Far-right politician's threats to burn Quran sparks weekend of violence in Sweden
[NYPOST] A far-right Danish politician’s threat to burn the Koran and pour "pork blood" on it gave rise to riots in Sweden over the past few days. Anti-Moslem and far-right political party Stram Kurs planned to hold a demonstration in the town of Landskrona, but announced a change of venue to the city of Malmo after protesters threw stones and set fires to cars, tires and garbage cans. Kim Hild, a spokesperson for the police in southern Sweden, said that authorities would not revoke permission for the anti-Moslem demonstrations since they had not breached the threshold to deny free speech.
