Norwegian war veteran compares neo-Nazi group which marched in Kristiansand to Nazi occupation time in Norway.
Last week, a group of neo-Nazi named Fatherland First held a demonstration in Kristiansand despite police ban. The march attracted 60-70 neo-nazis from neighboring countries. Police in Kristiansand was criticized for not having stopped the march.
Thor Hofsbro (83) who experienced World War II strongly reacted to both the demonstrators and the police in Kristiansand.
It seems that history repeats. I think they are dangerous. Much more dangerous than Quisling and his men before the war, said the veteran Thor Hofsbro to Dagbladet.
THIS is why Germany has their extremely strict anti-Nazi-symbol laws. It's not dead. Granted, this is from Norway, but let's look at Germany....

Nullbock on Nazi rock
The Neo-Nazi concert obviously seems difficult to prevent, to the rightradicals this weekend in the Thuringian Themar. But the police should at least not play the parking.
Citizens' initiatives "for democracy and cosmopolitanism" from the Thuringian town of Themar have vainly attacked the competent district councilor of Hildburghausen against the planned next Neo-Nazi concert in Themar this Saturday. Landrat Thomas Mueller (CDU) refused to do anything about the concert either in a "citizens' meeting" on Wednesday evening in the Themar, as well as after a "vigil", which was held on Thursday before his Landratsamt.
The citizens' initiatives marked the concerts of the neo-Nazis as a brown "power demonstration of shame". The councilor, of course, said: "The course of action is no longer in question." Prime Minister Bodo Ramelow (The Left), who had also participated in the citizens' talks in Themar, showed an understanding with the Süddeutsche Zeitung that Landrat Müller had failed to prevent the previous concerto more than two weeks ago. The district council would not want to get a bloody nose again.
Police officers served the 6,000 visitors as a guide
According to the Prime Minister, the current right of assembly is not clear enough, and it is not precise enough to prevent commercial events of the Neo-Nazi from enjoying the tax and security benefits of a constitutionally protected meeting. At the concert on 15 . July, a donation of 35 euros had been demanded as entry , police officers gave the 6,000 visitors as a guide for parking and awning. Ramelov expressed the greatest disregard for the fact that a "transfer of money into right-wing networks" is protected. It was a commercial event, not a legally protected meeting or demonstration.
