[from Bruce Bawer's While Europe Slept, page 39]: ". . . Dagbladet
front-paged an unusually frank statement by the head of Kripos, Norway's
FBI. To stop the appalling crime rate, he argued, changes were needed in
immigration policy in punishments for gang crime. Dagbladet noted an
earlier suggestion of his: that the police be given access to asylum
seekers' fingerprints. Apparently this was perceived as a racial proposal.
'You realize you may be seen now as someone who hates foreigners?'
Dagbladet asked him. 'Yes," he replied, 'and I have no problem with that.
Someone must dare to say it out loud.'
"That was in 2003. Those willing to 'say it out loud' are still few and far
between.
"Meanwhile the problems simply grow worse. In some urban areas of Europe,
all order has broken down. Young men roam the streets in packs and commit
crimes in the daylight, in front of scores of witnesses, without fear of
being stopped or punished. 'In many French cities with growing radical
Islamist population,' notes Sorbonne professor Guy Milliere, 'no teenage
girl can go out in the evening, at least not without a full burqa' -
otherwise she's admitting she's a whore and asking to be raped. Statistics
for the Dutch city of Amersfoort are probably representative of much of
Europe: the police have files on 21 percent of local Moroccan boys and 27
percent of Somali boys, and suspect that 40 percent of the Moroccans between
age fifteen and seventeen are involved in crime. In 2005, one Dutch
commentator, drawing on a news story about Moroccan gangs in Den Bosch, did
a little arithmetic and determined that 80 percent of Moroccan boys in the
city were 'involved in street violence.'"
