The organizers of a major Swedish music festival have canceled next year’s event after reports that dozens of women were sexually assaulted at the festival over the weekend.

Four rapes and 23 sexual assaults were reported at Bravalla, which bills itself as the country’s largest music festival. One woman said she was forced to have sex with a man after changing her mind, according to AFP.

“Words cannot describe how incredibly sad we are about this, and we most seriously regret and condemn this,” according to a statement on the festival’s website. “This is not f–king okay. We do not accept this at our festival.”

This marks the second time that the festival has come under fire for a spate of assaults and groping. Five rapes and 12 assaults were reported at the event in 2016, prompting UK band Mumford & Sons to pull out of the event. They vowed that they wouldn’t play the festival again unless the organizers and police could assure them that appropriate safety measures had been taken.

“Certain men … apparently cannot behave. It’s a shame,” FKA Scorpio, the German company that organizes the festival, told AFP. “We have therefore decided to cancel Bravalla 2018.

Certain men? 2 words is all it takes to show how political correctness is killing Sweden. The sad thing is that the Swedes aren't even fighting the disease but would rather die than admit multiculturism hasn't worked.

Islam is not only a war plan, it’s a killjoy.

The true men of the West in Europe may yet rise.

I hold them in my prayers.

If not, f*** them. Nuke what’s left before the scourge spreads towards us.

This is a bad precedent. It sends the message that if invaders attack women at the kinds of events their religion forbids, those events will cease to happen.

If enough of them rose up at once, there wouldn’t be enough jails to hold them all.

And I’m sure the police and army people are also thinking humans, and can’t help but see what this is doing. How soon before they desert? The Swedish police are having problems already when it comes to retaining personnel.

“The Swedish police are having problems already when it comes to retaining personnel.”

I have a solution. Hire the “certain men”

Spit on sidewalk, beheading
Dont pay jizyah, beheading
Wear booty shorts, beheading
etc...

Just think of the money saved not needing a court system.

Say it! Say it! Coward! ... "muslim" ... We all know it; it's no secret. Quit providing cover or suffer the consequences that cover provides.

BTW, I was bought and paid for by the Lord Jesus Christ, and I will go out like a savage doing my adopted home Texas proud :)

I’m dying free.

I’m trying to be hopeful but you’re probably right.

Bringing that s*** to my neighborhood, now that’s a different story altogether.

Islam is an invention of Satan. There is no music There is no joy. There is only the thirst for death.
