The killing of Anna Lindh


Michael Lemdal 2008-05-01

This article is about my feelings about the killing of our minister of foreign affairs Anna Lindh.

I don't remember where I was or what I was doing when I heard abot the murder. Probably in school. I do remember my feelings, I didn't feel any particular rage or I wasn't espcailly sad. Many people felt like that, but I felt more ashamed that we in Sweden can't protect our ministers better. A few days after the killing I talked to a friend and she had been terribly sad and almost couldn't do her homework. Right then I wondered if there was something wrong with me. I didn't mourn I never knew Anna Lindh. Personally I find the killing of the poor five year old girl one or two days after as much sadder. Anna Lindh knew what risks she took the little girl shouldn't have any need to know anything like that.
