Quotable Tony Halme, Finnish parliament's new great hope Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Sorry about another Finnish election thread, Ming, but you'll probably accept this - I want the lowly state of Finnish nation to get seen more widely.

Yes, Tony Halme. We've spoken quite a lot about him in the Finnish election thread. He got 15,000 votes in Helsinki area, which is quite, quite a lot - and gives him a seat in the parliament. Tony published a book 'bout two years ago. Here are some statements from the book. I've translated them myself. No, I don't own the book - I got them off Muro. I've leafed through the book, though - they're authentic. And they're only the tip of the iceberg.

quote:
...shouldn't we find work for all Finns before we start getting all kinds of Negroes and Hottentots here?


quote:
...Now the Somali whelps yap in newspapers about how they're the toughest gang in Helsinki. This country's growing youth should have enough willpower to show them whose the master in the house. Tone a bit down with the glue-sniffing and put the place in order so grandmas dare to move about the railway station...


quote:
...I sat one day in street cafe in Esplanadi in some nice company. Then Abu-Bapu and his pal Bingo-Bango walked right there from their daily nap. They fetched couple a chairs and went right in to talk with these two Finnish girls, no matter how they said no. ..."I don't know what's the sitting order around your camel shit campfire, but here in Finland we don't call each other names or come to tables without permission. Get back to the railway station. I bet you work for the State Railroads since you hang there all day?..."


quote:
...At this place I threw him off the terrance and he flew in a curve and landed on his ass. He had a mobile telephone in his hand before he landed and he started his godawful babbling right away...


quote:
...The truth is that kind of a Mauri Mopo (note: A lightweight boxer who Tony described as "He had faggy curls on his shoulders and only marks on his face were pimples") wouldn't even be in Finnish porn mag Kalle's gay pages if it weren't for me raising the profile of this sport...


quote:
...When I become a MP I'll put this country in order. I'll go personally to every goddamn office to see what they're doing or if they're doing anything at all. Sleeping, coffee drinking, shit talking and asspicking will end right there...


quote:
...I here and now promise to pay the gasoline to every Lada used to drive the Finnish commie traitors hell away from here with a red cap on their heads... Balalaika on their ass and right on the eastern border...


(Note that Tony's referring to preferred Finnish fascist tactic of the thirties, driving commies and comsymps to the eastern border and roughing them a bit along the way.)

quote:
...I've been watching so many doors I can do it in the parliament, too. I'll go to sit beside the door before the meeting and see that only honest and patriotic Finland-born citizens get in like the Constitution says...


In other words, be afraid. Be very very afraid...

To be serious for a while, I'm appalled that this turdburglar got into the parliament.

I hope like hell that he makes a fool out of himself and thus ensures that he won't be elected again.

Andemagne, "negroes and hottentots" are Finns too. I don't like commies either, but deporting people (to a non-commie country at that) for being commies is idiotic.

Tony's certainly off to a good start - he's already called the President a lesbian.

I didn't mention that Tony's got a SS lightning tattoo and another near his arse reading "EXIT ONLY", did I?

Stefu, Well he has denied that those lightnings are SS tattoo. In his book he says he got in trouble with gang co-ordinators who thought he belong to Arayans. So, if you don't have any facts on it, please don't say it's a fact. I have those same lightinings in my army insignia, and they sure as hell don't have anything to do with SS.

I think he is racist, but I doubt he is a nazi. I VERY much doubt it. Also he has some good ideas and views too, but he is a bit racist too, so it stains his career very much. I don't like him too much, but thinking he is a dangerous nazi who will start some kind of bizarre agenda of his own is way off.

By no means am I defending this guy. I'm just saying we make him sound a lot worse than he actually is. He is not dangerous in real life, except if you pick up a fight with him, but other than that.. pretty harmless. And no, don't bring your 'Hitler was harmless at first too', because this guy is well known. But racists? I think so yes.

Idiots, by definition, have an IQ of under 80, at least in here.

Halme has been in a tabloid-controlled (don't get me wrong, it was completely valid test, it wasn't the worst tabloid on the market which made it) IQ-test. He scored 121. He's not an idiot. He just doesn't know a **** about political work.

quote:
A racist, nationalist, anti-communist. He is a Nazi.

He's against goverment control, so I must disagree, he's not a nazi, or at least by the definition what I'm using of National Socialists.

Halme is a guy with lots of talk and no walk. When we combine this with the fact that he's never in his life been participiating in politics, and knows nothing of them, we can safely say that he'll be a completely useless nuisance, filled with lots of anti-immigrant and (mainly) anti-homosexual rhetorics.

Still, he got ovet 16 500 votes in Helsinki. If you would know the way the general elections are held in here, you would realise that it's a ****load of votes. Erkki Tuomioja, for example, scored below 9 000.


EDIT:

Pretty good overview at the whole situation we're facing here.

Yes, he scored pretty well, also he speaks 4 or 5 languages? He has made lots of money with his mouth and is performer.

He is definitely NOT a nazi. He is a racist, but NOT a nazi. I think we know him better, and I'm sure he does not idolize Hitler or would like to be thought as nazi.

Racist, nationalist, anti-commie.. hmm.. this would fit very many types. This alone does not make anyone nazi. And as nationalist, he wouldn't be even called patriot in the US. Our right is not even your left. Americans would call him more patriot than nationalist, plus are there lots of pro-commies? But he is a racist, not very open 100%, but some racism is there. But if these are enough to make someone nazi, well then there are millions of nazis in this world. But I admit, he looks like one .

And he is not stupid.. he is rather intelligent. He looks like he would be stupid. He has some colourful statements, but they are mostly about other things, things that we all hate and he wants to make them better, like criminals getting away too easy, drugs off the streets etc. His way to talk is provoking to many, but it's the way he speaks. But no, I don't think he will make a good politician. BUt there are many misconceptions here that I felt needed to be straightened out.

Maybe not, but he would still be called as both nazi and a racist moron.

He seems to like that - being in the centre of attention, that is.

quote:

"If I can't see crime, crime doesn't exist" - works great on the standard mob.

quote:
His way to talk is provoking to many, but it's the way he speaks.

Pretty charismatic in interviews, usually, when using such lots of generally quite witty insults towards liberals - usually it works pretty well on the general Finnish audience, but sometimes it goes over the top - in fact, so much, that it isn't funny anymore, it's just oxymoron. Also, sometimes he's mildly drunk during interviews and goes a bit more over the top. Great entertainment, however.

I agree with you. I still don't think he truly is a nazi. He might be called one, but I think he is just racist. That's not positive either.

He is relatively intelligent as compared to stupid. He did ok, better than average person in that test. That doesn't make him wise or good politician or that his views are correct. Just that he is not that stupid. By this I don't mean his views naturally. They don't seem to be very intelligent .

I don't agree with your view that he drives for 'if you can't see... ' etc. He said he'd like to go after tough criminals. Drug dealers etc, give them tough punishments. I didn't hear anything about punishing users and small time people. And he said that after that is being taken care of, the streets will be safer too.
That's my own interpretation of it though, so I don't know what he really meant.
Ok, I stop here because I don't want to sound like I actually support this guy

Hm. Aamulehti (Finnish newspaper, not one of those tabloid kinds) tells that Halme insulted the President, Halonen, in a radio interview yesterday. She won't be pressing charges on slander, however. There is nothing official on what exactly Halme said in that interview, but some say that he, uhm, questioned the sexual preference of the President.
