Filesharing more severe than sexcrimes.
Socialdemocrat Marcus Svärd was sentenced to 10 months in prison for “sexual abuse of child”. Today about 2.5 hours ago the sentence for the Pirate Bay guys was announced. They were sentenced to 1 year in prison. That for having a server(s). Now think about that for a while.
The outrages thing here isn’t just that they were found guilty and got 1 year in prison but the fact that Swedish courts have politically placed people there handing out judgements. We have people in courts who don’t even have the slightest idea of what TCP/IP is nor how it works. Doesn’t know the difference between Internet and world wide web. Doesn’t understand how BitTorrent works. The thing is that Pirate Bay themself have not fileshared anything at all. With this logic they could prosecute anything and everyone. Prosecute the oil companies because someone used a car to rob a bank (gas in the tank you know). Prosecute Intel because they have the leading spot in manufactoring CPU’s. After all, they made it possible to use that BitTorrent-client. Yeah yeah, not the same things but almost.

Not just sexcrimes but murder as well!
Two immigrants murdered a homosexual man. They were today sentenced to 1.5 and 3 years “closed youth care“. That is another saying for “kindergarden“. Yes. Justice is great in Sweden! Absolutely fabulous! I wonder when the parliament in Stockholm is set on fire because of crap like this.

Don’t get your hopes up, you guys are a long way from a parliament fire and quick powergrab. This ain’t Germany ’33, you haven’t got 30% of the popular vote, and it just quite frankly ain’t gonna happen.

It is most certain that it was no nazi sympathizer that sat fire to the german reichstag in 1933. Most evidence points at a disturbed syndicalist. So you don’t have to have 30% of the votes to be a extremist rebellion.

Don’t know exactly what you mean by “you guys” but i assume you mean rightwing? I’m anything between -90 degrees to +90 degrees about things in the society. Regarding crime and punishment i’m of course more to the +90 degrees. I mean, 1.5 years for murder and 1 year for filesharing? Nothing logical about that.
And when i wrote about fire in the parliament i didn’t think about Germany. Nazis belong in the same cesspool as communists.

The criminals are laughing at the Swedish justicesystem and at the courts. They know that they will get away with almost anything if it is done in Sweden. I will soon move to Denmark with my family as we have given up on Sweden – the new islamic state in Scandinavia.

Of course not, you are just talking about parliamentfires in general I suppose, with NO REFERENCES WHATSOEVER to other famous examples. And we can pretend you don’t constantly use immigrants and social democrates as examples, even though the laws apply in the same way for everyone.
Yes, the system is flawed, but you use these flaws as a platform for hatred. Authoritarian tendencies are not limited to the far right, or the far left. The next time totalitarianism rears it’s ugly head, the threat will come from authoritarian middle of the road people.
