Sweden: Action Against the Police
Featured image: In a suburb of Stockholm, a pig carcass was hung from a pole with a potato attached to its snout and a sign with the message “police police potato pig” on its body.
In Stockholm, Sweden, an action has been carried out against a “new-old” law that was enacted some months ago, which states that it is now illegal to insult a police officer, Kommunisten reports.
A pig carcass was erected on a pole with a potato in its mouth, drawing comparison to a common Swedish children’s rhyme: “polis, polis, potatisgris” [police, police, potato pig]. An example of a statement that could now get you arrested under this “new-old” law.
