Discussion: Attack on Synagogue Follows Shooting at Free Speech Event

Discussion for article #233276

The better half and I were guests of several Danish people in their homes when we visited Copenhagen on two different occasions. It saddens me that the Danes must experience the kind of national grief we have become so accustomed to in this country. They are kind and generous, almost all speak English fluently, they’re proud to be called “socialists” because it means they care for each other and still respect and honor their monarchy.

Denmark was the first European country I ever visited. Lovely, gentle, sane people, and famously tolerant; if there’s a society that gets it righter than they do I’m not aware of it. They’re nobody’s problem and it’s a goddamn shame there are freaks out there randomly gunning them down. They’re efficient too and I hope they’ve got law enforcement people with Viking DNA who can just find the bad guys and take them out, no muss no fuss.

This is so sad. Where’s Thor when you really need him? Danes are resilient people. I hope they catch the bastards.

No more…We must not let these religious maniacs get away with more killings from stupidity wherever they feel like doing so. In Denmark, of all non-Muslim countries? I’m not Danish, but I feel for this lovely country, because of a special relationship that I have with it. I have a mixed Danish-Haitian nephew, who I’ve “seen” before birth when I visited my sister in Denmark few years ago. I’ve had such a wonderful time and experience there, because the Danes are so civilized, humbled, as well as hospitable people. Although my sister moved back to the states with the family, I’d go there to show support to their way of life–free speech, especially–however I could.
