Importing Unrest: Refugee groups clash at Norway asylum center

A group of more than 40 people armed with iron bars and knives has attacked a holding centre for asylum seekers in Norway, injuring more than 20 people.
Quote:
The attack, at a centre in Valer, 60km (40 miles) south of Oslo, was sparked by a disagreement between two groups of asylum seekers, reports said.

No-one was seriously hurt but 10 people reportedly needed hospital treatment.

The Nordbybraten centre houses 200 refugees from Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Russia, Somalia and Eritrea.

Police said they were investigating the incident, but had made no arrests.

The head of the facility, Ole Morten Lyng, said the cause of the attack appeared to be a minor dispute between two groups at the centre that had been blown out of proportion.

I read this and was thinking Chechens fighting Kurds...that makes no sense. If it was Turks or Arabs fighting Kurds, it would some sense. My guess is just some local dispute.

I heard about Serbs and Albanians too. These people just don't leave their baggage behind them.

If you put Jews and Nazis in the same holding camp during WW2, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have gotten along either.

Probably not, but how does that apply here?

Norway should not allow any one to seek asylum.

Norway should open its borders to all who wish to move there.
They should actively encourage Sudanese, Iraqis, Moroccans, Chechens and Gypsies to move to Norway and accept immediate citizenship.

It would be a global tragedy if hot Norwegian babes were replaced with Somalians, even the most politically correct, Pokemon-toting liberal cannot dare deny this.

Holy fuck, dude! You did it again.

Seriously, everyone should just ignore this guy's posts. He CONSTANTLY brings up shit that has no bearing on the thread topic. Just sift through his past posts and you'll see what I mean.
