Sweden’s police chief unveiled the force’s latest weapon in the fight against sexual assault: wristbands reading “Don’t touch me”.

The press release announced that police intend to equip young women with wristbands with the slogan “don’t touch me”. This will happen over the summer, at festivals and other events for young people. “By wearing these wristbands,” Sweden’s police chief said, “young women will be able to make a stand”.
It is unclear how effective the wristbands, which read “don’t touch me” in Swedish, will be in preventing attacks, as the majority of sex attack perpetrators are thought to be recent migrants who are unlikely to be able to read them.
Mr. Eliasson suggested that by wearing these accessories, women would also be able to “draw attention to the issue [of sexual assault], and urge those affected to report”.

Sexual assaults were reported at Swedish music festivals Arvika in 2006 and 2010, Emmaboda in 2014 and Bråvalla in 2015. Police were accused of covering up the attacks.
Breitbart London reported that Stockholm Council and festival organisers in the country knew sex attacks by migrants were endangering women, but thought it would have been “irresponsible” to speak out about the trend.

I’m not sure they will be as effective as the “rape” whistles ... who is going to hold out their arm so a semi-literate slow reading, lip moving heathen can guess at the intended message ... and one not approved by Mad Mo!
But hey, magic wristbands...worked for Wonder Woman, right?
Ask any so called man in Europe how he feels about the raping of women and children.....he will just shrug and walk away.
Swiss Army Knives,,,
Yeah, that always worked for Me!
That is the funniest thing I have seen in a long time!
That is a Keeper !
Just another derivation of those extremely effective Liberal “Gun Free” Zone signs ..... Won’t stop Jack Sh!t.
Even if they could read them, it wouldn’t stop them. How pathetic!
Oh God, I know it’s so wrong of me to laugh, but really?
Can these fake refugees read? I’m sooooo confused.
Sad sad sad world we live in.
Right up there with the Gerald Ford WIN button and #bringbackourgirls.
This is stupid
Does that mean that any female that forgot to wear them is advertising: Yes, Touch me! ???
That’s what those animals are going to say in their defense at their rape trial (if they are ever arrested)
Hurts So Good !
They would be very effective, if worn wrapped around the handle of a 50,000V taser or a handgun...
The magic mittens seem slightly more powerful than the wristbands, but then I haven’t seen the wristbands demonstrated yet. ;-)
Whoa! That is intimidating. But I don’t think one could wear pantyhose with that.
yeah, those teeth would prolly do a number on them... 8^)
