Is this article machine translated from another language? Because it sure seems like it. Really incoherent.

I think Clintoonie called it “The Arab Spring”.

“It should be pointed out police aren’t saying why “management” would tell officers not to do any arrests.”

Giving space to destroy.

My wife has friends in the city of Malmo, Sweden and they say that their lifestyle has completely changed for the worse due to the immigrant situation. They also say there are now crimes constantly.

The people are either going to have to take a risk and move to other part of Stockholm or some businessman is going to have to risk opening a company in the area.

why does some (outside preferably swede) businessman have to take a risk? Maybe a better question to ask first is, why aren't enterpreneurs amongst the immigrants bubbling to the surface in a thousand tiny bubbles to employ themselves and their neighbors? What is different in their collective mindset from the mindset of, say, Euro migrants that went to Africa in the 1800s to carve out farms from swamps, or even early settlers of the West? If they are not productive, if welfare is how they want to live, how does it benefit the country in which they remain?

“It should be remembered there are poor white communities in the U.S. which struggle with drug abuse and poverty.”

Yes, and they’re constantly rioting, and causing mayhem.

I have Jewish fiends who live there andthey say it is much worse than reported even by Fox. They are in constant fear for their lives. They stay there to make sure that the Jewish presence stays there and not be erased as it has been in so many countries.

Malmo was an industrialized city, that went through upswings and downswings in the economy over the past sixty years. Each upswing brought migration folks and cheap labor. Normally, a downswing would cause the migrants to leave...but they’ve got benefits now and there is little necessity in packing up and looking for work elsewhere.

Official Swedish unemployment is 8-percent. Malmo is around 15-percent. Like the US numbers...after a while, you fall off the count-list. So, the real unemployment around Malmo might be near 25-percent. No one from the government talks about this angle of the issue.

Before anyone gets piped up over Muslim issues...there are close to 100 nationalities in Malmo. Various neighborhoods are ‘owned’ by individual groups. Just like in NY City....there is Little-X and Little-Y communities now in existence.

What quietly happened here (going back to the 1980s)....is that Swedes in the various neighborhoods realized the change of character and packed up to leave. More and more Swedes are 10 to 50 kilometers outside of Malmo and using the rail service or driving in. Just like in the US....since they couldn’t fix the problem, they removed themselves from the shadow of the city and just drive in. Some say the city is now roughly 40-percent migrant/immigrant....but that’s based on people now living outside of the town for the most part.

Cops? There’s a trend underway where the cops are retiring early or quitting. No respect by the migrants. No respect by the political entities. Cops tend to work in two-man teams. If you get a call at night to go into a no-go zone....you only go with several teams banded together and the strategy resembles the same method that the US Army would use in Iraq...take and arrest the target person, and quickly leave the area. It’s the only safe manner to conduct police operations. Politicians are too stupid to realize the impact.

The riot from the other night in Rinkeby? It was simply created by the cops arresting some punk kid who was dealing drugs near or in the subway station of Rinkeby. His buddies...all from Rinkeby housing project (the ghetto)...got all upset and tried to make an assault on the cops arresting their thug-buddy. The Swedish cop fired off one-round to get their attention...into the air. They backed off....cops left with their arrested punk.

After that, the ‘gang’ decided they were angry, and went and burned six vehicles from their own neighborhood (their neighbors are all poor and migrant as well). No one in the ghetto was assaulted in this two hour period.

Then, one single journalist shows up (note, ONE). This guy parks his car far enough away to avoid it being burned (he was that smart). He is seen by the gang...beat up...and his camera stolen. He gets up...walks over to the ghetto gas station (24-hour place) and tries to get the cops to come. Cops say that they got a lot of stuff going on...couple hours later, they arrive at the gas station and fill out a report. Other than that...they don’t care to get involved.

This suburb of Rinkeby? It was designed in the mid-60s to be an affordable housing area for Swedish middle-income folks....massive downturn in the economy came as it was built, and so it was not ever used as planned. Decade goes by....economy goes back up...migrants start to arrive for the jobs...and they flip this perfectly designed ghetto into their hands.

You can look at every single detail of Rinkeby and it’s housing project concept...it looks just like the neighborhoods in Chicago and NY....built to precise detail to be a low-income ghetto. Close to 18,000 in this area.

It was screwed up long before Trump ever said a word, and it’ll be there for decades after Trump.

I guess you missed this:

Google Translate isn’t perfect from Swedish to English, so bear with any grammatical errors.

3rd paragraph down, last sentence (just before the first gray translation box).

I think they understated the horrible translation job, LOL.

But the reality is that it is there because of the drive for cheap labor. The bottom line is you end up with what you paid for. In this case ghettos of immigrants, that has been exacerbated by the continual influx of immigrants that are really an invasion who want to take over, and not assimilate, that no one wants to admit.

From the article:

It’s certainly possible Rinkeby’s issues are all because of immigration, but I have a sneaking suspicion the poor economy and police crackdown on crime are probably more of a factor. The solution is more market-oriented, and won’t involve the government either handing out benefits to the population or using taxpayer funds to bribe larger businesses. The people are either going to have to take a risk and move to other part of Stockholm or some businessman is going to have to risk opening a company in the area. That’s really the best solution to the economic problem.

The immigration is absolutely the cause of Rinkeby’s issues. They allowed far more immigration then they had opportunities to support that immigration. Because of the drive for cheap labor at the expense of citizens already there. Giving absolutely no consideration whatsoever of whom they were allowing to immigrate. You should only allow those who want to assimilate, but that is not the case with the immigrants they are letting in. On top of that they are not limiting that immigration , and over immigration brings bad results. Over immigration of those who wish to take over, is not only bad, it is committing suicide.

Does Sweden still take in immigrants, esp. from Moslem countries, and if so why when there is often no work for them?

Just asking for “No Go Zones”, drug gangs, criminal gangs, and jihadist recruiting efforts.

Would make sense to me if I were a Swede, but I’m not.

It’s explained in the article that “Google Translate isn’t perfect from Swedish to English, so bear with any grammatical errors”.
