Meanwhile, in Greenland......

Anti-Trump protests erupt in Greenland and Denmark

Thousands of people took to the streets in Greenland and Denmark on Saturday to protest against Donald Trump’s ambition to seize control of the Arctic territory.

Protesters at Hands off Greenland rallies brandished the island’s red and white Erfalasorput flag and chanted “Kalaallit Nunaat!”, the island’s name in Greenlandic, a day after the US president had threatened tariffs on countries opposing his planned takeover.

Others held up signs and banners reading “US has enough ICE”, “Greenland is not for sale” and “Yankee go home”.

Organisers said demonstrators in Nuuk were showing their resistance to the “illegal” plans, while Uagut, an association of Greenlanders in Denmark, said its own rally was sending “a clear and unified message of respect for Greenland’s democracy”.

Julie Rademacher, the Uagut chairman and one of the main organisers, said: “We want to send a clear message – Greenland doesn’t want to become American.”

They believe the humans who live in these countries just have to go along with whatever idiot owns their land. As the stagnant oppressive feudal systems ground on and huge chunks of land were sold to whatever Lord won the most influence with the king. The serf and farmers who lived on the land and worked to farm it, were sold along with property.

So, if Pedo Trump decides he wants Greenland, I guess the citizens are then his property too?
