Sweden struggles over child marriage
Pollutico Europe ^ | 7/24/18, 10:45 AM CET | Nathalie Rothschild

A row over how to deal with child marriage among immigrants has inflamed political debate ahead of a general election in Sweden, where migration continues to divide public opinion and the far right is riding high in the polls.

A tug-of-war between the ruling Social Democrat-Green Party coalition and the opposition over the government’s role in managing or eradicating the practice — which predominantly affects young girls, and in some cases boys, from immigrant backgrounds — is emblematic of a broader struggle to find a balance between efforts to integrate a large number of new immigrants and preserve a Swedish way of life.

“Sweden has been bad at providing people who come here with clear information about how our system works, about this society’s views on children’s rights, gender equality, family policies, and parents’ and guardians’ responsibilities,” said Juno Blom, who is running for parliament on behalf of the opposition Liberal Party.

“While we insist that Sweden protects children’s rights and that we promote a child-centered approach to children’s welfare, we have allowed children of foreign backgrounds to live as married women with older men,” said Blom, who also acts as Sweden’s national coordinator to counter honor-based violence and oppression. …

They consider it wrong to discuss Mohammed’s views on prepubescent brides and capturing slaves in violent holy wars.

Well, then you don’t, do you, protect children’s rights? You place Protected Group Status higher for Muslim adult males than for any children.

“I’m not sure who, in this equation, deserves the gallows more.”

Easy, the feminazis. They knew who they were letting in.

I keep waiting for the moment the Swedes realize that they aren’t assimilating the immigrants, but the immigrants are assimilating them, but it never happens.

They’re a province. Of the magical EU.

The Swedish politicians are a lot more wacked than I thought. And as another freeper wrote... they made their own bed... now sleep in it.

Rule by crisis. If it can make the EU “come together” in fear and demand “security” from its elites, it must be good.

What's to "struggle" with/over? In many cases it's pedophilia and the pervert Muslim should be arrested, tried, incarcerated and DEPORTED after he has served a lengthy prison sentence. Problem solved.

Sadly the Swedish government is gutless, afraid of the 7th century Muslim barbarians in their midst, and unwilling to enforce laws already on their books concerning these reprehensible crimes against children.

That said, if a WHITE, national citizen committed the exact same heinous crimes the PC Swedes would throw the book at him.

Once great Sweeden has turned into a nutered, PC, P hat liberal, Muslim hell hole.

Wouldn’t call that a solution; after all, if you deport him, he’s free to victimize children back in his homeland.

And it really has zip to do with skin color. If anyone white declared that they were a Mahometan and did this, the lefties there would look the other way.

This is rule by crisis. It’s all about further destroying national identity and inducing demand for “security” and “solidarity” in the name of the EU at the detriment of the member state sovereignty.

What’s the problem? they have already allowed the “migrants” to rape the women and to have 4 wives. Be consistent and allow your new masters to declare that they are marrying girls and be done with it.
You know you’re going to do it. Your country is watering the seeds of its own downfall.

“They made their own bed”

This is true.

The author seems to want to rewrite history. Sweden’s voracious adoption of multi-culturalism was to import different and separate cultures within its border. Sweden saw their own society and culture as inferior because of their homogeniety.

All cultures are equally valid. Just ask a leftist.

And I'm guessing nobody asked the nine year olds their opinion on the matter.

Imagine not even have hit puberty yet and you're faced with a grown man having intercourse with you - all totally legal and condoned.

What a disturbing picture. The lack of shame of these men, who want children instead of women.
