When Elin Ersson learned that an Afghan man was scheduled to be deported from Sweden on Monday, she bought a ticket for the same flight. Once she boarded the plane at Gothenburg airport, Ersson refused to take her seat, standing in the aisle, until the 52-year-old deportee was released.

But others on the flight appear to support her efforts. A group of passengers begins applauding Ersson. “We are with you,” one Turkish man says to her.

Turkish, eh?

Nobody mentions why this guy was being deported. It's not like Sweden deports people for fun. What are the chances this guy did something horrifying like rape torture some woman?

Although I would never wish this upon anyone, it's hard not to think that little Elin Ersson getting raped by the same 52-year old Afghan would be something approaching poetic justice, or something.
