Finland Tells its Female Citizens to Avoid Rapist Immigrants by Using "The Force"

The world looked on, horrified, as headlines emerged after New Year’s that Middle Eastern immigrants in Germany were responsible for the sexual assault and rape of hundreds of German women. Instead of the proper backlash, many European communities have responded like this, telling their residents they won’t be harassed or raped if they just simply stay away from violent immigrants.

That’s the take from police in Finland, who released a strange video teaching women that they can avoid rapists by using “The Force.” The video quite literally encourages women to try to use an invisible, non-existent energy to ensure their own physical safety. Sadly, this is not a joke.

Some have been quick to remind us that Finland does not permit its citizens to purchase firearms for reasons of self-defense. If the US had the kind of immigration Finland does right now, maybe things would play out a little differently.

@PamelaGeller If they try that here in the U.S., some gun-toting female will gladly put a hole in their head.
