Swedish city Gothenburg is building a camel park which it hopes will create jobs for migrants, but the plans have been slammed as racist and “absurd” by a charity boss.

The city hopes the camel centre being built in the migrant-dominated suburb of Angered will be able to provide jobs for foreign residents who are otherwise struggling to find a place in the country’s labour market.

“The largest source of income will be from tourism. There is a huge interest in camels both in Sweden and abroad. We expect tourists from around the world, including from Japan and China.

And Lena Salo, who backed giving funding to the centre, said: “I’m no expert on camels but I thought there was a basis. If this could lead to people getting a job, especially Somalis many of whom are very much outside the labour market, then I think it’s worth trying.”

The camel park is part of a wider project to create low-carbon jobs in the area, which was greenlit near the end of last year when the municipality was granted almost 13 million Swedish krona (£1 million) in funding from the EU.

“white ppl are recessive genetic defects. this is factual,” the post reads towards the end. “white ppl need white supremacy as a mechanism to protect their survival as a people because all they can do is produce themselves. black ppl simply through their dominant genes can literally wipe out the white race if we had the power to.”

Seems this isn't the first time Ms Khogali has tried to foment racial strife...

A man has died following a shooting in the Jane and Finch area Wednesday night. There's no information yet about suspects.

Here's how you do it...

"an apartment in city's west end."

VERY LAST WORD: Latest shootee id'd

Dameion McFarland, of Toronto, is the city's sixth murder victim of 2017

Uh-huh.

Angela Merkel's real legacy

The statistics, which come from the Bavarian police, show the number of non-German criminal suspects has increased over the past year from 46 to 48 per cent and the crime rate overall has risen six per cent in the city.

The report is the first time that asylum seekers have been recorded separately from other non-Germans and account for one in five non-German suspects or 8.6 per cent of total suspects, Merkur reports.

“In some regions from which asylum seekers are coming, it is acceptable to live off of drug trafficking”

Watch as media manufactures news

“He seemed weird,” said Desveaux, who admitted it was a superficial assessment since he had never really spoken to Bissonnette.

Oh, yeah... he "loved guns as a kid," says another busybody from 15 years ago.

Except it wasn't an actual gun, it was an air-fired pellet rifle, like me and every one of my friends had when we were kids. These a-holes should be ashamed of themselves.

Where was all the Sherlock Holmes type speculation when Gamil Gharbi and Michel Zehap Bibeau were murdering Canadians?

In Europe after the attacks where Muslims with provable connections to terror groups smashed into crowds with tractor trailers, the BBC headlines were merely about people "killed by trucks."

Remember, this is Canada...

...only native born white guys can be terrorists...

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau did call it a "despicable act of terror." Quebec provincial police are "treating the attack as a terrorist act," CBC News reports, but RCMP have only said that the suspect could "later face terrorism-related charges, depending on the outcome of the ongoing investigation."

All the evidence says Bissonette is a murderer... but don't let the narrative be bent to excuse Islamic terror.

The first thing we do...

...is kill all the lawyers...

Manitoba Tory MP James Bezan said Baker's request (Vince Li — who now goes by the name Will Baker) for a discharge should be denied and Bezan expects it will be.

"Will Baker, regardless of the name that he goes by, still beheaded and cannibalized Tim McLean."

But wait, it gets better...

The Supreme Court of Canada ruled in 1999 that a review board MUST ORDER an absolute discharge if a person doesn't pose a significant threat (apparently decapitation & cannibalism don't fall under this category) to public safety.

So... if Vince Li harms another person over the course of his lifetime... can we charge the Supreme Court Justices as accessories?

A 26-year-old man is in critical condition in hospital after he was shot at Yonge & Steeles, the third shooting in the GTA in 12 hours. The men demanded the keys to their car, a black 2008 Ford Focus.

Police say they then shot the man, assaulted the woman, and stole their car.

You're willing to murder someone for a Ford Focus? Seriously?

Yup... you are crazier than the proverbial shithouse mouse.
