Summary
Salwan Momika, the Iraqi man who staged several Quran burnings in Sweden in 2023, was shot and killed in Sodertalje, near Stockholm.
His actions had sparked international outrage, riots, and diplomatic tensions. Swedish police confirmed a murder investigation is underway, and several arrests have been made.
Momika, who sought asylum in Sweden in 2018, faced charges of incitement to hatred, with a verdict scheduled for the day after his death.
His protests were permitted under free speech laws but led to legal action against him.
…what does the state have to do with it? Fundamentalist Christians in the US burned books without state power. Nazis regularly encourage book burning and they haven’t had state power in a few decades.
This Nazi, for instance, did not have state power behind him. Just a group of sycophants encouraging his antics.
If you’re on the side of a book burning Nazi nut job, you’re the bad guy.
What has the state to do with it? Everything. I’m all for nazis burning books, clothes or wood. As long as it’s their own and they don’t harm anyone. I don’t know if he was a Nazi, he was full in his right to burn his own property. If you are worried about what someone does with his own shit, you might be the Nazi.
Right, so if I get a copy of your birth certificate, walk in front of your house after saying you shouldn’t exist, and burn your birth certificate you’re completely okay and wouldn’t think it’s a threat against you, right?
If I say ‘i hate (insert your race)’, and get material that is commonly associated with your local race and culture, and set it on fire in your front yard, you have no problems, right?
So the KKK did nothing wrong, according to your logic.
I’m not saying you really believe that, only a literal bigot would, but that’s what you’re arguing in order to justify your anti Muslim or anti religious hatred.
In my front yard? That’s trespassing, and a fire code violation. Also getting a copy of my birth certificate without my permission is against the law.
You can make an oil painting of me and burn it away from any flammable material.
The kkk was wrong because of the lynchings, and the guy in the news story hasn’t killed any Muslims, as far as I know. Quite the contrary, so Que would be saying QED if he weren’t dead.
