Denmark Considers Seizing Valuables From Migrants

Even if you are opposed to immigration, this is just wrong. Plus it will make them even more dependent on state social services since they won't have any resources to take care of themselves costing even more taxpayer money.

Denmark’s government has secured cross-party backing for a plan to seize cash and valuables from asylum seekers to help meet the cost of their stay, highlighting how mistrust toward migrants is growing across Europe.

The Danish minority government, which relies on support from an anti-immigrant party in parliament, said it would seek lawmakers’ approval on Jan. 26 and hopes to put the plan in place by the start of February.

Under the seizure plan, Danish police would be given the power to take cash and valuables valued at more than 10,000 kroner ($1,450), although items of special personal value, such as wedding rings or family portraits, would be exempt.

Outlining the plan, Danish Immigration Minister Inger Stojberg said: “In Denmark, you should support yourself if you can.”

During a debate in Parliament on Wednesday, opposition lawmaker Johanne Schmidt-Nielsen, of the Red Green Alliance, said the plan provided no remedy to the migrant crisis.

This rule would make it harder to support themselves.

Yeah, that'll convince them to behave themselves.

Denmark's new plan to deter migrants: Seize their valuables

While noting the rules would be no different from those that apply to Danes receiving welfare benefits, government officials are candid about the purpose: persuading migrants to go somewhere else.

I had no idea.

I wonder if the thought of just not giving any welfare ever enters the European mind?

^^^ This. It is why refugees dont stay in muslim countries. Those 2 million refugees in Turkey, most of them probably waiting for their chance to go to Europe because Turkey doesn't have free $#@! .

Can't do that... The EU constitution, I mean, Lisbon treaty that nobody wanted but we still got says that;

People have a right to a house, healthcare, education.. Also in there is the right to die when a government decides to end a demonstration of some kind. Real fine document. They pretty much took the US constitution and said; Yeah, this is what we DON'T want in it.

So no, among people who matter in this regard, they haven't considered this for a second. Their brains don't operate like that. All they care about is their EUSSR project. They will do pretty much anything to save their project. I wouldn't be amazed if this refugee crisis is the final nail in the coffin for the EU. That doesn't mean the people who are in power now will allow that to happen. I wouldn't be amazed if there were some false flag terror attacks to make sure the people at large don't change their mind on the EU.

Actually it is a quite brilliant move by the Danes, and will undoubtedly save them millions over the long run. The message Denmark sent to the rest of the world this past week was, "Come here and we will seize your property and shove pork down your throat." Sending out a message of hostility is vital in the current crisis. Migrants will avoid Denmark, which will only put more pressure on Germany and Sweden, and the more pressure on Germany and Sweden, the sooner the nationalist parties will be able to topple the World Socialists and end this madness altogether.

Nobody is opposed to immigration.And the articles explain that means that the rules for the immigrants are the same as the rules for the native born - it's basically an asset test. Cry me a river.

Reread the title of the thread, then reread my post.

Keep doing this until you recognize your error.

[seapilot]

No longer considering, it passed and is now law.

http://www.wdsu.com/national/denmark...-bill/37640094

They also passed this as well.

Lawmakers also voted to triple the period of time before asylum seekers can apply for separated family members to be reunited with them in Denmark.

That measure, which extends the period from one year to three, is expected to have an even greater deterrent effect on potential migrants.

"The aim is to make sure that (fewer) people come to Denmark, if it's hard to bring your family," Henriksen said.
