Norway's problem with immigration

[evon]

The horror, this kind of article is just going to make the debate even more polarized. The problem with this article is that it creates a bond between sceptics to immigration with Racism full stop, its also badly written in terms of listing sources and so on, and saying that UK has no immigration problems of this nature is about as false as saying there grows potato’s on the moon, i have lived in England and have seen and experienced racism there many times, much worse then his "old lady" argument..

Well, one thing is clear, he will send many more voters towards FRP, the party he bashes in this article, which is whom will win this year no doubt...

What would you expect from one of the world's most advanced countries?

If you have wealth you also get people who want to profit of your wealth.

You have to breakdown where the immigrants come from. some of the ppl in this forum think that all of those immigrants are MENAs or a bunch of milk-chocolate somalis.

Pakistan and Somalia is high on that scale...

Thank you for the breakdown of the immigrant groups. :)

From what it looks like, the majority of the immigrants are from other Euro countries, but with significant groups of MENAs, somalis, and Anatolians.

[Marbeor]

Actually Moroccons are worse than Somalis. At least in my country

[Austo]

I think that all european countries have problems with immigrants (non european) , because always more and more come, because of stupid politicians who let everbody come in the country.

My honest opinion is that it wont take many more years, until there will be christian suicide bombers.

See, also this is only from 2001, not listen those whom came as far back as the 60-70's..

More East Asians then Anatolian, but i dont care so much about ethnic background (though western Europeans immigration is more likely to be skilled labour, rather then non-skilled labour, which we dont need), the problem i have with immigration is that we have enough now, our society cant absorb anymore without conflict, and we already have seen conflict arising from riots:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008%E2%80%932009_Anti-Israel_riots_in_Norway

And of course ABB's terror:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Norway_attacks

Our society needs a long period of stabilization..hence why immigration needs to stop now..
