Who are we supposed to be most afraid off?

Just this morning the government annouced that a number of tickets given for traffic violations would be doubled in order to scare the population to remain at home.

Trust me, I am terrified with the shootings around Denmark due to the ongoing gang war between biker clubs and gangs consisting of second or third generation immigrants, but now where our government has taken side and has introduced new tough laws which means deportation of gang-members with non-Danish etnic roots, this war will end in short time.

However now the population will suffer again and this time it is the central government over in Copenhagen who is the tormenters.

It seems that we ordinary citizens are supposed to live in scare for the rest of our lives.

I am almost coming to the conclusion that I rather want to live with the fear of being struck by a bullet than living with the fear of ongoing monitoring by the policeforces from the central government.

What do they want from us?

First they order that hand-held phones are banned. So we all start texting because the quality of handsfree solutions under 50 dollars are poor. That means more danger in trafic than hand-held phones if you ask me.

Speeding is considered something to be proud off if you ask around inside Danish firms. When an employee is speeding he is also showing that how faithful the employee is toward both his colleagues and firm. The government is asking for an increase in unemployment and outsourcing of jobs abroad. Why sending more jobs to foreign countries? We send all our old ships to India already when they are sold for scrap, but ships are big in size. There is no profit in sending smaller items to the third world for scrapping.

This scare-tactics of our government is un-danish and we cannot recover from the present economical crisis if we all run around scared.

But it seems that our politicians has lost touch with the population and a solution to how we can regain the connection to them will demand too much from a beaten nation. So we have no choice but to live in fear.

I am afraid all the time.

Civil war in Denmark

Right now Denmark is suffering from a civil war. I am almost afraid to leave my house. I am only doing the necessary shopping. How did this civil war start? Here is some background information:

Back in the 1980's Hell Angels entered Denmark and started a war with an all Danish biker club called Bullshit. After introducing machineguns they wiped out Bullshit and took over the drug market which until 2003 was concentrated in a part of Copenhagen which proclaimed their independence of the Danish laws in 1971 (Christiania).

In 1994 the second gang war started. This was called the Great Nordic Biker War. This time they used weapons left behind by the Red army. We were talking anti-tank rockets and of course machine guns. Our army was tied up in Bosnia and the biker gangs outgunned the police forces 10 times. The Danish police did however increase their firepower and political pressure and threats of recalling our army meant that the Tinndahn-Nielsen peace agreement was made in 1997.

This agreement divided the drug market in Denmark between the two groups.

Some years ago our present government invaded Christiania and closed Pusher Street. A huge percentage of our police force is now tied as an occupying force limiting their capacity in relationship with other police business.

The same year the age limit for alcohol purchase limit was raised from 15 to 16. As result of the invasion the drug market were spread out all over our country. Where the police in the old days stood at the border and fined people for drug use, drugs are now sold in every school all over our country.

But not only is the closure of Pusher Street to blame. Danes are introduced to alcohol by their parents aged 14 or 15 when they are confirmed. With the old age limit they could purchase alcohol in the shops without disturbing their parents. Personally I have no problems with a teen aged 14 drinking alcohol, but here kids are generally polite and leave us alone instead of asking for the same thing all day. Unfortunately the difficult access to alcohol means that they turn to drugs instead. We are now talking of 2 drugs users in every class-room when they are leaving middle school. We have a European statistic here.

After the second gang war the biker clubs became lazy. New groups of second generation youth coming from the Middle East entered the market. They are youth who celebrate 9/11 as a victory.

The official Denmark asked the media to start the Cartoon war. The cartoons were based on Herge's masterpiece from 1930 of a journalist from Belgium visiting the Central Republic of Congo. Our victory was huge, but it didn't scare the youth gangs away.

Last year the third gang war started and now people in certain parts of Copenhagen are strip-search both by the police and the youth gangs when they enter parts of Denmark no longer under control by the central government in Copenhagen. As ordinary and peaceful citizens we are placed in a loose-loose situation.

1) The police have given extra powers to strip-search people without reason. They can detain people for 6 hours as preventive detention. They don't have to bring charges forward and don't need to involve the court-system. The damage for ordinary citizens are huge if they are recognized by family, colleagues or business partners because it means guilt in the eyes of the public if a person has business with the police without protesting loudly. If we choose to leave our house our reputation and career could be damaged beyond repair.

2) If the youth gangs find tattoos or people are unshaved looking like a member of a biker gang undercover they are attacked with knife or guns.

3) In towns outside Copenhagen locals attack strangers. Several yokels attacked a college with foreigners because they had been insulted by people from Iceland. Unfortunately they started to shoot at people from Poland. In Denmark a person is regarded as a stranger if this person chooses to move more than 50 kilometers from his or her hometown.

Right now we are prisoners in our own home. We are waiting whether our government decides to pull our forces from the 11'th Christian crusade in Afghanistan. The gang war is now a full scale civil war. Just yesterday the police created a strip-search zone in Esbjerg in Jutland.

Just the last 48 hours, two people have been shot. One of them died. I am going to shut doors and windows and limit my time outside the home to a minimum.
