What is your point? Do you think I'm somehow ignorant of what the EU means? I know about the free movement of people - I reject it since it has negative consequences for me! For some reason you are unwilling to come right out and simply say

Certainly. Foreign criminals are deported all the time.

I am 100% confident that deporting all foreign beggars in Sweden will solve the problem of foreign beggars in Sweden. I don't really care if this doesn't get to the "bottom of the problem" or whatever. I (or the Swedish people in general) s

The situation is similar in Sweden, but I have thankfully not heard of anyone disfiguring someone else for these purposes. Yet. One of the glorious benefits of being a member of the EU is that we now have to put up with organized gangs of b

The analogy is good, but there are parts of Afrikaans which are more complex than Dutch. Conjugating an adjective or negating a sentence, for instance. Are there parallels in CoffeeScript?

Middle Dutch also had the double negative (en/niet).

I've used Klarna once or twice when shopping online. The basic concept doesn't require a lot of details, I should think: You buy something, Klarna sends you an invoice, you pay it just like any other invoice. I assume failure to pay is hand

Self-checkouts don't have to suck, though. The version where you scan all your items at a single location is clearly crap, but there are systems where you get a small hand-held device when entering the store so you can scan your items as yo

Surely the U differs. To Sweden-Swedish ears at least, Linus in Finnish sounds like Linos.

Linus is a native speaker of Swedish, not Finnish.
