Volunteer street patrols linked to neo-Nazi groups have emerged in several Finnish towns in recent months claiming to protect locals from what they call “Islamic intruders”, a trend the Finnish government condemned on Thursday.
“There are extremist features to carrying out street patrols. It does not increase security,” Finnish Interior Minister Petteri Orpo said in an interview with national broadcaster YLE.
“Volunteers have no right to use force,” he added.
Unarmed groups of men, most identifying themselves as “Soldiers of Odin” in reference to an ancient Germanic and Scandinavian god, have been seen patrolling in at least five different towns where reception centres for newly-arrived asylum seekers have recently opened…
“I think it’s a crazy idea. There’s the police and other authorities doing their jobs well. It’s a kind of militia,” said 27-year-old Safi Kamil from Baghdad, drawing a comparison with the militia groups active in his native country.
They say neo-Nazis, but you get the impression anyone who isn’t a good, cowering rabbit in the face of governmental fiats is labeled a Nazi.
One advantage to ineffectual rabbit leaders is that by the time the economic collapse hits, everyone will be be largely adapted to living without central government influence on their lives, save for the people who won’t get their checks. Of course if local vigilante groups are active, expect those welfarites to watch their asses, at least in Europe.
K is happening, right before our eyes.
