Despite the rain today, around 40,000 people gathered in Youngstorget square in Oslo to sing the song "Barn av Regnbuen" (Children of the Rainbow), near the court building where Anders Behring Breivik is on trial for killing 77 people.

Folk singer Lillebjørn Nilsen, who released the song several decades ago, led the emotional sing along. During his court testimony, Breivik said that he hates the song, which extols the virtues of a multicultural society. He said that it was an example of how Norwegian schools act as an "indoctrination camp" for "cultural Marxism and multiculturalism".

The organisers of the protest said their aim was to show that Breivik had not broken their tolerant society.

It is well within the rights of anyone to make a complaint that they feel is worthy of discussion. What truly determines the conversational value of a topic is whether or not anyone responds to it. In essence, it is only my response (and future responses) that validate your words here projekty rodinnych domov. If no one reads and no one cares, then you might as well have been speaking to yourself.

This is quite a good article. Many new questions emerge to the surface, all you need do is to read further information about the issues. Only then one can form a final view on a particular subject. Otherwise everything is seen only in the dimension of how to cum more black and white. The natural logic of pr agentura evaluating things before catering they were properly cognitively processed is a horrible mistake, made by those less intelligent. People should not throw away their common ubytovanie na slovensku sense easily. Anything and everything deserves appropriate time for making judgements.
