[edit] Criticism

It's what ? An article from an encyclopedia or from "the Sun" ?

Lies (sexual assault ?!), lack of facts (racist agression ; The victim was coiled blows, then cut the throat of whereas it still lived), errors on the judgments (manslaughter WITHOUT the will to kill, man !), lack of the fact in sweden, this judgment => no more than one real year in jail, link with the prim minister declarations (that one can summarize of "kill all the racists"), link with the fact that the parades in his memory are regularly attacked by "antiracists"... who claim that they act thus "to defend the right of all to circulate".

[edit] Was he racist or not?

Awhile ago, someone changed "racist skinhead" to just "skinhead," with an edit note saying "He wasnt racist nor he was a nazi, he was just a skinhead." If he was really a non-racist skinhead, why did his friends and family allow others to portray him as a martyr for the white nationalist cause? Why wouldn't they have tried to use the event to warn about the dangers or racial conflict? Did they speak out to the media, explaining that he would not have agreed with the neo-Nazis politicizing his death? Why would (according to the article) Combat 18 call him "a modern Horst Wessel" if he wasn't killed for his political beliefs? Spylab 18:29, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

To be fair Horst Wessel wasn't very politically active either. // Liftarn

According to at least one English reference (and probably a bunch of Swedish sources), Daniel Wretström played drums in the white power band Vit Legion. Therefore, it is clear that he wasn't "just a skinhead." I adjusted the article to reflect that fact. Spylab 02:23, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] BLP

He was convicted of manslaughter. Entire article needs refs. 01:50, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Since others were convicted also, not reasonable to include him alone, sentence removed, refs inserted.DGG 02:06, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Martyr"

I dont support people assaulting and killing brainwashed kids, but that his nazi friends call him a "martyr" is just pathetic. If some young kid cowardly assaults a helpless girl and gets his ass kicked for it, and for some reasoon gets the tile "martyr" is just pathetic. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GodOfComicz (talk • contribs) 14:52, 15 May 2007 (UTC).
