The Stabber Killed Three People in an Extremely Multicultural City

The day's news in Finland (Yle, Ilta-Sanomat, Etelä-Suomen Sanomat) reported on a terrorist attack that took place at the "Festival of Diversity" in the German city of Solingen, where three people were fatally stabbed. Additionally, four other people were injured.

The terrorist was a male, but I couldn’t find any more specific details in the Finnish media. However, there is a claim circulating on social media that the attacker was an "Arab immigrant." Time will tell whether this claim is true or not.

There was also a credible claim on social media that, in the same city of Solingen, an African man attempted to set fire to a restaurant owned by someone of Arab descent at the end of June. However, something went wrong, and the arsonist ended up setting only himself on fire.

The city's population is very diverse, as already in 2020, around 35 percent of the population was non-ethnic Germans. The largest population groups were Italians, Turks, and Syrians, but people from as many as 140 different countries lived in the city. Among children under the age of three, a full 56 percent had a migration background, so it won't be long before ethnic Germans become a minority in the city.

One can only hope that the stabber is caught as soon as possible and receives the deserved punishment for his crime. And that the Germans channel any potential frustration with the new Germans democratically—by voting in the upcoming elections for politicians who know how to solve the immigration problem that has arisen in the country.

Hopefully, for us Finns and other Europeans, this case shows that diversity comes at a price. And therefore, its excessive increase in Finland would also have consequences.

Why Were Violent Protests Acceptable for George Floyd but Not for the UK Child Murders?

The United Kingdom was thrown into chaos when a man of Rwandan descent stabbed several children to death in a northern English city. Since then, there have been protests throughout the country, including in the capital and Northern Ireland.

The protests were immediately condemned as far-right riots, but in my view, their scale indicates that this is a broader phenomenon. This is true even though there are undoubtedly many far-right individuals involved.

The fact remains that no sane person condones the stabbing of children. And it’s not just about the outrage caused by the actions of one second-generation immigrant, but about the long-standing immigration-related issues that have been seen in Britain.

The most well-known of these in Finland are probably the Telford and Rotherham rape rings, which were primarily run by people of Pakistani descent and had over a thousand victims, most of whom were young working-class British girls. During this time, authorities failed to treat sexual violence with the seriousness it required because they feared being labeled as racist.

This same problem apparently still plagues the authorities of the island nation, who have deployed police forces against the protesters. And the journalists, who instead of reporting objectively, have focused on questioning the motives of angry Britons.

This is why it is necessary to ask the people of Britain and the world—especially those who see far-right extremism and racism everywhere—why they consider violent protests acceptable in the case of George Floyd, but not in response to the child murders that have shocked the United Kingdom?
