I won’t say they’re the shite, necessarily, but your point stands. When everyone is about the same, there is little to argue over and no real thought of racial oppression because there isn’t anyone to really oppress. If you look at their demographics breakdown, it’s incredibly difficult to even find a figure or percentage for black Norwegians. And I don’t know a ton about their history, but my guess is their black population doesn’t have ties to slavery or civil rights struggles, so black Norwegians likely have a much different view of their place in the country. Bottom line, you can’t look at Norway’s police and make an honest comparison to the United States. But God knows I’m not starting that conversation on FB.

How do you think they got there? A thousand years ago Norwegians called black people "Blue People". They hardly enslaved them because they hardly ever saw them. They had to row out the Baltic, down the English Channel, around Spain and Portugal, then way the frick down the African coast. The few who did it found nothing to plunder. But when the Norwegians (mostly called Danes back then) discovered blue men they enslaved them.

I recall a black comedian commenting on the fighting in Ireland during the 1980’s.
He said something like,
“Catholics and Protestants are killing each other over there in Ireland. Shows you how creative white people can be when there are no Jews, blacks, browns, or Asians.”
