'Eating halal can turn you into a Muslim' says crazy nationalist Swedish party.'

Swedish politician has caused outrage by saying that halal meat has magical powers and can turn you into a Muslim. The nationalist Sweden Democrat, which has around 20 percent support amongst the population, also wants to ban halal meat in schools.
Michael Ohan, the head of the nationalist party’s Heby wing told the Sala Allehanda newspaper that, “You become a Muslim if you eat halal meat,” the Local cited him as saying.
When asked by a reporter if he meant to say that halal meat had magical powers, Ohan responded by saying, “Yes. This is precisely what we have warned of. They sneak halal in everywhere.”
Ohan, who is a member of the Swedish Democrats from the small town of Heby, which is 115 kilometers northwest of the capital Stockholm, also mentioned he wants to see halal meat outlawed in local schools because he believes it is against the country’s animal welfare laws.
Traditional methods of producing halal meat involve slitting an animal’s throat to ensure the spinal cord isn’t damaged.
However, a Swedish political scientist told RT that the move to condemn halal practices is unlikely to garner widespread support, as the majority of the population “generally support plurality,” and there is a widespread acceptance of Muslim values.
Despite this, Adrian Groglopo, who is a professor of Social Science at the University of Gothenburg, says the Sweden Democrats are gaining support and would be able to get“around 20 percent of the vote if an election was held today,” and “there is a very widespread Islamophobia among [three or four] political parties in Sweden.”
“This is a very light way of saying that we do not want Muslims in this country, which is of course widespread Islamophobia,” Groglopo told RT.
“This is ridiculous saying that halal meat is a kind of magic and you will become a Muslim if you eat it. It is just ridiculous. There is no other word for that. They are starting to terrorize Muslim’s politically,” he added.
Ohan’s comments have been widely mocked on social media.
