    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.

          For context, I’m from Italy. I’m just worried about the kind of violence directed specifically towards anyone “different”, whether it’s about skin color, place of origin or anything else

        Jesus christ, imagine finding out your son is the perpetuator of a horrific shooting and is dead from a tabloid reporter. I have way more sympathy for the families of the actual victims but it’s still awful for the father.

          I knew a guy who died in a car wreck in northern Norway and the picture of the wreck was up on the front page of the paper before his mother was notified. She found out by opening the website and seeing her sons car.

        So you’re not racist, but just involved in a “culture clash”? Hmmm.

      I’m white and went to a school like that to get my missing qualifications for university admission. University admission is based on having certain grades in certain classes. So if you want to study something that you didn’t take the classes for in high school, then you need to take them as an adult. I for example had to take a mathematics class. There were about 50/50 Europeans/non Europeans at the school I went to.
