The state of Sweden is in a state of complete denial
Flopping Aces ^ | 02-21-17 | DrJohn

If an asteroid was headed for Sweden, the response of the Swedes would be to deny it, right up to impact. They would not get excited. They would not react. They would just die.

Because they're so open minded and tolerant.

Donald Trump made a statement, admittedly clumsy, about the effect of immigrants on Sweden. It ain't pretty. He was roundly ridiculed.

Now, a few days later riots have broken out in the Stockholm neighborhood of Rinkeby:

Riots broke out in a predominantly immigrant neighborhood of Stockholm Monday night, as residents clashed with police officers and set vehicles on fire, Swedish police say.

Officers were forced to call in reinforcements when a crowd began to gather in the suburb of Rinkeby during the arrest of a suspect, according to a statement from Stockholm police. Stockholm regional police chief Ulf Johansson said the clashes may have been a result of their "increased pressure on criminals in the area." The clashes come days after US President Donald Trump suggested that immigrants in Sweden were to blame for an increase in crime across the country.

It's interesting how many different ways a story can be reported. I'd like you to pay attention to how this was reported by different new sources.

RT

Police say between 30-50 people were involved in the disturbances.
Seven or eight cars were destroyed.

When it comes to the cops and most political leaders, this is just another day at the fjord.

The LA Times reported that the riots followed a drug arrest  and that the rioting was not particularly widespread. Police spokeman Lars Bystron was quoted as saying

“This kind of situation doesn't happen that often but it is always regrettable when it happens,”
Let's see how politicians are responding. From Express UK:
Erik Åkerlund, who is chief in Botkyrka, southern Stockholm, criticised reports claims there are more than 50 lawless areas in the Scandinavian country as he claimed they should actually be seen as "go-go zones" for officials.
And
Prime Minister Stefan Löfven has dismissed claims migrants are to blame for most serious crimes
But from RT
Benjamin Dousa, a Moderate politician from Rinkeby, told Expressen.se that riots and car burnings are part of everyday life in the district.

“On average, we have one riot in the month, a car fire per day, and the most shootings across the country,” he claimed, before alleging that there are between 800-1000 professional criminal youth in Rinkeby and some surrounding areas.

A retired police investigator had this to say:
In a fiery Springare, who is a police investigator in Örebro, a small city in southern Sweden, hit out against the crisis facing Sweden as he suggested criminal migrants were one of the core issues.

The former deputy chief of the serious crimes division wrote: “I’m so f***** tired. What I’m writing here isn’t politically correct. But I don’t care.

“Our pensioners are on their knees, the schools are a mess, healthcare is an inferno, the police is completely destroyed. Everyone knows why, but none dares or wants to say why.”

Listen to how the Sweden's Prime Minister parses his words:

“We’re going to try denial, and see if we can make that work.”

The asteroid was just trying to make a better life for itself.

Another "public servant" tries to define "the new normal."

Small correction:

If an asteroid was headed for Sweden, the response of the Swedes would be to deny it, even after impact.

Sweden is toast. ALL of them are brainwashed socialists. They’ll start dropping like flies once these groups get mobilized.

If the asteroid had a beard and yelled “allaku akbar” they’d send a rocket up to escort it back down.

Keep recommending to your liberal fools in your life that to escape Trump they should move to feminist ran Sweden or Germany.

Denial? Nope. They’re intentionally allowing them to take over their country.

I sat on an air flight next to a young mother traveling back to her home in Sweden. She had been traveling in the US. She told me she was scared to go back home.

I asked her why. She said she was afraid of the social unrest and violence brought about by the immigrants being let into her country. I could sense her fears were real. Her two sons under five or six years old were traveling with her.

I don’t see our news reporting the truth about this situation. Reporting is so polluted with politics.
