It has to do with the new programmes. Obligatory Danish lessons, they have to do some work for unemployment money and things like that. Some muslims use the quran to refuse to work. The can't handle pork in fx. shops or restaurants. The can't work in a kindergarten because the babies have eaten pork and therefor have "haram" in their diapers. Danish babies are impure! Things like that have been brought to a stop. (And now a huge number of muslims suddenly have a doctors written statement, that they are to ill to work ! Hrmmmf!)

Only about 5 pct. are genuine refugees in the UN definition, but some achieved the status of one anyway before we tightened the laws. Another 5 pct. were immigrants from the 70', 80' and 90'. The rest came in an endless chain of family reunification. Even in 4.th generation, the majority of the muslims have arranged marriages - the famous cousin. Who used to be allowed to bring his or her family up here. One in four (1:4) Pakistani muslims i Denmark have incest related diabetes 2 because of cousin marriage. For the Turks it is one out of 8 (1:8). There are a lot of other diseases that follow the children of a marriage between close relatives, but we still haven't forbidden it. Learning disabilities for instance. Especially related to language.

The local school district has had to open remedial schools with multi-lingual teachers, etc. A couple regular schools had to be closed due to the budget shortfalls, which didn't go over very well with those families.

They bring customs with them that just don't work here- a couple weeks ago an entire family killed themselves by cooking over charcoal in their apartment (not far from where I live). They died from CO poisoning. A winter storm caused a power outage, and even though they were warned about cooking indoors, they went ahead and did it anyway.
We have stopped the multi-lingual programmes, because they did not improve the children's performance. But all children in Denmark learn English and German obligatory and lessons in French are offered to all children. They also learn to read and understand Norwegian and Swedish. That is in the elementary school system. Public as well as private.

Ayaan Ali Hirsi's English is perfect. She is a female Walid Shoebat and she is a big brain gain. Don't worry!

Wow! Animated avatar! Great!
