True Finns MP’s assistant suggests armbands for immigrants
24 replies, posted
[QUOTE]According to the Turun Sanomat, Finns Party MP James Hirvisaari, who was last year convicted and fined by Kouvola District Court for incitement to ethnic or racial hatred, is in trouble again.
This time the cause is his parliamentary assistant Helena Eronen, who suggested on her blog on the Uusi Suomi website that making it mandatory for immigrants to wear armbands would make policing significantly easier.
‘If every foreigner was obliged to wear a mark on their sleeve stating their country of origin, then the police could see at a glance that “aha, there’s a muslim from Somalia,” or “aha, that’s a beggar from Romania,”’ Eronen wrote.
Muslims could be assigned a crescent mark, Eronen added, and Russian immigrants a hammer and sickle emblem. She also proposed identifying marks for Swedish Finns and homosexuals.
The blog post was added on Wednesday afternoon, but was removed later that evening.
Eronen is the second Finns Party parliamentary to cause controversy. Late last year Juho Eerola’s parliamentary assistant Ulla Pyysalo admitted applying for membership of a Finnish neo-Nazi party.
According to a YLE report on February 23, Pyysalo was allowed to remain in her position because she couldn’t find any other job.[/QUOTE]

That's really low.. Those Comments are also revolting, the police would consider them people not beggers or Muslims, Jesus Christ

April fools was 12 days ago...
How did those fascists get into the Finnish parliament anyway?
this woman must be a genius
It supposedly was a "sarcastic comment", not meant to be taken seriously. At least what she said about it earlier today when being interviewed by the swedish paper, Dagens Nyheter; [url]http://www.uusisuomi.fi/kotimaa/121692-%E2%80%9Dhihamerkkikohu%E2%80%9D-levisi-ulkomaille-%E2%80%93-nain-eronen-kommentoi[/url]
(it's a finnish page, use a translator or something.)
Can you say damage control?
True Finns MP? Doesn't surprise me one bit.
I'd probably get an armband with a cup of tea on it, seeing as i'm half British and lived my childhood there :/

Man that's just...
and as usual, they desperately backpedal with "it was humour and this is completely out of context"

they were the biggest "new" party
honestly I think most people voted for them not because they agree, but because they were so fed up with the old parties

Translated these to English.
[quote]Sen tekstin oli tarkoitus olla täysin sarkastinen, mutta voin ymmärtää, miksi se ymmärrettiin väärin. Jos kuuluu perussuomalaisiin, kaikki tekemiset ymmärretään väärin, Eronen kommentoi.[/quote]
The text was meant to be sarcastic, but I can understand why it was misunderstood. If you belong to the True Finns, everything you do is understood wrong, Eronen comments.
[quote]Eronen on aiemmin sanonut Ilta-Sanomissa, että hänen kirjoituksensa meni överiksi. Eronen esitti tekstissään, että eri kansallisuuksia edustavat voisivat alkaa käyttää erilaisia hihamerkkejä, mikä helpottaisi poliisin työtä.[/quote]
Eronen said before in Ilta-Sanomat, that her writing went over the top. Eronen wanted to show in her text that people representing different nationalities could start wearing different kinds of armbands, which would make the job of the police easier.

They got in because the finnish people dont want the Swedish language as a mandatory subject in schools, i think this was the case.
[QUOTE=-nesto-;35539720]I think you mean decades[/QUOTE]
Fuck, you're right.
[QUOTE=Bucketboy;35539868]They got in because the finnish people dont want the Swedish language as a mandatory subject in schools, i think this was the case.[/QUOTE]Honestly, voting for those lunatics just because they'll remove Swedish as a compulsory subject from primary to high school is rather extreme.
This is exactly why they've been losing their support lately.
There's a good bulk of dangerous idiots in that party though most of them I guess tend to be maybe a BIT more mild with their views.
Edit: I don't even know why this party exists, it just attracts people suspectible to populism and racists.
Edit2: Happily I can say most people I know just think their party is a joke or just don't care.
