This is the third story in a span of over two weeks where an immigrant has died violently. The latest killing took place in Oulu, where a Somali national fell off the sixth floor trying to escape three Finns that barged into his home. According to tabloid Ilta-Sanomat, a twenty-four-year-old Finn entered a pizzeria in Oulu and shot dead an immigrant worker and injured another one after taking his life.
The injured man, 42, is the former owner of the pizzeria.
The two men that were shot at by the Finn are from Morocco, according to MTV3.
The police said that they are not ruling out the possibility of a hate crime.
Where are the politicians and why aren’t they condemning what has happened? One politician in particular, Perussuomalaiset (PS) party MP Olli Immonen, could say something after basing most of his political ideology on Islamophobia.
Immonen, who is from Oulu, has warned Finns about a “race war” between white Europeans and Muslims.
What a tragedy!! A human life is worthless again. Whoever’s life. Life matter. For some it doesn’t. People who play this irresponsibility game draw upon the worse people can think off: Superiority, waste-thinking, people as expendable. Kauhajoki, Oslo, London where-ever.
Shame on all those Finns who think this is alright!! Under the white shirt there is a lot of black support.
Stop this!!
According to IltaSanomat, this gunman killed a friend of his in 2006 with an axe, in a dispute over stolen alcohol. Why do they let these creeps loose so soon?
This man is a Finn!!
Hommaforum gang and jussi hallaho gang are getting active. It seem like attacking foreigners is getting everyday life in finland. I was expecting these kind of incidents to take place , considering the atmostphere taking place in finland. It’s getting a real scary for us immigrants here in finland. I wonder after these incidents,do i dare to go to public.
Depressed 4 Reason,
I understand your fear. But I hope you realise this man is a problem for anyone living in the same area as him. He killed a (white) friend using an axe and has been known to commit aggressive acts without warning. These people are a big problem for anyone in Finnish society. How could we make Finland safe from men like this???
Joku, the suspect is not well. However, this is the THIRD death of an immigrant in just over two weeks. We on Migrant Tales condemn violence against immigrants by Finns and by immigrants against Finns.
Migrant Tales, yes I agree.
I understand that anyone who strongly identifies as “an immigrant in Finland” could feel that there is a killer rampage aimed against them right now.
I’m not trying to play down their concerns. I’m trying to say that in this case even if there was no racism anywhere in this world this particular criminal would probably have killed someone just happening in their way -old, young, black, white, friend, stranger. Evil, evil creature.
This is not meant to say that there is no reason to report this or no reason to be afraid. I’m just trying maybe say that we are all under this threat, an aggressive society. No group is alone, we should all be together to condemn this social ill.
joku: . I’m just trying maybe say that we are all under this threat, an aggressive society. No group is alone, we should all be together to condemn this social ill.
Or maybe some racist hommaforum gangbangers decided to ethnic cleanse in finland. Atleast thats what they scheme in their paltalks.
Depressed4Reason,
One reason why not all Finns publicly condemn hommaforum people may be because we are ashamed there are some people like that, individuals who are such stupid dangerous idiots.
The Finnish way to react to such things often is silence, hoping maybe if we don’t do anything this shameful group of Finns will go away. Silence does not mean agreement. And I agree it’s wrong! People should publicly say they condemn hommaforum activity!
I feel strongly we should look at the real underlying problems and not see everything as “Finns do this” or “foreigners do that”.
There is problem behaviour in every group of people. It’s not because of their nationality, it’s because we are all humans.
I think Enrique will again say I’m dangerously colorblind. But I really feel we should not always look at the color or nationality of people. I think that behaviour creates more problems. But that’s just my opinion.
eyeopener. Are you out of your mind? Coming here threatening people. Shame on you!!

who are statistically more violent, Finns or foreigners?
Hi Andy Johansson and welcome to our blog. So, after what happened in Oulu over the weekend, the best you can do is ask a dumb question: Who are statistically more violent, Finns or foreigners?
I caution you that this is no Hommaforum never mind Scripta or James Hirvisaari’s blog. Here we get serious and challenge urban tales and racism.
And if I may say, your comment in light of what has happened shows a lack of social grace and respect for others.
Please take a look at JusticeDemon’s threads on your question. We have answered your questions over and over again.

Back to the old statistical distortions and lies, eh? The same methodology that shows the only good bank manager in Finland is a foreigner, because 100 per cent of serious economic crime in Finland is committed by Finnish citizens. Oh yes, and then there are the statistics of the Royal Thai Police concerning Finnish kiddie fiddlers…
It’s all been done before, of course.
So you are back again, with an interesting choice of user name this time. Are we going to get more threats of violence?
The next 200 column inches are yours.
Andy johansson: who are statistically more violent, Finns or foreigners?
The answer is clear, finns are absolutely more violent than foreigners. Everyday i read the news paper, somebody killed somebody, a finn kill his wife, a finn kills his family, a friend, a dog, a taxidriver and on and on. But that doesnt mean all finn are bad, there just seem to be alittle bit too disturbed individuals in finland maybe becus lack of sunshine who knows.
But there are whide spread myth among finns that, immigrants are violent by nature and that they tend to be labeled as so, that’s ridiculous.
“The answer is clear, finns are absolutely more violent than foreigners. Everyday i read the news paper, somebody killed somebody, a finn kill his wife, a finn kills his family, a friend, a dog, a taxidriver and on and on.”
You lie. It is as simple as that. Your newspapers are not statistics. Stats can be found on the web from the official sources. Even considering the age and socioeconomic status, there’s a difference. Do your homework and stop spewing false information. You have a right to your opinition about the Finns but please don’t lie. Just say things like “I’m my opition” but don’t lie, that’s just ugly.
