The way I see it the original poster was trying to portray Sweden (and Germany and France) as a violent and crime-infested place on the brink of collapse. Thought it might interest him that the UK really isn't any safer or less crime-ridden. We still have some catching up to do. not really, these are newspaper reports. we all know the situation is bad and with mass immigration there generally comes a bit of a crime wave. the crime wave is worse now because of where many of these people have come from and the process of dehumanisation they have been subjected to in their war torn countries. sexual attacks are frequent. the point is that western governments just see them as numbers, to the government they have to keep the ponzi scheme going by importing new people. new people to pay tax (very questionable, but they do all pay VAT and add to economic activity) and to increase GDP - thats all governments care about. they do not care about the victims of the many crimes these people will and are committing. if you are unlucky enough to be a victim of their crimes you are simply collateral damage. they will be ok as they have bodyguards, bullet proof cars and live in areas away from migrants - all paid for by the public btw. until there is a government of the people for the people this will simply continue. this will be difficult for the UK but we could do it. in the EUSSR you have no chance at all. you cannot have a government of the people for the people there, you get the arch eurocrats who sneer at the populace and are in the process of creating political dynasties with the intention of ruling indefinitely - until the next revolution that is. |

While I actually am concerned about crime and immigration those news reports could be made more balanced by pointing out that neither Sweden nor Germany can be considered more lawless or closer to the brink of collapse than the UK.

Not been many Muslims bombing shooting and chopping here this year, compared to almost daily occurrences in Germany.

Correct. However, the crimes committed by these new arrivals also help the govt in that the population has to turn to the government for protection, giving more control to the govt. |

I see no one turning to government for protection, rather they are turning against government, and if that doesn't work they will inevitably turn against the migrants.

Not over here I think, they have shat on the public for long enough, and will do as requested or get voted out.
