A German Canoe Trip
Sixteen Germans (from Berlin) go ashore by their canoes at a beach of a
Finnish country cottage at Suvasvesi in Leppävirta. When a neighbour called the owners and told them what was going on, their son came to expel those uninvited people from the property. Some of them turned angry about it and refused to go away. Anyway, he managed to collect identity of some of the intruders. I guess a legal act will follow at a Finnish court. http://www.iltalehti.fi/uutiset/2011...56470_uu.shtml O tempora! O mores! |

I hate to think what would happen if they were Libyans washed up in a boat from Tunisia. I was wondering, if a boatful of starving Norwegians got washed up on the shores of Denmark, would they be rescued or locked up? (Hint: Norway is not a member of the EU. And Denmark claims to be). |

Poor analogy- Norway is in the EEA and Norwegians have the same immigration status as EU nationals: indeed Denmark and Norway's agreement probably predates the EU/EEA, similar to UK/Ireland and no doubt other groups... -- (*) of the royal duchy of city south and deansgate www.davidhorne.net (email address on website) "[Do you think the world learned anything from the first world war?] No. They never learn." -Harry Patch (1898-2009) |

I was wondering, if a boatful of starving I am wondering, too. A boat with starving Libyan refugees coming from Tunisia is washed up on Finland's beaches. First thing they do, after closely missing Gibraltar, Dover, Skagen and København (Bornholm was seen, but campgrounds were full), is firing up their barbecue, placing the picnic tables and the Tupperware boxes - and have lunch. Now, I think it's very well-thought of them to starve all the 28000 km from Africa to Scandinavia. Unthinkable what might happen if open fire is used in wooden boats! I am wondering, however, where you see the link between stupid tourists at a picnic table and starving boat people? SCNR ; |

What does either hypothetical situation have to do with German tourists trespassing on private property? |

There seem to be a large number of tourists everywhere who tend to regard beach/lake/riverfront property as open to the public, but in most civilized countries that is not true. Whether they are welcome or not depends upon the property's owner, not the tourists' whim! SCNR ; |
