United States should boycot Sweden?

The rapper A$AP seems to have been unfairly treated by the police in Sweden. First the authorities send in a man to provoke the rapper and the rapper tries to talk the individual down. There is a video showing what took place and it is clear that the unknown person is the one who provoked the situation.

Of course Sweden can be tired of the US music culture.

It is difficult for parents in the Nordic countries to understand why stars do have to be associated with weapons and drugs to enter the music scene.

Fact is that most of the so-called stars would have entered prison for the rest of their lives if they were ordinary persons. Look at how many people who sit in prison in the United States serving time for non-violent crimes just because they took too many perscription pills or moved on to drugs once the medication they got legally did not lower their pain good enough anymore.

Where ordinary people in the United States ends up in prison, the stars protected by lawyers working for the media industry escape the same harsh punishment because they can sell music or movies.

It is not fair.

Nordic parents do not want that kind of music. Of course it is clear that this lifestyle on the edge also enables them to make better music. Look at a person like the musician Earl Sweatshirt. He no longer produce the lyrics, which made him famous, so he is a finished man in the music. His career is over because he did not travel the path towards short prison stints combined with alcohol and drugs. His mother destroyed his career because she sent him to rehab.

Drugs and alcohol sell when it is done connected to the entertainment industry. That is a fact.

So what properly took place is that the government of Sweden decided to put the foot down by framing A$AP just as the Danish police did with another musician Lil Pump. Lil Pump who represented the best the US industry can do was arrested in Copenhagen just because he was a foreigner. It is standard practise in Copenhagen to hit hard on tourists so they learn that they are not welcome. The Danish police beat up soccer fans from Malmoe good some years ago and tourists from Africa learned the hard way that the Danish jails had a special beating team which you can read more about on the website of Amnesty International.

In Sweden they are used cover things up. The murder of their former prime minister Oluf Palme is one case and the failed arrest of a fall-guy in the murder of Anna Lindh which was only prevent due to the existence of video-material is another.

There is no doubt that the Swedish authorities is now working hard to doctor the tapes of the assault on A$AP so they suit the story the Swedish police is inventing.

President Trump is right trying to intervene. The media industry needs to sell the message that a career in the entertainment industry is equal being connected to drugs, weapon and alcohol. It is a question about jobs in Hollywood and the unemployment rate in the United States.

Should tourists then stay away from Sweden?

Yes. By all means!

Do not travel to countries where people do not want you.

I can give an example.

Some years ago many Danish students traveled to Prague during the winter holidays acting just like they do in Denmark. In Denmark cars are sometime burned in the urban areas, the youth rob each other (In Denmark it is now illegal to pay larger amounts in cash, so the police can solve crimes quicker when the robbers demands a wire transfer from their victims using mobile pay.) and drinking alcohol is massive once they legally can buy alcohol with an alcohol percentage under the safe limit of 16.5.

But the authorities in the Czech republic did not allow the young Danes acting as custom is in Denmark, so instead of getting visited by like 10.000 people who put money in their stores almost none visit the countries anymore.

The message from the Czech republic was clear: We do not want tourists. The Danes listened and have avoided the country since 2016.

The message in Sweden where houses where immigrants live are put on fire seem clear. Please avoid Sweden if your skin-color is dark!

So listen like we did in the case of the Czech republic. Stay home!
