I couldn’t have said it any better.
This is an assault upon the rule of law and the civil society, and those who oppose it should work towards amending it through legislation, and if they fail to achieve their results, then they just have live with it like the rest of us. There still is a working parliament, no matter how flawed and statist it is.
If the taking of law into ones own hands is encouraged by tacit approval, according to her, soon publications and freedom of speech will be in danger as well.

MP has had enough: If state authority is opposed, the consequences are serious
National Coalition (Kokoomus) Pauli Kiuru urges the media to choose its policy line, for legal order or a critic of it.
National Coalition Pauli Kiuru comments on Facebook on Monday at the Jyväskylä reception center where police officers were actually kidnapped.
– So now it’s, such a thing shouldn’t be allowed in Finland. If one’s own opinion is to promote the surrounding of police, then the future is bleak, Pauli Kiuru said.
– The decisions are not “complained about” by threatening the police. Or is it a goal to have a prison sentence and a longer stay in Finland ?, she ponders the motives of returnable asylum seekers.
Later Monday, Kiuru published an open letter to the media. There she said that “the media must choose their line”.
– Do you want to comply with legal order in Finland or will you give a silent consent to the opposition of officials?
– If that line is taken into account by the police in the execution of official duties and legal decisions, the consequences are serious. The aggressive resistance to officials who are doing their job is growing alarmingly. There are firefighters, medical staff, teachers, etc. behind the police, “Kiuru says.
If the taking of law into ones own hands is encouraged by tacit approval, according to her, soon publications and freedom of speech will be in danger as well.
– If stories are not liked, then publications will be surrounded. On whose side will the media then stand – legal order or protesters?
– I therefore oppose the threat of violence and the entrapment of officials. It should not be silently approved by the media as well. If this interfering with the media, I then happily interfere.
