Sweden doesn't worth my money in general. Plus they have so many refugees. I don't want to be killed by some of them shouting "Allahu akbar" or some shit like that.

I thought about going to Sweden to watch it live, although I would have preferred to go to Italy. Unfortunately, I'm broke right now so I'm not going to get tickets. However, I might go backpacking in Europe and either watch it on TV or stream it on the way. Although, I might still stop in Sweden and get some authentic Ikea furniture. I'm not sure.

You're racist yet you're irritated that Måns said something while drunk?

I am racist? It happened in France yesterday. Check out your news. The world isn't only bees and butterflies.

And while we're on the topic about migrants in Sweden and Eurovision, which is a big gay event, let's see how muslim migrants in Sweden actually react to gay visuals.

Regarding the terrorist attacs: Of course there will be some respect while going into the arena. But I would also have this respect in a country with almost no refugees.

But I think there will be hard controls in front of the arena (the controls in Vienna were very hard, too - and Vienna was before the terror in Paris) and not going would definitly be the false sign. And in the moment the Eurovision anthem starts, I won´t worry about a possible attack for sure :-)

Btw (maybe interesting for those who are going): Venues of Village, Euroclub and Opening ceremony have been revealed:

That videoclip is 5,5 years old. And the people protesting are Swedes, not muslim migrants. And it's LARS VILKS holding this conference, that says it all.

Lars Vilks says that he wants to fight for freedom of Speach and that he wants to fight religious fundamentalism. But at the same time he join the organization "Stop Islamization of Nations" (SION), a totalitarian organization that doesn't want freedom of Speach other than for themselves. Anyone see the double standard here? :twisted:

[MENTION=14584]niko[/MENTION] There is no community ever whole black or white. There are good and bad christians, there are good and bad atheists and of course there are good and bad muslims. Just because some of them did something bad doesn't mean all of them have to be that way. Would you accept if I accused Bulgarians being senseless just based on a couple of Bulgarians I met such as you?

Some common sense, please.

I guess both ESC and the Euro 2016 in

will be heavily guarded with huge security following the events of Paris last year.

I´m not that afraid as I would be for two reasons:

1. Since

is in the competition, I guess the terrorists don´t even dare attack since they know what Putin can do when they target someone from his country. (Note, I don´t like Putin either)

2. If they really would have target ESC, they would already have launched an attack on it (remember Baku 2012 when it was a threat going on)

That´s MY thoughts.

I'd love to believe you but I don't think they care as much about that as we would. I mean there was an article on one of the Irish media sites today about a Daesh member executing his own mother cos she tried to talk him out of being in Daesh. I don't think they'd worry too much about hurting a Russian civilian. Although attacking something like Eurovision would be a stupid move because there's a much much greater risk of killing people from multiple nationalities. If Eurovision is attacked by Daesh then there surely will be a united European/Russian/Australian/Chinese move against them. And as for your Baku point, Daesh weren't really the threat they are today back in 2012.

Political

It is remarkable how much hate Lars Vilks has been able stir up against himself. He's an artist and is obviously trolling hard with his own life, making it into some sort of an installation. Judging from when he met Åsa Linderborg (see Aftonbladet Hånet mot det fria ordet) he's not really into politics or religion and eventually he's just wasting tax money. His grande finale must be when he'll be assassinated by some poor pawned ignorant islamist fanatic.

And what does France have to do with Stockholm? Stockholm is like the most gay city there is in Europe or maybe even the world. Yes, we have immigrants, but I know tons of immigrants who are accepting of the LGBTQ lifestyle. Today in about 90% of Sweden (including Malmö) you can't go into a café or a bar or a restaurant and talk loudly about how gay's shouldn't be allowed to get married, how being LGBTQ is disgusting etc. without people heavily reacting towards it. I know many refugee's who are accepting of the LGBTQ-life style. I know many who aren't aswell, but they're not really worth my time and they are not trying to kill me with a sword or a bomb.

You are very spot on, I don´t think they want almost the whole world going into war with them at the same time.

If Putin really wants to get rid of IS, than they are pretty much doomed.

So - this Monday there will be a second chance to buy tickets. I will try again - but seeing how it all went the first time, I dont have high hopes...
Fingers crossed though!

Good luck

I´ll also try to get tickets

CPV4931 · February 25, 2016

Good luck to everyone trying :-) Would be great to see some of you in Stockholm.

Arv · February 25, 2016

I will also try but I'm not expecting anything really. It's just annoying to keep hoping.... At least I got tickets for SF 2.

Pawhlen · February 28, 2016

I will try to get tickets for the final on 14th May but since the system is very instable, it will just come down to pure luck, I hope that luck is on my side tomorrow

Helloworld · February 29, 2016

Does anyone know roughly how much the final tickets are?
