RE: Stovner high school in Norway begs police for help. "We can no longer provide safety for the students"
I remember back in the late 1980s that it was impossible for people coming from North America to get permits to stay in Norway for work etc... . I encountered a lot of Middle Eastern immigrants at that time, but they were good people, from good back grounds and highly educated professionals. It breaks my heart to hear about this. Norway is (or was?) such a beautiful country.
We're doing OK compared to sweden, netherlands, belgum, britain, germany, france etc. People here seem to have some of their sense left.
It is still hard for americans to get permit here. Its absurd. I have an american friend with a phd, who had to struggle like hell to stay here, even if he is married to a norwegian AND has kids LIVING HERE with norwegian citizenship.
Same with some hungarian friends who are highly educated.
Our politicians make it hard for them to stay, but easy for anyone from third world countries. Its so strange, and it makes you almost think they have a sick agenda. I dont like to put on the tinfoilhat, but their absurd rules and decisions are just too strange sometimes.
Easy for welfare immigrants. Hard for working immigrants.
