Swedens justice and migration minister has accused anti-immigration party leaders of lying about Sweden after they wrote in the Wall Street Journal that Donald Trump was right in his comments about immigration.
He spoke hours after Sweden Democrat bosses Jimmie Åkesson and Mattias Karlsson wrote in an opinion piece published in the Wall Street Journal on Thursday that Mr. Trump did not exaggerate Swedens current problems when he falsely suggested that immigration had sparked a rising crime wave in the country.

Swedens justice and migration minister Morgan Johansson told The Local on Thursday that the government would submit its own opinion piece to the newspaper to counter the claims.
I note that it has gone so far that the Sweden Democrats are intentionally harming Sweden by lying about how things are. We cant let that go unchallenged. Theyre painting a picture of a country characterized by violence, when its the exact opposite. Not to mention the risk of being the victim of deadly violence in the US is four times higher than in Sweden, he said.

how about this idiot immigration minister spend one night in downtown?
You can never confirm an accusation until it has been officially denied.
I’d offer to drop off Mr. Johansson’s wife and/or daughter in the middle of Rinkeby some evening - he shouldn’t have any problem going along with that.
That’s not what the Swedes on my Facebook page say.
Bismarck, Otto von - “Nothing is proven until it is officially denied.”
Our crime is mostly home-grown, at least, and we’re making an effort to control our imported crime, not make it worse.
Ya right , I always take any Government departtment with “Ministry” in the name as a source of unbiased truth.
Morgan Johansson is a lying douchebag.
It’s not just the minister who needs to ride with the cops one night....the mayor and city council people need to also ride for one evening. It ought to be written into city code that you have to ride at least two or three nights a year to maintain your elected position.
Let's compare and contrast, shall we?
In the US, young black males make up less than 2% of the population, yet commit more than 50% of the violent crime.
If we were to ship all the young black males to Sweden, how would that affect the respective crime rates?
The need for a “migration ministry” speaks for itself.
Yep Malmo just got promoted from the “Rape Capital of the World” to the “Most Peaceful City in the World”.
It is now and has been absolutely safe for blond women and girls to walk around Malmo in short skirts, yoga pants wearing low cut blouses without any head coverings. See, now the gals will flock back to Malmo, that guy sure knows how to fix bad press and solve the migrant crisis at the same time! Impressive!
Seeing that Sweden is 0.04% the size of the USA, it's probably not the best idea to be citing that "1/4th as much" figure very often

The comparison is not Sweden vs US in crime. That is a red herring. The real comparison they will not make is Sweden pre Muslim refugees with Sweden post refugees.
See post 16. Don’t be goaded into a false comparison.
“The comparison is not Sweden vs US in crime. That is a red herring. The real comparison they will not make is Sweden pre Muslim refugees with Sweden post refugees.”
Precisely:
Today Sweden’s (acknowledged) violent crime level is 25% of the US, so everyone’s lying about any problems there...even though 20 years ago it was probably 10%...and 10 years from now it will be 50%. 15 years, 75%.
In all cases above, still under 100%, so NO PROBLEMS there at all - right. These are some of the best educated people in the world...so they cannot LIE to us about not having a bad trend - they see it just as easily as we do.
Most of the family-less urban blacks have been raised with hate, like the “Palestinians” in what is rightfully Israel. All part of the left-wing agenda, which includes abolishing the family and hate indoctrination.
