Facing a massive surge in gang-related crimes, in particular involving the use of hand grenades, police in Sweden have introduced a three-month-long amnesty for "explosive goods." From this week until January 11, 2019, anyone in possession of explosives, which have not been used in criminal activity, can turn them over to the authorities without being detained.
"Anyone who contacts the police voluntarily during the amnesty will not be charged with illegal handling, and has the right to remain anonymous," the national police said in a statement.
While the public is urged to surrender the listed goods, which include hand grenades, gunpowder, igniters, and pyrotechnical items, they are asked to avoid driving to the police station to hand over the items. Out of public safety concerns, authorities insist that "police takes care of the explosive goods," after arranging their collection via a call center.
Comment: This article has an unstated, and ridiculous, assumption that people should be dating outside their own race and that dating within their own race is inherently racist. It's a bold claim, and the article fails to establish that "sexual racism" is even real. Is genetic mixing the ultimate goal here? If so, why? Or is it simply 'because racism bad' and 'we don't want people to have their feelings hurt', with no thought given to the implications. The science of why people are attracted to who they're attracted to is far from settled, so to begin trying to mess with that, to make people behave in a way they consider 'right', is pure folly. Here's a radical idea - leave people the hell alone and let them date who they want to date. Some people date outside their in-group, some don't. Neither of these options is wrong.
