60 Minutes Australia finally aired its footage three weeks after an incident in which its film crew was attacked by a group of masked men in Sweden.
The crew was filming in the predominantly immigrant district of Rinkeby in the capital city of Stockholm. Immediately upon arriving they were confronted by a group of men in a car, who deliberately drove into the cameraman.
Lead correspondent Liz Hayes called the police, but even they were hesitant to follow them into the district. “I think it would be better if you go in without us,” a policeman bluntly tells Hayes.
At first things appear to be running smoothly, with the locals acting friendly towards the crew and giving their life stories. But after the police left, young men masking their faces ran up and began harassing them.
One of the men begins by throwing a large rock at the cameraman. The same man then kicks and throws a punch at the boom operator. A second man tries to rip a still photographer’s camera out of his hands.
The confrontation only ends when another migrant intervenes, driving his mobility scooter into the ringleader.

Props to the one migrant who intervened.
One has to wonder who was the first person who said, “Gee, Sweden is such a wonderful place! It’s peaceful and prosperous! You know what we need? A bunch of retrograde Islamic scumbags who hate everything we are and everything we’ve built!”
Formerly happiest country on earth.
Good job.
I’ve often felt like punching a 60 min crew.
(just kidding, or am I? No, I’m telling a joke. Sorta.)
Yeah, but I wonder what happened to him when the press left. I hope they at least said, "Thank you."
If they wanted to be treated like that they could have just gone to a Black Lives Matter riot.
Or run the gauntlet into a Trump rally.
Fifth-column leftist media hacks vs. islamoterrorists.
Oh, dear. How does one slice the sympathy pie in this case?
Sorry, I can’t get my give-a-sh!+ started.
So can I infer that the muzzies must have the same opinion of 60 Minutes as me?
Bwaaaaaaaaahahaha. “Religion of peace”. Bwaaaaaahahaha.
