Denmark jails 'racist' pizza man

[edbermac]

Goddamn freepers are EVERYWHERE...

"A Danish pizzeria owner has gone to jail for refusing to pay a fine imposed after he barred German and French customers from his restaurant.

Aage Bjerre acted in protest against the French and German governments' opposition to the US-led war in Iraq.

He will now serve an eight-day sentence at a minimum security prison, the Associated Press reports.

"I'm doing it to show my sympathy with the United States," he said. He refused to pay a 5,000-kroner (£461;$800) fine."

The moron even managed to get the French flag wrong - unless he intended to use a Dutch flag (red-white-blue: the Netherlands; blue-white-red: France).

2. As a Scandinavian American I must say

Dude, don't do it, we're n ot worth it--at least not right at this moment.

ANd on a side n ote--Danish Pizza? That ought to be intersting. The New Zealanders sure managed to mangle pizza, can the Danes be better? If they have a calzone on their menu, they have a shot at it.

3. Well hell, if he wanted to show his support, he could have gotten a

job as a Blackwater Security contractor couldn't he?
