Swedish Foreign Minister assasinated...

[Mammoth]

It is with great sadness to post that Anna Lindh was knifed down in the central part of Stockholm yesterday while on a private shopping round at NK. She died 05:29 this morning. She was one of the few politicians that people had respect for here. She had a did an awesome job and had earned the respect of many of the people down in Brussels. Hope they find the coward who did this horrible act. She left her husband Bo and two young children. EYE FOR AN EYE.
Don't belive in prayers but this shit really wieghts on the soul this morning. If you can lend it a thought...

heres a news story:

whoah...
stabbing a woman, that's a really corageous act indeed huh
that article that yetti linked is interesting... specially the fact that politicians go around without bodyguards like normal people
here in argentina they're far from being normal people; 85% of them see themselves far above normal people and think they deserve all their privileges, and they damn well better have protection because they know themselves that the entire population hates their guts, and they know very well why too... so it's really a different landscape
and even then stuff like this happens... i'm sorry to hear that :-(

I think (as well many others) the man who stabbed was against voting of €uro, though he - in my opinion - just made people say "yes" to euro.

So, another victim for nothing, I'd guess.

It's always very sad to hear news like this. My deepest condolences to everyone who knew her.

[COBabe]

wazz up Sandra? i think it's getting cold in Germany too.

 

[Lolita Vampiriá]

It's just so frightening that these things can happen in Scandinavia too. I sincerely hope Swedish police will find the murderer soon. Terrible loss for Anna's family...

Well it's kinda weird... according to what I've lived here feels to me like in Scandinavia politicians don't suck as much as they usually do (still a lot of corruption)... but it's kind of.... something that actually looks like "democracy"
(Still suspiciuos and sceptical tho!!) And I've heard that in Canada it's more or less the same or even better???

 

[COBabe]

@zoli: yeah, it´s cold here...are you back in hungary?

 

[stefan86]

[Janina]

It's been on the news here all the time, I hope they'll find the guy fast. It's not nice knowing, that there's a killer out there

Hell, this was even bigger news, than the fact, that we have a fucking cannibal here in Finland
