SWEDEN’S capital was plunged into chaos on Monday as police were forced to fire at rioters after violence erupted. The scenes took place just hours after the country’s Prime Minister, Stefan Löfven, slammed Donald Trump for claiming Sweden was in crisis as a result of its liberal refugee policy.

Stockholm police were forced to fire a shot into the crowd in the hard-hit suburb of Rinkeby, after a mob of around 30 began attacking officers with rocks.

Violence erupted after the police had tried to arrest a wanted person on the subway

Yeah, I hate to see it too. I was hoping some part of old Europe might survive unscathed. It doesn’t look like much will, in some parts.

the swedes are complete and utter morons incapable of determining real world threats to their liberal socialist existence.

This will all stop when the “immigrants” are put on freighters and deposited somewhere in the ME.

I know, right? “Fired warning shots at the crowd.” Suspect died after receiving 5 warning shots to the back. Surprised Swedes don’t have special blank rounds for “warning shots.” Oh, now that I think about it, I bet they do.

Maybe it was caused by a video. </sarcasm>

I think I have to agree. Tar and feathers are too humane.

The Swedes were Nazi collaborators in WW2 so probably not.

Without a lot of dead rioters, there will be no diminution of the rioting. There are no consequences so the rioting will increase and at some point it becomes true civil war with the jihad pushing to take over and islamize Sweden. I am wondering which will be the first country o fall. Sweden looks the weakest but that sometimes is illusional. France probably has a more serious problem and Germany is working hard to bring on its own final problem.

Final problems beget final solutions.

I am guessing the Swedes aren’t using real ammo.

Sweden needs their own version of Donald Trump. The Swedish politicians are not listening to their people.

Nope. Sweden is too far gone for that. Sweden is roughly where we would have been after 8 years of Hillary, then 8 years of Michelle Obama as president. Sweden can only save itself now by revolution, plain and simple. It doesn't have to be a full scale blue-on-grey type of thing. It only has to be a couple of hundred Swedish politicians swinging from lampposts pour encourager les autres. But an election ain't going to do it. It may not do it for us, either.

Not to worry: I’m sure the self-professed feminist government will swing into action any second now...to blame “toxic Caucasian maleness.”

If Sweden, or any country for that matter, becomes too civilized to do what’s necessary to survive in an uncivilized world, they’re not going to survive.

Yes, survival of the fittest is still being contested here on the third planet.

I wonder if the Swedes ever griped about the Israelis shooting palestinians for throwing rocks.

The Swedes sold high grade iron ore to the Germans during WWII. They got rich while Americans bled from German bullets, bombs and shells shot from barrels smelted from Swedish steel.

They’ve had their noses in the air. They sat on their high horses when we fought the communists in Vietnam and today they’re no different.
One in four Swedish women will be raped by these primates but they still refuse to admit they have a problem.

If they need our help when their Islamic problem gets too big to handle, they can go to ****.

Oh, yes, isn’t it grand, the wonderful American help for WW2 Europe.

Now it’s so wonderful, isn’t it.

Good thing Hitler didn’t win, gosh, who KNOWS what could have happened, eh..?

THEN Europe would be bad.
