Spotify Executive Chris Bevington Dies In Stockholm Attack (variety.com)
"On Friday, four people were killed and about 15 more were injured when a truck plowed through a shopping area in the heart of Sweden's capital," reports Variety. One of the four victims was Chris Bevington, an executive at Spotify. An anonymous reader writes:
"The British 41-year-old had served as Spotify's director of global partnerships/business development, working from Stockholm," reports Variety. The streaming service's founder, Daniel Ek, confirmed the news with a Facebook post on Sunday. "Chris has been a member of our band for over five years. He has had a great impact on not just the business but on everyone who had the privilege to know and work with him. There are no words for how missed he will be or for how sad we all are to have lost him like this."
But how the heck did the jihadi know there was a Spotify exec there? Did he have assistance and if so was it CIA, Russian hackers, or Allah? The plot thickens...
His death can be directly attributed to our leftish governments politics. Letting hoards of violent persons into our country under the demise "refugees welcome". Its making me sick. Our police force lacks 10.000 men. Our socialist government is letting this happen. They have blood on their hands
He'd be safe in his basement, covered in Cheeto dust.
Damn you society! Why must you hate on Rust!?! Another life taken!!!!
That really makes a difference..
if only we could do something about these trucks driving into crowds by themselves for no reason
oh well guess its hopeless
You have been visited by the islamic truck of tolerance!
Honk Honk!
Society shuns us. But I'm safe in my warm basement, surrounded by...nay, bathing in cheetos.
I am a Rust programmer! Here me roar!!!
Now hold on. I'm a Rust programmer and I need to clear this up. We don't eat only Cheetos.
We eat from the whole "'tos" family. Doritos, Fritos, Oreotos( ok I cheated on that one). So stop saying we're covered in just Cheeto dust. We're covered in all sorts of dusts.
Given the tragedy that occurred comments like yours are juts appalling!
People died here!
...let us pray.
People are claiming this to justify their anti-Islam positions. Talking about this is racist.
We need more Muslim immigrants. Seriously. The only way we can stop these sorts of attacks is to flood our countries with the sorts of people perpetrating them, and maybe killing ourselves too. Don't you know your grampa was a NAZI that owned SLAVES. FEEL GUILTY YOU NON-JEWISH FUCKS.
You are a dumbass! I'd like you to know how to spell "hear"!
I suppose you would feel different about it if it was your mother that had died, especially as that would mean you would have to move out of her basement.
Great, another excuse for you white nerds to be racist.
Grow up. I have no patience for people who think with their heart. It's comparable to masturbating in public.
Irony is not lost. But instead of laughing, a sorry head shakes.
But it is tragic is to die never having really lived the life we wanted. Unfortunately, too many of us aren't really doing what we want to be doing. Events like this prompt us to think about things like that. Would I still be happy with my life today if I knew that I was going to die tomorrow? It's a question that only we can answer for ourselves.
The current party is the one that put the breaks on letting refugees in and making the asylum process stricter. The guy who committed the attack was denied asylum. The previous party that was in power, which was center-right, was the one that was turning a blind eye towards unskilled immigrants arriving for years. I suspect they will try to speed up the process of deported failed asylum seekers and keeping a closer watch on them going forward.
Some shitty people took advantage of the Syrian refugee crisis expecting they'd make it into a top European country and either be accepted despite not being Syrian or be able to get away with lying about it, and live the good life on welfare and a few extremists as well for the purpose of carrying out attacks. Europe really wasn't ready for it, did not have a strong defense on its outer border (and still doesn't, it's likely impossible to guard all possible entry points), the laws they had in place were built around handling a much smaller number of refugees in a more controlled manner. Most countries have since adapted, the number of refugees arriving has dropped dramatically, but they're still trying to figure out what to do with the ones they have and deporting the failed asylum seekers. Once the war is over in Syria, the refugees will be sent back as European countries have done with refugees from other countries that are now safe. Yeah, I'm sure some will slip through the cracks for awhile until they're caught, same shit happens in almost every major country though.
Europe has never been heaven. There are often some difficult issues going on, countries adapt to them through the normal political process and don't need to go apeshit fourth reich like the far right thinks is the only way to handle things.
People are claiming this to justify their anti-Islam positions. Talking about this is racist.
No, it's not. Liberals need to stop name calling and get a clue:
RACISM IS NOT DEFINED AS "SOMETHING THAT DISAGREES WITH THE LEFT!"
We CAN talk about issues without being racist, holding racist beliefs, or being prejudiced.
Grow the fuck up and have adult conversations.
It seems that many terrorist attacks in recent years have come from Muslims. This might be a false perception because of media bias, so
1) Does anyone have strong statistical evidence that the problem is Islam, and not a different common feature?
2) Would it make sense to bar entry to the US from certain world areas?
3) Would it make sense to put Muslims under enhanced scrutiny domestically?
As an anecdote to #3, I heard news articles saying that the local Imam in Florida was calling for death to gays before the nightclub attack. Are such overt calls for violence protected as free speech or freedom of religion, or should we make certain exceptions?
Discuss. None of these questions is racist, or indicate inherent racism to an intelligent person. (But it might to liberals.)
Ex-USSR uneducated, radicalized, revanshistic scum is killing people producing innovations in the heart of progressive, liberal Europe.

The only purpose of solemnity is control.
Once you get people to be solemn in extreme cases, over time you can slowly get people to agree in less compelling situations.
Eventually, everything becomes serious, everything is "not a joking matter".

Do care more for this guy than the others because he worked for a tech company? The other three had hobbies, relationships, careers (except the eleven year-old).
I get that this is a tech news site, but the fact that he worked for a company we've heard of (or that he made a lot of money) does not seem like sufficient cause to care about his death so much more than the other victims.

If I had been complicit in her death, then my torment would be deserved.
Those who allowed the invasion of Islam to destroy Sweden are guilty, complicit, and have the blood of children on their hands.
Rationally, it is not.
It's not just an attack. It is an Islamic terrorist attack. Get your story straight and stop being assholes, goddamnit!
I'm neither for nor against the concept of the private ownership of portable weapons, but I think this is further proof that the question of relatively easy access to such devices has become irrelevant, at least, in cases where a determined would-be killer, whether ideologically motivated or just plain nuts, is involved. Military-style weapons such as bombs and rapid-fire guns have been used, as well as more cumbersome tools as hand guns and knives, and even implements that you won't normally think of as weapons, such as trucks and, yes, cookware (Boston marathon bombing).
The debate over guns is another matter, but in a discussion about terrorism and other forms of mass murder, it only clouds the issue. We are really better off discussing whether we should ban globalized social media, where individuals from different cultures are exposed to a dangerous fusion of ideas.
What I mean about such dangerous ideas is that some ideas, while relatively harmless on their own might produce dangerous consequences when combined. Conservative Islam, uprooted from its roots, could produce an inner conflict in a potential terrorist who sees "immoral" women wearing miniskirts and men drinking and doing drugs in broad daylight, actions that would be improper at worst to a culturally acclimatized member of a liberal society. Now if such ideas are restricted to the region of their origin, where such ideas are deemed conventional rather than radical, then maybe we can reduce incidents of ideological schizophrenia that lead to the random acts of violence that we call terrorism.

I have a feeling many don't even work in tech. They have some shit low skill job or are mooching off their parents and troll comments all fucking day and night looking (when they're not at work, if they have a job) for anything where they can spew their hate and propaganda.
I think most of the old school /. crowd has long gone. Suggest ditching this place for Hacker News or anywhere better since no one really controls this site anymore beyond choosing which articles to post and the far right spam all the comment threads now.
Sweden is a runner-up for rapes per capita, fighting with Botswana for the second spot (after South Africa).
Really messes with a statistics if you have a country like Sweden classify consensual sex, with non-consensual condom disappearance, as rape.
They should just call it the Assange sexual offense.
Wait, Assange apologists still exist? I though you guys had given up when he lied about surrendering if Obama granted clemency to Manning.

There are plenty of evidence that some genetic marker are present in certain population, marking certain population to a greater weakness (or sometime strength) against some sickness. But it is disputable that they mark what you would call biological race, as they lack the physical isolation, do not have very specific karyotyp (even the melanine one) in human it is only a more likelyness to have such karyotyp or even a continuum of various karyotyp. The only subset you may do is possibly morphological, but even for that and for the karyotyp, you do not have specific identifier you can assign 100%, you have a continuum. That is why even if you look at various biological book or source, they usually sidestep the issue of human race, not because of the sociological indication, but simply because there is no easy way to separate and quantify those. And no, even skin color do not work that well (morphological races - would put for example part of india with africa).

Odd. I have no respect for people who don't have a heart.
Why am I not surprised? It's a HOSTS file conspiracy!
A 39 year old man from Uzbekistan was the guilty one. People who seem to have been cheering him on to later push their false but simple solutions are, in one word, deplorable. People trying to navigate the extremely difficult shallows of right and wrong vis a vis immigration as best they can should at the worst be replaced with others who can do it better. And here's a hint as to whom not to replace them with: Don't go with the racists. It never ends well.
I heard news articles saying that the local [religous leaders] calling for death to gays
These are not left/right questions, it is a free speech issue and a rascism/protectionism issue. Here in Scandinavia terror spread from the far right is actually a bigger concern, if we look at terror attacks on our soil. These acts of terror are not done by muslims, and by your logic we should start looking harder at the far right and prohibiting their leaders to express themselves in media. We already hinder free speech, and it is helping to some extent to have consequences when you call for the death of all ZYX, not very harsh though. We are not banning far right activists entry, that's about as ridiculous as your suggestion though.
So sure your statements are racist, let me use a car analogy; car owners kill a lot of people with their cars, it would make a lot more sense for the US to ban cars from certain high risk areas. Sure they are "accidents" but they do happen consistently and the group of car owners can very well be held responsible, just as you say that the billions of muslims in the world should take responsibilities for the actions of the few.
In the end when you say "we should not let the group XYZ do ZYX" it's easily rascism.
Yes, but what kind of life is that? You'd envy the dead.

So? They do that all over the globe all the time. "4 people died" is a breezy sunny morning in most parts of Africa. Provided that for a change NO militia comes by. Then you could add a zero or two.

Or why anyone else should even remotely be bothered by the death of my mom? I bet you didn't even hear about it when she died.

You saying Spain, France, England, Romans and Russians are Nazis for banishing Jews? First link in his post says what is going on from a Jew. You deny it?
How is it bullshit? The facts of those nations in history banishing jews is accurate and the video link shows a Jewess saying jews are behind this multi-culturalism problem going on! You a Jew, Opportunist? I'd say you are based on that lame reply.
Too bad the Nazis fucked up and missed a certain Polish family when they were trying to exterminate them all, too, dumbass.
They didn't (my family was in their labor camps) & is THAT the best you have vs. facts I put out here https://news.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=10467657&cid=54205123/ ? I saw the video with the Jew woman saying they are behind what is causing a LOT of problems worldwide FORCING IT on nations that obviously don't WANT IT. WTF, are you stupid? She said it literally! Christianity and Islam can't mix. All these problems prove it worldwide. Makes for a good recipe to get Christians and Muslims out of the way getting them to kill one another imo!
* See subject: My late grandpa & grandma, father, aunts & uncles by the way so you f'd up stupid! They took a family business we had there, starved & impoverished us till we did well in the USA after the war.
Jews hiding in their neighbor's attic got a whole family killed too (family didn't know the jew snuck up there).
APK
P.S.=> Prove otherwise or convince me otherwise, I'm willing to listen. There's no denying Spain, France, Egypt, Arabs (post 1948 & before it, related yet they do NOT get along causing all kinds of problems & wars), England, Romans/Italians, Russia pogroms & yes, under Putin now, and Germany got rid of the Jews. Why? The pull shit. I spoke to many Europeans in 2010 and Jews gang up on say a baker (family was that for 100's of years). They try buy them up & if they don't sell, Jews underwrite a competitor to drop prices so low, it puts the business out - this type of thing made ALL of Europe hate them (fact)... apk
Hey! My grandpa died in a concentration camp!
He fell drunk off a watch tower. But that's not the point now.
Sorry, but let's say my country has a history of some idiot pretending that the answer to everything bad on the planet is "the Jews". Guess what, it doesn't take the "eternal Jew" for shit to hit the fan. People all over the globe are selfish bastards, that's not limited to a certain ethnic group.
But to answer your question, no, I'm not Jewish. At least according to a document that belonged to my grandpa that was issued by people who really, really, REALLY thought it's important for some odd reason that he's not. He and me didn't get along too well, but hey, according to you that doesn't matter, what matters is that he's my grandpa, right? It's in the genes, because people are preprogrammed idiot machines that are limited by what their ancestors were.
And with people like you, I almost believe that.

With false name online people like you, I don't believe you! Got indisputable proof you're of German ancestry? No. George Soros a jew said he was German as he sold jews belongings for Nazis & he had "papers" too! That's jews. Liars. Proof's in Soros the nut who thinks he's a God and says he wants to break the USA! Keep wasting your time instead of working this job you obviously don't have. I can waste you all day. This is going to be fun watching you dance to the jew's harp and my tune seeing your further double talk and evasion of proving your words. You can't even prove your name much less your ancestry. Ashamed? Why the false name online then if not? You're up to no good obviously and don't give us that shit about "anonymity" either. That's bullshit. Even Jew Mark Zuckerberg said if you don't use your real name online you have no integrity and are up to no good (more or less). He doesn't use a fake name, right? Right. I can say I am Bill Gates and a Black man I guess and be just like you! 5. Schabouth Hag. 6d: "Jews may swear falsely by use of subterfuge wording." They do it all the time as lawyers and in business and who is surprised they say that in their talmud? No one.
The Angry JUDEN collective downmods things they can't doubletalk their way out of. Jewgle does it 4 "fake news" (truth they hide) too APK. That's the reason for you being down moderated. George Soros the Jew pays his disgruntled minions to do it http://www.bing.com/search?q=Groups+George+Soros+funds&src=IE-SearchBox&FORM=IESR02&pc=EUPP_/ while he tries overthrow the USA and other governments too as he says he is a God (and betrayed other jews to hitler). Webmasters under JEWgle's ad money control do it also. No doubt about it. Everyone knows it. You hit the truth and they are scared. Jews yell to high heaven "holocaust" over 6 million jews dead. How many others died? Russians, Poles, and US soldiers alone accounted for FAR more each individually. Now you talk about their lies and they have to hide it. You aren't allowed to show truth! Only JUDEN APPROVED fake news. Who controls the presses? Judes!
Actually, funny enough, I have proof that you'd probably even accept. I just honestly don't really care enough about the opinion of someone like you.
Because I know how it continues. I've been there before. You'd just lament how horrible it is that a good decent Aryan like me is falling for the Jewish plot of total annihilation of the human race. Except Jews, of course. And Commies, let's not forget about the Commies.
For some odd reason, the likes of you don't die out. The most recent idiocy is how Jews conspire with Muslims to get the downfall of humanity going. Because Jews and Muslims are great buddies. But sense and logic isn't really the big topic when it comes to simple solutions based on hatred.
Your philosophy can be summed up with a simple creed: I fail as a human, and I don't want to take the blame, so the Jew is to blame. Or the Muslim. Or the Mexican. Or the establishment. Or someone else, the scapegoat du jour. But not me! I'm not to blame that my life is going to waste!
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
Prove it. You can't. You care. You just projected it. Why else keep evading proof and doubletalking? You fail as an honest human being. We don't die since we don't end up in Zyklon B gas chambers or ovens! Your philosophy of doubletalk and no proof of your words is hilarious. You are being shredded logically doing it to yourself really and can't blame anyone else. You are caught in a logical knot you can't escape and you know it. No amount of your bullshit makes it stop stinking you know.
Nobody here said Jews + Muslims are working together. Show us where they did. You running out of crap to spew putting words in our mouths as you can't back up your lie? I think so by now. It seems apk suspects jews are causing trouble with their world social experiment which a jew admits they are indeed behind in APK's post's first link! From what I read using muslims whose faith is nothing like christian and they don't mesh. I am a Christian. I don't cut off the heads of those that don't convert. I don't treat women they way muslims do. The cultures are too unalike and proof is in the pudding. They do not mesh.
While a slippery slope I'd question, or at least be a bit critical of those stats. I say this because I believe in certain cases the actual reporting to which those stats get built from are going to be highly influenced by how easy it might be for the victim to come forward and report the rape in the first place. The three countries you list, I suspect would likely have many challenges to the reporting I think.
