Well, maybe hate crime.
I understand not jumping to conclusions, but a white man shooting up a school for immigrants kinda sounds like a duck
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.
Thank you for providing context for Sweden, where this happened, for the fuckers who think USA is global.
