Teens Roam Streets With Rifles As Crime Swamps Sweden
The Times (UK) ^ | 1-21-2018 | Bojan Pancevski, Malmo

Stabbed in the neck by an asylum seeker

The blast was so powerful that it shook windows a mile away. Ahmad’s first thought was that someone had thrown yet another bomb at the police.

He was right. On Wednesday night an explosive device was hurled at the police station in Rosengard, a troubled area of Malmo, Sweden’s third largest city.

Attacks on the police are increasingly frequent. Rosengard’s force works from a black fortress of reinforced concrete with narrow windows and a 10ft-high electric fence.

“I knew it was a bomb again,” said Ahmad, 53, who lives in the area with his wife and their four teenage children.

Sweden is among the world’s safest, richest and best-run countries enjoying steady growth and rising employment. But it has been experiencing an unprecedented surge of bombings and sexual assaults.

In a country of 10m people, more than 320 shootings and dozens of bombings were reported in 2017, along with more than 110 murders and 7,226 rapes — a 10% increase on 2016. More than 36% of young Swedish women say they feel unsafe at night.

The authorities have admitted they are unable to investigate rape cases immediately because the resources are focused on gang crime. “We are forced to choose between two evils,” the police said.

The crime surge is mainly confined to so-called “areas of social exclusion”, a code for neighbourhoods such as Rosengard that are predominantly populated by immigrants. They are not classic ghettos — the infrastructure and services are better than in areas of central London — but these communities are plagued by high crime rates and unemployment.

In Malmo, where a fifth of the 340,000 inhabitants are under 18, children as young as 14 roam the streets with Kalashnikov assault rifles and bulletproof vests.

“Our government declared itself the world’s first feminist government, yet they have quietly abandoned women,” Neuding said. “There is mounting evidence that large-scale migration of men from extremely patriarchal cultures is limiting women’s freedom.”

Huh. Cutesy choice of words.

I'd post a related cartoon on the topic from Merrie Olde England, but I'd get banned.

Congratulations.

I have a special place in my heart for Sweden because it’s the first European country I ever visited.

"“Our government declared itself the world’s first feminist government, yet they have quietly abandoned women.”

The feminism of left-wing women was/is never more than a neurotic hatred for the heterosexual men of western societies. They rant and rave against Trump but kowtow and bow to Muslim misogynists:

Teens Roam Streets With Rifles As Crime Swamps Sweden

THREAD REJECTED! unread...
Incompetent reporting.

Even in an excerpt, it should be clearly reported if the armed teens are Swede defenders or koranimal savage attackers.

The Swedes are about to learn this is still an uncivilized world, and if a people become too civilized to do what’s necessary to survive in an uncivilized world, they’re not going to survive.

Swede defenders? Such people don’t exist. These armed teens are all peaceful, misunderstood immigrants. And they will eventually assimilate into Swedish society (sometime around never).

From the article: “The army may be called in to halt a gang surge in immigrant areas.”

“A Swede may be given a license to own up to six hunting rifles, ten pistols or a combination of eight rifles and pistols.”
