Life is not an abstraction

I just saw the critically acclaimed Danish move ‘Drabet’ (Drab is the term for voluntary manslaughter in Danish) by Per Fly, one of our best filmmakers here in Denmark, and it is one of those films that makes you think.

The film revolves around the killing of a Danish police officer by a group of left-wing “activists” – the officer is killed after the three has razed a (fictitious) arms producer

The film contains a scene where one of the characters tries to relativise the killing of the policeman to Iraqi children struck with cancer due to American usage of depleted uranium weapons and other similar stories.

And it is just such a callous think to say – or even think. It is just wrong on so many levels, I don’t even know where to begin.

Just today, I read that the young “activists” from the late “Ungdomshuset” that was torn down earlier this year are contemplating real terrorism. In an article I found on Politiken, one of them says the following:

People are fed up with militant action that does not work. It would be more effective with assault, firebombings or kidnappings. It could be a police officer, Ritt Bjerregaard or Ruth Evensen

And their apologist lawyer states:

The young people do not feel that they are being listened to. They are becoming desparate and that is dangerous

and continues

I distance myself from violence when ever I am asked. But I will not preach non-violence to the young people. That is not my job.

And all this over them having a house to hang around with their friends in. Apparently, they are prepared to kill to get this “right”.

I just pray that God may protect both the persons named above and all our police officers that go to work every day, always knowing that today might be the day where you get killed by someone who looks upon you not as a human being, but as a representative of a system they are against.

truly bizzarre

I have long since stopped being amazed that it continously is the "anti facist", "anti racist" left-wings that indeed are the ones performing violence and admire terror.

- since their autonomous, well cut their welfafe checks then ;)

That would be an obvious

That would be an obvious thing to do. It would not even require the passing of a new law. Under the current law if you get the standard unemployment-benefits, you have to be "available" for the job market, meaning that you are supposed to do your best to get a job.

If you run around clothed like most of them, you are not likely to get one - so if the authorities adopted a stricter interpretation of the law, most of them would probably have to do something to keep getting benefits.

In any case, it's hardly all of them that are unemployed - although there are no official statistics, it seems like most either go to school or have menial jobs.

In any case, you can't do much of anything about it, as long as the (mainly leftist) press in Denmark are positive against the "autonomers".
