Study: Young Men in Sweden Twice As Likely To Be Killed in Shootings Compared to Rest of Europe

A new study has claimed young men in Sweden are twice as likely as their European counterparts to be victims of a deadly shooting as gang violence across the country has continued to grow. The study, which was published in the European Journal on Criminal Policy and Research this week, compared Sweden to twelve other European countries, finding young men aged 15 to 29 were ten times more likely to be fatally shot than young men in Germany and six times more likely to be shot than young men in Britain, Dagens Nyheter reports.

Over the past ten years, the researchers claim that gun violence in Sweden has dramatically increased, but criminologist Manne Gerell, one of the researchers who authored the paper, said that this did not fully explain the results of the study.

Gerell said that more research was needed to explain why Sweden had such different results from other European countries.

“We have gone from younger men being shot a little more often than older men until now they are shot much more often,” Gerell said.

The feminist run lunatic asylum of Sweden is imploding...and I no longer give a rat’s arse.

This is a trap. Sweden has higher rates of gun ownership than the rest of Europe.

Remember when Sweden was famous for Ikea, smorgasbord, no war, good coffee, midnight sun, and attractive blonde women?

((((Sigh))))

[Cicero]

Ah, for the good old days!

[JohnBovenmyer]

Sweden has higher rates of gun ownership than the rest of Europe.

Then it's about time they start shooting back.

Could it be people stopping others from stealing, raping and assaulting their goods and family members?

I spend a great deal of time in Sweden. The country has changed immeasurably due to liberal immigration policies. A great number of their traditions, such as the sacred allemansrätten are now indefensible. Unthinkable burglaries and incidents of violence are common. Nudity, a national and decent pleasure when sunbathing, is gone. And the rape of young (pre-teen) girls on the streets is common. Stockholm has been completely transformed. I love Sweden, as I love Norway, and I do weep for Sweden.

And ABBA, but I heard they quit the country years ago because of the taxes.

It is now time for the unspeakable to be spoken. The solution is known. We need to save the blondes! And who amongst us will comply with the rules?

[JohnBrowdie]

I understand Breitbart’s point. I’m just telling you what the overwhelming majority of the MSM spin is going to be.

[Mrs. Don-o]

allemansrätten

Thanks, I just learned a good new word.

I can see why these types of "Swedish" men are getting there asses shot and it's a good thing.

[rrrod]

They brought it on themselves....

[shanover]

Could it be the Muzzies?

[cicero2k]

At least the voters, and by extension the leaders; felt smug for a while.

[Yaelle]

For centuries Sweden has had the most violent cities, right? Nothing has ever changed this rate of violence.

Oh, wait a second...

If the ‘men’ there don’t want to protect their women from a near-constant rape culture, and instead blame Trump, it’s difficult to feel sorry for them when they’re gunned down by those same rapists.
