Sweden’s police chief unveiled the force’s latest weapon in the fight against sexual assault: wristbands reading “Don’t touch me”.

The press release announced that police intend to equip young women with wristbands with the slogan “don’t touch me”. This will happen over the summer, at festivals and other events for young people. “By wearing these wristbands,” Sweden’s police chief said, “young women will be able to make a stand”.
It is unclear how effective the wristbands, which read “don’t touch me” in Swedish, will be in preventing attacks, as the majority of sex attack perpetrators are thought to be recent migrants who are unlikely to be able to read them.
Mr. Eliasson suggested that by wearing these accessories, women would also be able to “draw attention to the issue [of sexual assault], and urge those affected to report”.

Sexual assaults were reported at Swedish music festivals Arvika in 2006 and 2010, Emmaboda in 2014 and Bråvalla in 2015. Police were accused of covering up the attacks.
Breitbart London reported that Stockholm Council and festival organisers in the country knew sex attacks by migrants were endangering women, but thought it would have been “irresponsible” to speak out about the trend.

They may be, but not as crazy as the Swedes described on the article.
Try lighting a candle, or a “walk to take back the night”.
All these meaningless gestures give terrorists and their enablers all the more reason to continue. They laugh.
Hahaha. Laughable. Like magic charm bracelets, and will be about as effective.
Soon to be rape trophies.
One Wrist Band to rule them all, One Wrist Band to find them,
One Wrist Band to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Sweden where the Muzzies lie.
Those hashtags make all the difference.
These people are insane.
Then again, leftism is a mental illness.
Hey, I’ve got an idea. My brother in law makes these bracelets. He can print anything on them. How about we come up with a snappy slogan to print on them, get the government to buy a few million of them and hand them out? It would be a whole lot safer than actually addressing the problem. Besides, my brother in law could use the business.
Didn’t see the Satire tag... if not satire then this is the height of stupidity
The Police in Finland made this video, which purports to explain to women how to avoid becoming a victim.
YOU THINK this is a joke, but I’m afraid the video is 100% SERIOUS:

which read “don’t touch me” in Swedish,
BECAUSE refugees from Syria, who have little education and are probably ILLITERATE in their own native language, read SWEDISH.
and they’d be even more effective if they were bilingual, say Swedish and Arabic.
Purses with well-engineered quick release knife sheaths would be better. Emasculate a few muzzies, and things would slow down!
The Swedish people, along with other Europeans -as a whole- are for more immigration.
Works just like restraining orders in the States. Or STOP signs.

Stockholm Syndrome victims get crazy, turn radically aggressive against their attackers ALERT!

if the Swedes really want the Moslem terrorists in their neighborhoods, let’s send all of Obama’s moslem pals to Sweden.
ASAP!
