Is this a demonstration of how diversity makes us strong?
[Warning: Graphic]
Swedish outlet Riks says the migrant who threw the Swedish man to the ground is in his 30s and police are investigating the incident. Apparently there was a large group event happening in the city of Uddevalla where teams had to race around the city and compete in different min-challenges. One of the challenges was a dance competition in Kungstorget Square.
However, the pro-Palestine protesters, most of them migrants from the Muslim world by the looks of it, had taken over the square, so the participants in the event stayed off to the side.
At some point, the mostly peaceful Palestinian protesters got upset that they were in pictures that the Swedes were taking during the event, and this led to a confrontation whereby the protesters decided to get mostly peaceful.
...the police now have the right to act, said Martin Petterson (SD), chairman of the municipal board in Uddevalla to Riks.
'This is awful. You can't hide behind the right to demonstrate when it comes to a premeditated violent crime. Uddevalla municipality will, in the future, advise the police to refuse demonstrations of this kind at Kungstorget,' he continued.
The 20-something man who was thrown sustained a severe concussion and is expected to be hospitalized for several days.
