Bombs, shootings are a part of life in Swedish city Malmö
Deutsche Welle ^ | 11.23.2019 | Nancy Isenson

At times it seems like Malmö has more in common with Baghdad than with other European cities. This year 29 bomb explosions rattled the city of 317,000 as of November 11. Police reported 50 shootings in the Malmö region by the end of October — in a country where guns are hard to come by legally.

Formerly an industrial town known for shipbuilding, Malmö has remade itself since the Oresund Bridge, which connects it to the Danish capital, Copenhagen, opened in 2000. Sweden’s third-biggest city has become a knowledge hub, with a new university drawing students from Scandinavia and abroad and more and more companies, including gaming industry giants Massive and King, setting up shop on the eastern side of the straight. It’s also the country’s most diverse city: Around a third of its people are foreign born.

Malmö residents are used to seeing almost daily reports about violent crime. On Tuesday, for example, public broadcaster SVT reported that gang members had forced a grocer to allow them to stash drugs in his city center store. Police have been struggling to contain the violence, which they attribute mainly to gangs that deal drugs.

The latest efforts have been prompted by a November 9 shooting in front of a pizzeria, which killed one 15-year-old boy and put another in hospital. Police declared a national “special event” and set up a task force to quell gang violence. […]

Violent crime in Malmö has declined since 2017, when a total of 58 bombs exploded and 81 shootings took place in the region. But there’s still a long way to go until it loses its reputation for crime. …

Malmo’s problem is what tactical nukes were invented to solve.

Sweden used to be an affluent, peaceful, homogeneous and very BORING country.

People longed for some excitement, diversity and vibrancy, so they imported it and now they have it in spades.

They will soon be longing for a boring country again, but alas, they’ll discover that you can’t go home again.

It’s enough for the world to be multicultural. That’s a good thing, and makes life more interesting. It’s not necessary for nations to be multicultural, and unless there is something about a nation that all citizens are proud of and can coalesce around, multiculturalism will likely split that nation.

Indeed. Ironically, the Left in this country promises “Scandinavian socialism” as we import Central & South America.

Remember when the media and the Left made fun of Trump for his comments on Sweden a couple years back?

"I love Malmo," said Moreno, who has no plans to move away despite the threats he receives for his coverage of gangs. He describes a reporting trip to Mexico, where people were terrorized by drug cartels but still managed to go about their everyday lives.

"I feel that sometimes you can also get used to something," he said. "For example, when I speak to people who tell me they are changing their rooms — as if it were normal: 'I'm changing things so that if a bomb explodes then my children won't get hurt.'"

How the invaders must laugh.

I’ve been in the south and central portion of Sweden. “Bombs, shootings” would have been found only in a movie in Sweden when I was there. Swedes are definitely not violent people.

So what happened? When I was there, there was a lot of immigration from communist block countries. No crime. No bombs. No rapes. No shootings. What happened?

Sweden welcomed people from countries with a pre-civilization way of life. People who did not know the meaning of culture. They multiplied, unable to assimilate into a culture that is poles apart from their pre-cambrian savagery.

Now there are parts of Sweden that resemble parts of Syria.

Went to Copenhagen for Christmas a few years ago. Took the train to Malmo and didn’t dare get off. Took the next train back to Copenhagen.

No Muslim should assimilate into any Infidel culture.

Assimilating into a non Muslim culture is the equivalent of giving Allah the finger, and saying I am more interested in worldly things than doing what Allah wants done; which is to subjugate ,convert or kill any non-Muslim on the planet. -Tom
