I already talked about the speech by Immonen, a Finnish politician, which seemed to incite a race war... It has caused quite an upheaval in Finland as the True Finns (Immonen's party) has made a massive whitewash operation on media but meanwhile people who aren't racists staged a protest against the speech and to generally show that most Finnish people aren't racists.
http://yle.fi/uutiset/diversity_rally_gathers_15000_in_helsinki/818889615'000 people might seem like a small number but considering that the pro-nationalist anti-immigration group only got 40 people into their protest it is pretty good. Also, unlike the latter protest this one did not see three quarters of the protestors arrested for assaulting people, causing damages and resisting arrest.

One of the victims was the same person who got stabbed during the "library scuffle in 2013" by the same nationalist organization that formed the core of these protestors. In fact, that story is mentioned in the Yle article but unlike the Finnish language version it does not mention that when the mob approach the man one of them gave a signal and all 40 of them charged at the victim and attacked them.
Another difference with the Finnish version articles is that the Finnish articles about the pro-diversity protest usually give 50% of the attention to the fact that a member of the True Finns asked to speek at the rally and people booed at him. They didn't attack him, they didn't throw stuff, they even let him talk and had an interview with him but news try to make it as if someone defending race war speech getting booed is as bad as making a speech promoting race war.
Even other parties are involved as a politician of SDP defended neo-nazi vigilantees patrolling the streets of Finland. (

But according to Halonen the fact that someone just happens to be a nazi doesn't mean that we should judge them and that these street patrols are having a great preventive effect on crime...
