Sweden: Leftist activist faces jail for trying to prevent deportation of criminal Muslim migrant

Oct 23, 2018 8:55 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Pro-immigration activist Elin Ersson could face up to six months in jail after disrupting a flight to prevent the deportation of a criminal Afghan asylum seeker, as prosecutors in Sweden said they have indicted the 21-year-old for breaking aviation laws.

The key word in that sentence is “criminal.” Ersson and her social justice warrior ilk are accomplices to Islamic supremacists and jihadists who harm innocent people in the West. She nonsensically insists that “to send someone there is in practice sending someone to their death. As someone who is against the death penalty, it is only right to stand up for those who are faced with being deported to a land in war.” Little wonder that Sweden has become the mess that it has. The indictment of Ersson shows that there is some hope.

Ersson prioritizes the life of perpetrators over the life of innocent people, as did others in another similar case:

A Somali man, whose deportation from Britain was stopped by around a dozen Social Justice Warrior passengers on a commercial flight to Turkey in a similar protest was a gang rapist who committed the crime alongside an individual who went on to become an ISIS jihadi in Syria.

“Swedish SJW Facing Jail After Blocking Deportation of Criminal Afghan,” by Virginia Hale, Breitbart, October 22, 2018:

Pro-immigration activist Elin Ersson could face up to six months in jail after disrupting a flight to prevent the deportation of a criminal Afghan asylum seeker, as prosecutors in Sweden said they have indicted the 21-year-old for breaking aviation laws.

The student was hailed as a heroine by the liberal international media in July when she single-handedly blocked the Afghan’s deportation flight from Gothenburg to Turkey, livestreaming her protest to Facebook.

Prosecutors said Ersson had refused to comply with requests from the Turkish Airlines captain during her stand, footage from which shows concerned cabin crew attempt to reason with the self-proclaimed activist, as she tearily claimed that sending a person to Afghanistan amounted to condemning that individual to death.

Having booked a seat on the July 23 flight with the intention to disrupt deportation proceedings, Ersson refused to sit down unless the 50-year-old Afghan, who Swedish police have confirmed received a prison sentence for assault, was removed from the aeroplane.

Despite facing a fine and up to six months’ jail time, the campaigner insists she did nothing wrong, stating: “To send someone there is in practice sending someone to their death.”

“As someone who is against the death penalty, it is only right to stand up for those who are faced with being deported to a land in war,” she told The New York Times in an email….

    If Elin is convicted, we’ll see whether her views change once she has completed her sentence. Part of the problem is that the Left doesn’t pay for anything itself. They inherited their freedom. Social programs are paid with by someone else’s money. The Left is not used to paying the consequences of their actions.

      I am very glad she finally got convicted. What a stupid girl. She has no life experience but claims to know better than anybody else. Those people have to be punished every time they violate law so their supporters also get the lesson. Hope your government doesn’t give in but stays consequent.

      Sweden’s women prisons are not punitive and, by American prison standards, are luxurious and safe. If convicted, she will learn nothing there from prison workers who are like-minded. There is even a possibility that she would exit as a new Muslima.

    • lisalles says

      Not only should she pay for her crime in prison, but she should pay for the cost of interrupting the flight. The airlines should sue for the cost of the disruption of the plane, fuel, wages, etc. If she does not have the money, she should do extra jail time instead.

      I do not think that is the root of this problem at all. Ignorance is. Also, people of her age have this adrenal urge to Prove themselves…both male and female. And Social Justice is something to fight for….but she is on the wrong side of real Social Justice, which means safety, equality and fairness for the public. What she is confused about is that her views put social Justice for all, in complete danger. Its the Fad today. Its the fashion….its the shallow education we are getting all in a rush rush rush. Plus fake news and explanations from everywhere including Globalists. People have to be Taught to think for themselves and check and re-check. But its dangerous for the status quo to teach people to THINK.

      These people are so self righteous they never think about the victims only about their own sanctimony. If the asylum seekers are so worried about being sent back they should not commit the grievous crimes that they do. There was as similar event that occurred in UK recently. It achieves nothing as the criminal is sent on another flight, but they ( the demonstrators) get the warm fuzzy feeling of having justified their existence

      • BC says

        Oct 24, 2018 at 8:09 am

        Forgot to add. It seems in the eyes of the leftist do gooder, the asylum seeker have all the rights but no responsibilities or obligations

    Elin Ersson has not studied Islam’s ESSENTIAL DOCTRINES (essential for Islamic salvation), and yet, preposterously, she presents herself as an instant EXPERT on Islamic terrorism.

    JIHAD and HEGIRA (Islamic victory through conquest and migration) are ESSENTIAL DOCTRINES that all Muslims must both BELIEVE and PRACTICE or they will be EXCLUDED from Islamic paradise.

    AL WALAA WAL BARAA (loving Muslims and HATING the disbelievers) are ESSENTIAL DOCTRINES that all Muslims must both BELIEVE and PRACTICE or they will be EXCLUDED from Islamic paradise.

    Elin Ersson does not understand that ALL MUSLIMS are involved in JIHAD is some way or they have LEFT ISLAM. The PURPOSE of jihad is the SUBJUGATION of KAFIRS like Elin Ersson UNDER discriminatory SHARIA LAW.

    The PURPOSE of Sharia law is to REMOVE the human rights and civil liberties of WOMEN and disbelieving KAFIRS.

    Elin Ersson does not know that.

      Ignorance is no excuse for the law. She should pay for the crime and the expenses her crime cost.

    • JM says

      Oct 24, 2018 at 7:06 am

      Excellent post. True. The central tenet of Islam is indeed Al WALAA WAL BARAA – to love for the sake of Allah and hate for the sake of Allah. Just as Christians are commanded to love their enemies and do good to them, Muslims are commanded to hate all non-Muslims and to kill them whenever possible. Islam is a hateful ideology.

    Bye-bye, little bimbo! Time for you to leave your comfortable little bubble for a while.

    I’m sure your clueless, virtue-signalling, Islam-friendly comrades will get along just fine in your absence. They’ll carry on as before, convinced of their own righteousness, never learning anything, because they’re certain they already know it all. Just like you — you traitorous, brainless little fool.

  7. Marina says

    Why was’t she kicked out of the plane and arrested the first time when she refused to sit. And the disruptive passengers of the Turkish airlines should have been arrested and kicked out too.

    Yes jail her so she can become a martyr of the political correct. Or sentence her to do community service work in a no go zone. The latter would inspire her more.

    • James Lincoln says

      Send her to the worst part of Muslim Malmo for 3 months of work day trips in no go zones – alone dressed as she is.

    Who is to blame for this? The “educators” who are brainwashing these kids? The “parents” who are allowing their own children to become this way as a result of the brainwashing received by the “educators”? The media? Politicians?

    All of the above to blame?

    Jail time is very appropriate. These self-righteous, self-appointedly morally superior, self-sanctimonious, naieve, ignorant, underdeveloped, hormonal, obnoxious, monumentally foolish SJW people need to realize that their opinions are just that: OPINIONS. Everybody has them, and having one does not make you special.

    Sit down, shut your mouth, and mind your own business.

    NOTICE something VERY interesting which no one has picked up on. She booked the flight knowing beforehand about the deportee.

    Who tipped her off?!!!!!!!

    Riddle me that.

    Second irony – the Somali who got ‘saved’ by virtue signallers on a flight leaving the UK…

    ..both Turkish Airline flights.

    She will get convicted. Not because the Swedish government has turned around, realizing that a stricter asylum policy is now a necessity. But because they realize that if they don’t put an immediate stop to this practice of sabotaging deportations, they will lose any semblance of having even minor control. Since they can actually stop persons like Ersson, they will do so, just to send out an illusion of being in control. That Ersson’s outlook probably is more or less the same as the liberal outlook of the Swedish system do not count – collateral damage. She’s going down folks, but don’t get your hopes up: Sweden will remain clueless.

    I saw the whole thin on the TV. The people on that plane behaved appalling, but the strange thing was that a whole big group around mrs, do good and the deportee, were protesting. The rest of the people did not protest or you could not see them, but why didn’t they charge her, because it costs them a lot of money nowadays to start later. But you can be bold and really couragious if you now that all your fines will be paid and the leftists will make sure that she will have “a very nice time in jail”.

    May be Elin, little girl, you get the Nobel Peaceprice next year, but when the guy was aloud to stay in Sweden. Take him home and take care of him.!!! Then you really do something so “beautiful “for him,
    and all the people will “love” and you will almost be like a martyr. Have, you noticed that the non muslims
    are almost starting to behave like muslims, they want so bad to be the good doers, or martyrs. Gives us something to think about.
    But how now further, then everybody gets insane and the whites too, but it just was mentioned that ‘BEING WHITE IS O.K.”, and the Next day it was changed already, ” being white is not o.k..

    Being white, purple, black blue and yellow is all ok., but being killers, and being violent and rape, and behead that is not ok, not now, not ever, and the so called people who want the muslims to behave as people, fine, go all back with them to their own countries and try it there together, but leave us here in peace in our own countries, and that is what you should do. Deport them all back to their own countries and help them and yourselves to become normal and human !!!

    Maybe the wanton wench lusts for a Moslem baby in her belly. Some dames lust to be taken by a dominant male and be forced to serve her master. Refer to that Fifty Shades of Gray stuff or search the Web. There are gals who want to be “taken” and this idiot dame may simply be one of those gals who would thrive under Islamic rule.

      What a lot of tosh. These are the kind of sick fantasies about women that Muslims have.

      And clearly you have never read that book–it is not about a rapist as you appear to believe.

    Sweden will jail her because she is a Swedish national. If she were an Afghani rapist, she would be free to go on her merry way. Swedes keep voting for this kind of treatment.
