Riots in Sweden’s Malmo after another Quran burning

Riots erupted in the Sweden’s third largest city, Malmo, on Sunday night, after anti-Islam activist Salwan Momika set fire to the Quran once again on Sunday, and police detained several people that tried to stop him.

Police said the riots saw protesters pelting rocks and setting cars and debris on fire.

In a series of anti-Islam demonstrations, mostly in Stockholm, Momika has desecrated the Quran, which has caused anger in many Muslim countries and communities, while Swedish authorities have allowed his actions, citing freedom of speech.

Denmark, which also saw desecration of the Quran in various recent protests, announced last week that it is planning to criminalise the improper treatment of the Quran and Bible, punishable by a fine and a jail sentence of up to two years.

Why pick on Muslims? I know the Arabs to be the most kind and gentle and most helpful of souls with hearts of gold. I was alone in hospital one day, screaming out in the most agonising pain. A young Arab guy felt so sorry for me & looked genuinely concerned for me. Nobody else was there for me. This is just one example. May God bless him. He was a total stranger who felt my pain. If only everyone everywhere could be like him and others from their communities. They are good people. Their kindness is genuine.

All they want is to achieve some trivial political achievement. By reacting this aggressive you give them exactly that. Ignore them and their flame will go out by itself.

I cannot believe these people would be so disrespectful to burn a Quran. And no, I’m not Muslim.

If you say that burning Quran is freedom you should allow people burn cars and homes freely then it is also freedom in your logic😉
