| Hey there, did you hear about DF using Natascha's song for their anti-headscarf campaign? It's outrageous. First of all, this campaign is more like a hetz. Secondly, I'm fairly certain that Natascha would NOT have approved them using her lyrics for this purpose. Grrr |

I know, it sickens me to read about those narrow minded unintelligent bastards. Im always willing to listen to different perspectives of an argument but ffs, these people are dangerous and amazing how many fall for their crap:0/
And as for the song...Yeah I dont think this is a song that was supposed to be open to interpretation. Totally political in your face. And that DF of all people dare use a line from it grrrrrrrrrrrr |

They couldn't take all the lyrics anyway, cos somehow the campaign doesn't fit 'giv os frisindet igen' or 'vi vil ha' ungeren igen'.
That campaign is just sooo wrong. Actually, I do see that headscarf-wearing women in a courtroom COULD be perceived as biased, but what's the deal with doctors and nurses? I don't give a f*ck what my doctor or nurse wear on their heads, as long as they know what they're doing :oS |

tehe cretainly doesnt. Mind ya, Id love if Pia or Peter visited 'Ungdomshuset' Im sure theyd be very welcome. They should just come to Nørrebro and learn a bit about different cultures before spouting their mouths off |

The problem is, they're like me. Well not completely, but they live in a neighbourhood full of white, well-established people. They have never ever tried being neighbours with people coming from different cultures.
Furthermore, they have a nasty tendency to think that all non-danes are a bunch of crooks, since the statistical probability of being mugged by a non-dane (or new danes or whatever you call them) is infinitesimal larger than being mugged by a dane.
I know we don't often see eye to eye about politics, but I think we can agree on this one. |

Nah theyre not like you. You use your brain and listen to other viewpoints. You might not agree but your hardly narrow minded. I think whats missing in so many people is basic empathy:0/ No one gives a shit anymore, every man for himself. Say goodbye to democracy and welcome to capatilistic Denmark. Just frustrating to see and experience a country that seems to be moving backwards. At least if we're to go the american way reduce the bloody taxes!
Have you seen that theres a train strike in Jutland? At least you dont use one to get home. That was pretty sudden |

Well thank you for thinking that I'm not narrow-minded :o) Then again, I don't really wanna be compared to Pia, Peter and co. My point was more the fact that neither of us grew up or lived in multi-ethnic communities.
About the trains, it's only Arriva that's on a strike. DSB is normal. In this area, it's mostly DSB. Arriva are out west in the Herning/Struer/Esbjerg/Tønder areas. Of course it's bad enough if you live in the western half of Jylland. Do we even know why they're on a strike? |

I get your point. I wasnt brought up in a multi-etnic community either.
Train drivers want a 10% pay rise and would be happy if the 'ledelsen' was fired |

| So they've jumped the strike bandwagon then? It's very sudden, I didn't even know that they weren't satisfied. Don't they usually threaten with a strike first? |
