Parliament member[?] convicted in Scientology lawsuit
The Social-Democrat parliament member Carina Hägg was
convicted today by Jönköping court for violating
copyright law.
Hägg was convicted with fines for delivering one specimen of the Church of Scientology "secret scriptures" to the state library in Jönköping. She even have to pay 2000 SEK (220 USD) in compensation and the legal cost for the opponent for 35000 SEK (3800 USD).
- My struggle has always been to create more openness
about the ideologies and methods of cults, say Carina
Hägg. She will now go through the sentence before she
decides if she will appeal.

Get that, Swedes? You are owned by the United States of America. You
have got to do things the American Way. Your laws are not valid unless
endorsed by the U.S. of A. Fail to tow the line and next time you might
have your grants and loans held back and then your feeble economy (after
Abba split up) will be in ruins and you will all starve.
