The rate of foreigners in Swiss prisons has remained relatively stable over the last 10 years, but the overall number of prisoners has also jumped significantly.

many of those arrested and imprisoned are non-EU nationals.

In 2020, the greatest share of foreigners in Swiss prisons were Algerians. In second place were Romanians.

In Germany, over half of the prison population is made up of foreigners, and they are costing German taxpayers nearly €2 billion per year.

...

German states, half the prison population is now made up of foreigners.

🔺Germany spends €1.8 billion a year on its exploding foreign prison population, out of a total of €4.1 billion.

🔺Foreign national prisoners are mostly from Turkey, Syria, Afghanistan, Romania, Algeria, Morocco, and Poland.

🔺The states with the most foreign prisoners are Hamburg (57.8%) and Berlin (56.4%).

Defund the police and make Switzerland a sanctuary country. That will help their crime stats.

The solution is simple. Import more female troublemakers to balance things out.

Why do I have to think of everything?

Their plan is to quit jailing Muslims and start jailing the “Far Right” in places like Germany. They will create “Brownshirt Brigades” to keep people in line.

How do they know they’re men? Define men. What are their pronouns?

“Foreign national prisoners are mostly from Turkey, Syria, Afghanistan, Romania, Algeria, Morocco, and Poland.”

What could most of the people from these countries have in common? 5 out of 7 are 95% or more Muslim countries. The Romanian’s are probably mostly Gypsies. The Polish I guess are just dumb Polocks.

FYI, I am 1/4 Polish too.

The US needs to catch up...we only have 20-25% of federal prisoners as foreign nationals.

Algerians -- Muslims
"Romanians" -- Gypsies by way of Romania

And these are the very reasonable accommodations they get when they go to prison in Switzerland... Looks more like a dorm room, than a prison cell.

67% of the people in American jails are patriotic Americans that the government despises and has locked up as political prisoners who are tortured everyday with far-left “wokism” and Tater Swuft, Megan the Donkey and Beyonce Kindergarten rock played throughout the prison on number 11.
