Good.
I beg to differ, and I certainly don't want any blasphemy laws in Sweden!
A total of 2.1% of Swedes are Muslim. It isn't going to happen.
It happened in Denmark. Denmark and Sweden both fall into the 5-10 % bracket according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_in_Sweden?wprov=sfla1
So why exactly 'isn't it going to happen'?
No reason to create political uncertainty and foreign relation nightmares just because a bunch of right wing dumbasses want to burn a book.
Not even mentioning possible terrorist attacks.
And so giving in to their demands, enforced by threats, is the way to go?
No, absolutely not, no.
So you are saying that terrorism works?
It surprisingly does at time, after all. Bin Laden destroyed the fabric of American domestic security and, more importantly, forced the US into a long, expensive, and disastrous war.
I'm not sure that worked given the goal of al quaeda was the US not interfering in the middle east lol
