Swedish election: PM says voting for anti-immigration SD is 'dangerous'
BBC ^

Posted on 09/08/2018 4:47:08 PM PDT by BenLurkin

The anti-immigration Sweden Democrats (SD) is expected to win around 20% of the vote, becoming the second biggest party in parliament.

Mr Lofven said an SD vote was "dangerous" and "counterproductive".

Immigration has been a central issue of the election campaigns.

The nationalist SD doubled its seats in the 2014 election and it is predicted to double them again on Sunday.

On Saturday, SD leader Jimmie Akesson said Sweden had been "an extreme country in many ways, not least when it comes to immigration" and that his plan to take in fewer migrants would be regarded as "normal politics in the rest of Europe".

Traditionally appealing to working-class men, it wants to attract more women and more educated and higher-income voters.

Mr Akesson, who became leader in 2005, says there is zero tolerance towards racism in the party and several members have been expelled.

Sweden's economy is booming but many voters are concerned that housing, healthcare and welfare services have come under pressure from a wave of immigration during the 2015 migrant crisis.

That year Sweden took in a record 163,000 asylum seekers - the highest such intake in the EU, per head of population.

Sweden's traditional parties have since hardened their tone to reflect concerns about integration.

Many voters are also concerned about violence. The SD links a rise in shootings to increased immigration...

The SD also wants to leave the European Union and has proposed a "Swexit" referendum.

But letting in violent, illiterate immigrants who cannot be assimilated is safe, right??

Swedish government is telling the Swedes to open their legs and not struggle, and hope they won’t get hurt.

Live in constant fear, wait for the next KABOOM, ignore the screams of women being raped, don't notice the burning cars, watch your culture dissolving before your eyes.

It's the Swedish way.

Dangerous to whom?

Hungary is not letting any of these so-called migrants in, and they are doing just fine.

“Mr Akesson, who became leader in 2005, says there is zero tolerance towards racism in the party “

Will the party kick out racist immigrants?

Mr Lofven thinks that Swedan being the rape capital of the world is OK???

What I don’t understand is the E.U.’s long term benefits of from anti-Europe M.E. immigrants. Spending middle class tax dollars for votes, like here with Central America illegals?

Spent time in Germany right after the wall came down. The Turks were rolling in and the Germans were in a tizzy but somehow Europeans always cow-tow to power.

It’s like they don’t have a clue about self rule, freedom, and the responsibilities that goes with it.

Option 1: Swedes date and marry other Swedes. Then when pregnancy happens, they don't murder their own children before birth. This leaves them with another generation of Swedes.

Option 2: Swedes bring in total strangers from a completely different culture that has not changed in 1400 years. Those people do what is necessary to produce children, whether or not Swedish women cooperate with their demands. Sweden's leaders think this would also leave them with another generation of Swedes.

Not safe? Says a nation whose rape rate is among the highest in the world thanks to “diversity”?

"Dangerous to whom?"

It's dangerous implying the SD party are Nazi's.
Everyone is a literally a Nazi. Hitler isn't sure who he is.
Fear mongering 101

If the first option is not viable, then a military campaign should at least not be left off the table. I hope the SD party continues to gain the traction they need to swiftly put all these economic migrant parasites in the dirt if they refuse to leave. Hell, maybe when all is said and done they can process all their shattered corpses into some form of bio fuel so they at least won’t be a complete net drain on resources.
