SWEDEN BURNING: Stockholm in flames as car fire epidemic rages in 'no-go' zone
The Express ^ | 12/01/2016 | By LIZZIE STROMME

The Scandinavian country has been plagued with arsonist thugs setting vehicles alight, with hundreds of cars burning out since 2015.

In 2016 alone, more than 70 cars have been destroyed as police struggle to combat the increasing violence and criminal activity in the famously liberal country.

The latest video shows three cars in Hallunda in southern Stockholm engulfed by flames as firefighters battle to put out the blaze.

Overnight Sunday another car was also reported to be burning out in the crime hotbed, which was heavily hit by arson attacks in 2015.

Hallunda was one of the cities which was placed on Sweden’s National Criminal Investigation Service’s list over “no-go” zones due to the police force’s increased lack of control over anti-social behaviour.

In February, Express.co.uk reported the Scandinavian country had seen a huge surge in crime since the start of the migrant crisis in Europe – with a rise in sex assaults, drug dealing and children carrying weapons.

At the time around 50 areas were put on a "blacklist" which are then divided into three categories from "risk areas" to "seriously vulnerable" as it was announced Stockholm had over 20 no-go areas where over 75,000 people live.

However, the figure was increased to 55 in September as the Swedish police force face a recruitment crisis, with on average three officers handing in their notice every day.

Hallunda, with a population with just over 14,000, was one of the areas where it was claimed violence was flourishing due to high immigration, low employment rates and bad living conditions.

In 2015 alone Sweden, with a population of 9.5million, received over 160,000 asylum applications, resulting in the country closing its internal borders despite being a member of the Schengen Area, in a desperate attempt to halt the migrant influx.

The report also said children aged 12 carry weapons for older criminals and 70 cars and buildings were set on fire in an arson spate last year.

The southern city of Malmo suffered a surge of violence over the summer, as almost a 100 car fires ripped through the country’s third-largest city.

In September, police said they believed the crimes were an act of revenge following a crackdown on organised crime in the city.

Officer Erik Jansåker said: “This, in my opinion, is criminal people who are [lashing out] because of our efforts to [crack down] on the serious organised crime.”

The fires, in addition to the unprecedented levels of crime and immigration, has lead to the police across the Scandinavian country pleading for the government to grant them more resources as the force struggles to adequately police the "no-go" areas.

In October, a shocking letter sent into VLT.se by a migrant claimed the spate of car fires were carried out by asylum seekers because "racist Swedes" treated them badly.

Police in Denmark are also struggling to stop the car fire attacks with more than 200 vehicles burning out since New Year's Eve.

70 cars in Sweden is comparable to 2,240 cars in the United States.

Enough to get people angered, but not an enormous economic shock.

It is really sad to watch Sweden committing suicide in front of our eyes.

The traitors running Sweden need to be expelled, by force if necessary. If voting doesn’t work, because a certain percentage of the population is continuing to vote for those traitors, then they are traitors as well, and need to be expelled along with the politicians.

In other words, Sweden needs a revolution and a civil war, and they shouldn’t stop until every lib politician, every lib voter, and every migrant has either been expelled or killed.

Surround the areas in question.

Let the non-Muslims leave.

Identify Muslims who were citizens before the refugees came along and let them get out.

Proceed in in force and round up every last refugee.

Place in detention camps for holding to await deportation to their place of origin.

Ban Sharia as a cult abusive to women and children that are violent to the presence of other faiths and go from there.

Sweden's next general election is not until September 2018.

They will either give the Swedish anti-immigrant party a majority, or go under.

If that happens in the United States, CNN would demand that more cars be burned to show solidarity and non-hatred for Muslims.

Bzzzt. Sorry Erik, wrong guess. Would you like to go for Double Jeopardy where the scores can really change?

It may have to get a lots worse before they come to their senses. Maybe one day some one like the equivalent of a Donald Trump appears on the scene and puts a stop to all asylum seeker crap. I am all for helping these people, but help them in their own country by means of education and technical assistance. But don’t bring them in to your home as just about all are afflicted with a contagious disease better known as (i)slam and this can be only cured on location. If they wise up and will see the light, so much better for them and eventually they may get somewhere. If not then let them fight it out amongst themselves, either swim or sink. Europeans had to polish their rough edges over time and advance and progress and no one from the African continent came to offer their help, but they worked it out. Over time you would think that realization sets in what works and what doesn’t and people reject what doesn’t. A good example were the last election here in the US, where enough sound minds prevailed and said enough is enough.

Someone tell me that the explosion of fires in the U.S. isn’t terrorism. Anyone?

Meanwhile, Sweden threatens action to stop Facebook 'hate and lies':
Alice Bah Kuhnke told the Expressen tabloid that she plans to invite Facebook's representatives in Sweden to discuss recent debate accusing the social media giant of enabling its users to use the platform to share fake news and hate speech without doing anything to clamp down on it.

"Facebook undeniably has great responsibility for its product and its platform. It has a responsibility for all the fantastic things there, but also for the hate and lies being spread there," she said.

"I am convinced that they don't want to be an arena for threats, hate and fake news."

Alice Bah Kuhnke's father is from Gambia (according to her wikipedia entry), which is 95% Muslim.

RE: What gets me is that there are still Swedish who see this, and yet still favor bringing more of these animals in.

I am beginning to understand where they got the term : “Stockholm Syndrome” from.

How do you spell relief from immigrant-caused car fires? Relief is spelled as:
D-E-P-O-R-T.
