  • Gronland is an ethnic district north east of Central station made up of mostly Arab immigrant communities. Characterized by Far Right hysteria as a 'No Go' area and the 'Most Dangerous Place in Norway' you can see its perfectly normal with locals going about their business and nice restaurants.

    Firstly, people say that Grønland is the most dangerous city in Oslo..which it is, it is at least on the top list when compared to other cities or places within Oslo. Once a time, a city called Holmlia carried this list.
    As a female, I’ve been harassed twice in broad day light, while walking the streets of Grønland. I can’t ever imagine being alone at night. I only felt safe on a day I went to ab eatery with a man.
    Recently 8 women where for absolutely no reasons, harassed, spat on and threatened with knife in Gronland (published on VG as of 11.06.2022)
    Men at the other hand are 7/10 safe as long as they have no rivals/ found in drug crisis etc.

    Grønland is not the most dangerous place in Oslo, its just the most multicultural place or the place with the most poverty. The multicultural areas we call «drabantby» which is sorta like a council estate area usually 15-20 min away from the city centrum. Those are more dangerous areas, there are more shootings and gang wars and stuff over there

    • @Departures1
      @Departures1  4 года назад +4

      I have never said this is the most dangerous place, that is why I put it in "quotation marks". Other far right sights are spreading this type of nonsense. I tried to show it is a very friendly safe area where everyone mixes. It reminds me of the area in East London where I grew up which was similarly multicultural.

      I say that as an atheist immigrant born in a Muslim family, Multiculturalism never causes problems, on the contrary, it promotes mutual cultural development.
      But the real problem is that in many Muslim countries/societies you will not find anything in the name of Culture, For example, it is impossible to see the tolerance/respect of a Far Eastern Muslim from a Middle Eastern Muslim, you cannot find the tolerance and harmony of a Turkish/Azerbaijani Muslim in a Pakistani/Afghanistani Muslim.
      Tolerance, which has a deep-rooted history in your country, is a very valuable social value, you have to find a way to protect your country from these vandals by preserving these social and cultural values ​​of yours, without racism.

    A drunken group of men acosted me whilst I was walking down a busy street in this area, holding my 6 year olds hand. One threatened me and wanted to fight me.
    All i was doing was walking to get my child some sweets from the 7/11. Never felt safe in Oslo from the moment we arrived. It just topped off the whole shit experience.
