4 days agoWhat does skin color have to with it being classified as terror crime or not? This isn’t America.
This is verbatim what the police press officer said
Det finns nu inga misstankar om att det handlar om ett terrorbrott, och polisen tror att mannen har agerat på egen hand, även om man inte utesluter fler med koppling till dådet, säger Roberto Eid Forest.
While it definitely appears to be a hate crime, i just cant emphasize how different racial relationships are in Sweden compared to USA.
We didn’t have a constitution that said people are free, whilst justifying slaves by saying they weren’t human, since they were “black”
What we have are cultures that completely clash in modern times due to many, many reasons.
Hate crime, likely, but we don’t know. Because Swedish authorities doesn’t publicize such info out of concerns of privacy for potentially innocent adjacent.
Grotesquely enough one tabloid called the suspects father and started asking “why he did it”. He hadn’t even heard of the crime on the news yet. Its fucking disgusting what they did.
Terrorism, not likely. And saying anything else while the bodies were still warm would have been basis for dismissal as press officer.
