Bill G here, hanging out in Jamsa, Finland.
You know, the Finns, even though isolated out here in Scandanavia, are just like us. First, of course, there was the Pekka Eric incident, which we Americans understand all too well. We have these “incidents” all the time.

Now comes a Finnish politician in a text message scandal, just like Kilpatrick.

Foreign Minister Ilkka Kanerva in trouble over text messages to erotic dancer

Finland’s foreign minister faced calls for his resignation on Saturday after a tabloid newspaper published a suggestive text message he had sent to an erotic dancer.

Ilkka Kanerva sent about 200 text messages to Johanna Tukiainen, 29, and at first said they were related to her performing at his 60th birthday party.

On Friday he admitted the messages were not totally appropriate. “I would not present them in Sunday School, but they are not totally out of line either,” the daily Helsingin Sanomat quoted him as saying. The Ilta-Sanomat daily said that in one of the messages Kanerva had asked Tukiainen: “Would you like to do it in an exotic place? Where could it be?”

Fellow parliamentarian Tuija Nurmi, also of the conservative party, has said Kanerva should resign, and opposition leader Eero Heinaluoma said the situation cannot continue as it is now.

Johanna Tukiainin, Finnish babe

Tukiainen, who has posed nude in magazines and is the leader of the Scandinavian Dolls erotic dance troupe, first sold the text messages to Hymy magazine, and then sought a court injunction to stop their publication. A Helsinki court rejected the request. The magazine said it would publish the messages in its next issue, due to be released on Wednesday.

Kanerva’s longstanding partner has said she has accepted his apology over the matter. This is not the first time Kanerva has been in trouble over his mobile phone use. In 2005, when he was the deputy speaker of parliament, he bombarded two models with text messages.

OK, so it’s not exactly on the level of an Eliot Spitzer drama, but hey, at least they’re trying!

The city of Nokia, Finland (home to cell phone company Nokia) is floundering in filthy drinking water after a municipal employee mistakenly sent thousands of gallons of sewage into the water supply.

Nokia has about 30,000 residents. In November 2007, a municipal employee unwittingly released thousands of gallons of sewage into the water supply. Over a month later authorities are still trying to clean it up. The contamination occurred when the employee turned a wrong valve at the city’s sewage treatment plant, a mistake that sent 400,000 liters (105,600 gallons) of only partially filtered waste water spewing down a pipe that feeds the city’s water supply.

The error wasn’t detected until several days later, after scores of Nokia residents had already come down with stomach ailments and influenza. When the contamination was discovered, bacteria counts “exceeded safe levels several-hundred-fold,” according to NewsRoom Finland. The leak in Nokia is the worst water contamination crisis in Finnish history.

Tests also detected a common but nasty form of stomach flu, the norovirus, in the city’s water supply last week. In addition to private residents, the contamination has impacted a local spa and brewery, both of which have been closed until the water supply is deemed potable.

The “Nokia Water Crisis” as they are calling it, is feared do damage the telecommunications giant’s international reputation.

People did the same in Lake Michigan.

Hey, could be worse! Could be Finland!

Let’s take a break for a moment from all this hosting nonsense (which is really bring us down) and try to lighten up the mood a bit by getting back to that little Finnish school shooting thing.

Apparently there are a few copycats in the wings:

Teenagers held in Sweden as fear of copycat killings grows

TWO Swedish teenagers, allegedly inspired by the school shooting in Finland, were arrested yesterday for conspiring to murder a school principal and a janitor. The boys, 16 and 17, were arrested in Stockholm after police received information that they were planning murder, Karin Solberg, a police spokeswoman said.

Rolf Oden, principal at the Enskede Gards Gymnasium, a secondary school in suburban Stockholm said: “There is a threat against me which … has been directed toward me personally, but I don’t want to get into it any more than that. These two boys are clearly inspired by the events in Finland.”

In Finland, meanwhile, hundreds of children panicked yesterday after an online threat claimed their school would be the next target.

Yesterday’s hoax, directed at a school in Kirkkonumm, about 45 miles from Tuusula (where Pekka-Eric went crazy), came as Finland’s government said it was planning to increase the age at which unsupervised gun use is allowed to 18.

Maarit Rossi, the principal of Kirkkoharju school in Kirkkonummi, said: “There was a threat on the internet.

“Someone posted a note with the username Sturmgeist (Pekka-Eric’s username), saying that the next target would be a Kirkkonummi Middle School.

Police said they regarded the threats aimed at Kirkkonummi as “a bad joke”.

Finland has previously resisted European Union plans to limit gun ownership to those 18 years or older, since Finns as young as 15 have had the right to own and use a gun alone.

Police detain fake ‘YouTube killer’ copycat

Police in Finland have detained a 16-year-old boy who posted a video called “Maaninka massacre” on the YouTube website. Police said yesterday the boy said his video was a joke. The boy, who lives in Maaninka, eastern Finland, was detained on Friday and his computer has been confiscated, it said in a statement. The video threat was against Maaninka school.

And in America:

Accused Montgomery County teen exchanged e-mails with murderer

Finnish police are sifting through Web sites for links between the teenager who plotted a Columbine-style assault in Montgomery County and Pekka-Eric Auvinen. The teenagers had communicated by e-mail, apparently out of a common interest in the Columbine school shootings and violent video games.

Plymouth Meeting resident Dillon Cossey, 14, had been trading e-mails with the Finn and “recognized the screen name and recalled having contact,” said J. David Farrell, who represents Cossey. Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce L. Castor Jr. is taking a second look at material on Cossey’s home computer. Cossey told Farrell that in the e-mails, Auvinen “gave no indication he was going to do anything violent,” and that Cossey “offered nothing in the way of encouragement.” He learned of the incident from his attorney.

Cossey and Auvinen shared an interest in a video game series called “Hitman,” Farrell said, adding that they may also have had a mutual obsession with Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the students responsible for the 1999 Columbine High School massacre. “Hitman,” which has reportedly sold more than 10 million copies, involves a genetically engineered, ruthless assassin known as Agent 47. A movie version is in the works.

Police seized the computer Oct. 10, along with a 9mm semiautomatic carbine, knives, live homemade grenades, BB guns, swords, violent videos, and a bomb-making manual. Cossey, a home-schooled student who admitted to his plans to attack Plymouth Whitemarsh High School, is awaiting a hearing to determine his treatment program, which could last until he turns 21. His parents took Cossey, an overweight youth, out of school because of incessant taunting and bullying.

“There appears to be a cadre of people who idolize Klebold and Harris from the Columbine massacre, of which Cossey was one, and perhaps the person in Finland is another,” Castor said.

This is what lunatic Finnish school shooter Pekka-Eric Auvinen (now deceased) left behind (and no, Odd Culture does not in any way endorse this idiot. However, we feel that this particular document is newsworthy) :

Natural Selector’s Manifesto

How Did Natural Selection Turn Into Idiocratic Selection?

Today the process of natural selection is totally misguided. It has reversed. Human race has been devolving very long time for now. Retarded and stupid , weak-minded people are reproducing more and faster than the intelligent, strong-minded people. Laws protect the retarded majority which selects the leaders of society. Modern human race has not only betrayed its ancestors, but the future generations too. Homo Sapiens, HAH! It is more like a Homo Idioticus to me! When I look at people I see every day in society, school and everywhere… I can’t say I belong to same race as the lousy, miserable, arrogant, selfish human race! No! I have evolved one step above!

Naturality has been discriminated through religions, ideologies, laws and other mass delusion systems. Individual, who is going through his/hers natural power process and trying to live naturally, but is being told that the way he acts or thinks is wrong and stupid, will usually have some reactions which might be considered as “psychological disorders” by the establishment. In reality they are just natural reactions to the disruption of natural power process. They will have some of the following (depending on individual’s personality): feelings of inferiority / superiority, hostility, aggression, frustration, depression, self-hatred / hatred towards other people, suicidal / homicidal thought etc… and it is completely normal.

Humans are just a species among other animals and world does not exist only for humans. Death and killing is not a tragedy, it happens in nature all the time between all species. Not all human lives are important or worth saving. Only superior (intelligent, self-aware, strong-minded) individuals should survive while inferior (stupid, retarded, weak-minded masses) should perish.

There is also another solution to the problem: stupid people as slaves and intelligent people as free. What I mean is that they who have free minds, are capable of intelligent existential and philosophical thinking and know what justice is, should be free and rulers… and the robotic masses, they can be slaves since they do not mind it now either and because their minds are on so retarded level. The gangsters that now rule societies, would of course get what they deserve.

Of course there is a final solution too: death of entire human race. It would solve every problem of humanity. The faster human race is wiped out from this planet, the better… no one should be left alive. I have no mercy for the scum of earth, the pathetic human race.

Collective Deindividualization: Totalitarianism & Delusions Of Democracy

Collective deindividualization is a phenomenon where individual will be trained as part of the mindless herd controlled by state, corporation, church or some other organization, group, ideology, religion or mass delusion system and adopt it’s rules, morality and codes of conduct. This phenomenon has been familiar in all despotic, authoritarian, totalitarian, monarchist, communist, socialist, nazi, fascist and religious societies troughout history. Also, the modern western democratic republics have the same phenomenon. It is just done so that people will think they are free and don’t realize they are being enslaved. Majority of people in society are weak-minded and ignorant retards, masses that act like programmed robots and accept voluntarily slavery. But not me! I am self-aware and realize what is going on in society! I have a free mind! And I choose to be free rather than live like a robot or slave. You can say I have a “god complex”, sure… then you have a “group complex”! Compared to you retarded masses, I am actually godlike.

Totalitarian governments rule people through education system, consumerism, mass media, monopoly on the legitimate use of physical force (police, military) and laws discriminating people who think differently than the majority. Democracy… you think democracy means freedom and justice? You are wrong. Democracy is a dictatorship of the moral majority… and the majority is manipulated and ruled by the state mafia. Modern western democracy has nothing to do with freedom or justice; it is totalitarian and corrupted system. Laws are made over the heads of the people and people are being brainwashed to support the system and connected to the institutional structures immediately after their birth. Societies are being ruled by manipulative and charismatic politicians who only care about the interests of majority, and who do not base their decisions on reason but emotions and feelings of the masses. These masses let the authorities of state to make all the important decisions for them. The masses will get an education, they study, get a job, go to work and vote in elections. They think they are free and don’t criticise or question the system. They have become robots. It is like a constructed mechanism in mind, that leaves little choice for an individual to think, talk and act independently.

Three Kinds Of Humans

There are three kinds of human personality types in this world:

1)individualistic human (3% of the world population)
2)manipulative human (3% of the world population)
3)mass human (94% of the world population)

#1 & #2 type of personalities are intelligent, creative and self-aware. They have chosen bit different paths paths. #3 type of personalities are less intelligent and less creative, weak-minded people controlled by #2 type of personalities. The percentages are only estimations though but are based on Gaussian distribution and history of human race and how humans have organized into societies. And this is the way it has always been ever since humans started to organize into communities.

Another way how to divide people is bit different but is based on the same facts, human nature and history. The division is based on the level of intelligence and quality of mentality:

1)intelligent (3% of the world population)
2)slightly retarded, so called “normal people” or “robots” (94% of the world population)
3)highly retarded, “vegetables” (3% of the world population)

Total War Against Humanity

Hate, Im so full of it and I love it. That is one thing I really love. Some time ago, I used to believe in humanity and I wanted to live a long and happy life… but then I woke up. I started to think deeper and realized things. But it was not easy to become existential… knowing as much as I know has made me unhappy, frustrated and angry. I just can’t be happy in the society or the reality I live. Due to long process of existential thinking, observing the society I live and some other things happened in my life… I have come to the point where I feel nothing but hate against humanity and human race.

Life is just a meaningless coincidence… result of long process of evolution and many several factors, causes and effects. However, life is also something that an individual wants and determines it to be. And I’m the dictator and god of my own life. And me, I have chosen my way. I am prepared to fight and die for my cause. I, as a natural selector, will eliminate all who I see unfit, disgraces of human race and failures of natural selection.

You might ask yourselves, why did I do this and what do I want. Well, most of you are too arrogant and closed-minded to understand… You will proprably say me that I am “insane”, “crazy”, “psychopath”, “criminal” or crap like that. No, the truth is that I am just an animl, a human, an individual, a dissident.

I have had enough. I don’t want to be part of this fucked up society. Like some other wise people have said in the past, human race is not worth fighting for or saving… only worth killing. But… When my enemies will run and hide in fear when mentioning my name… When the gangsters of the corrupted governments have been shot in the streets… When the rule of idioracy and the democratic system has been replaced with justice… When intelligent people are finally free and rule the society instead of the idiocratic rule of majority… In that great day of deliverance, you will know what I want.

Long live the revolution… revolution against the system, which enslaves not only the majority of weak-minded masses but also the small minority of strong-minded and intelligent individuals! If we want to live in a different world, we must act. We must rise against the enslaving, corrupted and totalitarian regimes and overthrow the tyrants, gangsters and the rule of idiocracy. I can’t alone change much but hopefully my actions will inspire all the intelligent people of the world and start some sort of revolution against the current systems. The system discriminating naturality and justice, is my enemy. The people living in the world of delusion and supporting this system are my enemies.

I am ready to die for a cause I know is right, just and true… even if I would lose or the battle would be only remembered as evil… I will rather fight and die than live a long and unhappy life.

And remember that this is my war, my ideas and my plans. Don’t blame anyone else for my actions than myself. Don’t blame my parents or my friends. I told nobody about my plans and I always kept them inside my mind only. Don’t blame the movies I see, the music I hear, the games I play or the books I read. No, they had nothing to do with this. This is my war: one man war against humanity, governments and weak-minded masses of the world! No mercy for the scum of the earth! HUMANITY IS OVERRATED! It’s time to put NATURAL SELECTION & SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST back on tracks!

Humanity is Overrated
Justice renders to everyone his due.
