I heart this news article on the radio, where they told that Copenhagen is being controlled by gangs, and innocent bystanders are being shot down

Not exactly SR but a good shot anyway; now if you take a look at Italy with Berlusca that acts as something betwen a dictator and a corporate corrupt politician from SR, add the Lega Nord that acts like the Humanis Policlub and you can understand how dystopian things are becoming here.

and here i was tempted to think of christiania as a barrens (if shit ever really hits the fan), tho i guess its more correctly a free city (or wants to be)...

the "scary" thing is that barrens makes some level of sense. why bother trying to track down every wild child in the city when one can designate a area as a free for all, toss them in there, and let them run rampant?

cross the line and get blown away by high powered weapons, stay inside it and you can do whatever you like...

I'm still waiting for the Icelanders go go back to more traditional means of making a living... Even more traditional than fishing.
