For Norwegians, Stovner is infamous. Located in Groruddalen, this was the big government/city project in the 70's where workers were supposed to live in affordable apartement complexes while Oslo grew larger. Naturally this was the area immigrants primarilly from Pakistan moved to when they came to Norway in the 80's. As immigration got larger, much larger - especially from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Africa - they naturally were accomodated in these cheap areas. The more immigrants the less ethnic norwegians. Even though mentioning this fact was considered racist up until recently - the fact is that this part of the city, and it's a BIG part of Oslo with over 100,000 inhabitants - has now OVER 50% immigrants - most from third world countries.
Now -we've been told how amazing multiculturalism is. So are they holding hands and singing cumbajahmalord?
Not exactly..
All ready in 2008-2009 some alarmists tried to put attention on the increasing violent behavior of school kids. Bullying of ethnical norwegians, and the reverse integration (ethnical norwegian kids integrated into immigrant cultures, and not the opposite)
Oslo has not experienced this on the same level as the big cities in Sweden. But we're getting there. Keep in mind that Norway is about half the size of Sweden. Sweden, with 11 million inhabitants has two big cities, while Norway only has one (Big is over 1 million people including suburbs)
Can't provide safety
Today, the principal at Stovner High School, Terje Wold aknowledegs that he can no longer provide safety for neither his teachers nor the students.
This information comes from an e-mail the principal has sent to the Oslo municipal administration.
"We have a situation at the school we can't live with any more. I am worried students and teachers will be hurt"
Last Wednesday there was a big fight and the police had to show up with 3 patrols. A few days before, a student was threatened with an axe.
Fights and bullying is everyday behavior in this school, and a growing number of schools.
We are finally reaping some of the seeds of forced multiculturalism that no one asked for.
