"Youth" riot at Helsinki amusement park

[Eldritch]

Helsinki’s Linnanmäki amusement park was closed an hour ahead of schedule on Sunday evening because of a large fight that broke out there. Police received a report of the brawl shortly before 7:00 PM. The incident reportedly involved up to 150 young people.

The confusion was so serious that a decision was made to close the park immediately.

The incident broke out as a clash between young people of an immigrant background, sparked by an attempt at queue-jumping. Those involved were between 10 and 20 years old, said Kirsi Kanth of the Helsinki Police.

Police suspect ten people of assault and battery, but nobody was detained.

Crowds at Linnanmäki were large on Sunday because of a special two for the price of one sale on admission bracelets. The crowd was estimated at between 15,000 and 20,000.

Yeah, I heard about this from a friend just a little while ago. I assumed from the beginning that the youths involved didn't go by names like Jani and Matti.

Welcome to Suomalia!







Multiculturalism is a wonderful thing. For many kids a visit to Lintsi is the one of the highlights of summer. I'm sure this one was particularly memorable.

The best (and only) correct decision is to get the hell out of the EU immediately and to boot the multicultural baggage elsewhere. Ignore the situation and Finland will end up like the UK, France etc

When I opend this thread I thought it was going to be about Finno-Ugrians getting drunk and causing havoc.

"Linnanmäki, the amusement park in Helsinki had to close their doors for 15 000 people who were enjoying themselves when 2 groups of up to 150 people of immigrant background, decided to fight. It has been confirmed by witnesses that one of the groups consisted of [b]Somalians and the other group possibly consisted of Gypsies."

Apparently Somalis vs. Gypsies. We won't ever know via the mainstream media, but I'm keeping my eye on Finnish forums and blogs.

Could someone at last explain me please why all Scandinavian countries have so many Somalis?

Could someone at last explain me please why all Scandinavian Nordic countries have so many Somalis?

I think generous welfare benefits and family-reunification programs have something to do with it. Also, it's virtually impossible for a ethnically correct person like a Somali to be imprisoned or deported.

Also, there are tons of Somalis all over Europe, and some in north America. But their numbers seem greater due to the tiny Nordic populations.
