagen.


It is time to have a look at our world and have a redefinition of what tolerance is!
We have now for millenia tried to make religions live in balance, or more precisely, tried to enforce our religion as the most valuable, "right", "best for man". Apart from one religion, which in fact really is a philosophy, all this trying has been in ignorance, blinded by false idolities and we have come no further...

It is time to face that when we talk about tolerance, it does NOT include the likes of religion. Religion is in every way (when you put an idol behind everything you say instead of common sense) a direct and a utter failure for a modern society that wishes to evolve. Wether you're christian, muslim, jewish etc. attempting to control a freeborn human being in the name of a god that you have no tangible evidence of ever existed except from words of those who could actually profit from it is NOT ok.

I know I'm not allowed to encourage violent retaliation against any religious fanatic who is willing to hurt free people in the name of his god.
I know it is unintelligent to answer one ill favor with another.
I know that I can't entice people to uphold total freedom from religious people by the means of weapons...

But I would sure like to!

Obey the laws of the free country you live in... not the religion under which you suffer!


If you think your country is not a free one... well, what do YOU have to do then?

Original article:

ekstrabladet.dk...

Denmark was in flames tonight
All over the country young people with other ethnic background than Danish has pillaged and burned schools and cars. Sjælland is hit hardest.


For the sixth night in a row Copenhagen, the rest of Sjælland and Aarhus has been plagued by fires and destruction of property by young people of other ethnical backgrounds than Danish.
Moreover several young people has been arrested for throwing rocks at police patrolcars... the police had another busy night.

Again tonight the trouble in Copenhagen was concentrated around Nørrebro and the north-west area, but also in Valby young people tried to set fire to a parked car with a molotovcocktail.

The nights encounters let to seven arrests of young people. All in the age between 15 and 17.

It's the kids who are out playing cops and robbers, the leader of the central invstigation team by Copenhagen policedepartment, Lay Thygesen says to ekstrabladet.dk.

The schools are burning
It was posibly also young boys with other ethnic backgrounds than Danish that set fire to Magistervejens Skole in Copenhagens north-west area. The extent of the damages are not yet known.

It would appear though that the police is starting to use new means to try to dampen the wave of destruction, violence and fire. Often this kind of mischief would lead to charges of misdemeanor. But tonight the police in Copenhagen has chosen to charge the offenders with harder paragraphs of the Danish law so the youths can be brought to court and inprisoned.

In Bagsværd one of the buildings at Værebroskolen disappeared in flames and in Høje Gladsaxe close by, the firedepartment was also busy the whole night throughout the night with putting out small fires all over town.

The police has intensified patrols around the schools.

According to the central leader on duty at Copenhagen Policedepartment, Jakob Kristensen, the unsettlements are orchestrated by small groups of 5-10 people.

- To begin with we saw a a lot of ambushing the police and firedepartment through setting fires. This is not the image we had tonight. Now more of the efforts seems to be about tipping over cars, setting them on fire and run away, Jakob Kristensen says.

Amongst others a 15-year-old is being charged of throwing a rock against the front window of a patrolcar.

Sjælland hit hardest
In Greve about 15 young boys set fire to no less than eight cars on a parking lot and gasstation was vandalised.
When the police came they were met with throwing of stones. The police was succesful in dispersing the group of offenders but they made no arrests.

Arrests however was made in Kalundbord which has also been plagued by small fire throughout the night. Two young people were arrested.

Also in Nordsjælland there was heated encounters.

- From 20.25 to 20.50 we received 12 reports about cars set on fire. It was concentrated around Holmegårdsparken, Islandshøjparken and Mellemengen. We haven't made any arrests and there are no large groups of young people gathered at this moment, the officer in charge at Nordsjællands Policedepartment say, Henrik Hattel, says and adds that the firedepartment so far has been able to work in peace.

In Birkerød two cars have be set alight at a cardealer's, while a single car is burning in the parking cellar under Nygårdsterrasserne in Farum Midtpunkt.

There were lots of small container fires in other towns around Sjælland.

Aarhus in flames
Also the nation second largest city has had a busy night.

The police and firedepartment was again bombarded with large rocks thrown by angry youngsters. The unsettlements this time spread from Gellerup to Viby and Risskov, where youngsters set fire to containers. The firedepartment repsponded to atleast 17 deliberate fires around Aarhus.
This is reported by Østjyllands Policedepartment.

A 17-year-old man, who threw a large rock at a patrolcar has been arrested.

In Odense there has been some deliberate fire in some containers in the subburb of Dalum. The officer in charge at Fyns Policedepartment however could not be sure it was related to the rest of the fires around the country.

I salute you Rock!

We need more people to release themselves from the ancient chains of religion... any religion!

Although I don't believe in communism, I would like to repeat one beautiful statement once made:

"Religion is poison"
