‘It’s a really frightening place’: Tucker Carlson interviews U.K. journalist about Sweden and crime – twitchy.com

Well what could go wrong when you invite warring factions into your country and look the other way when they are still trying to kill each other plus you if you get in the way?

This woman is a journalist in the Steve Bannon vein.

I am sure the Swedish themselves are better people to ask regarding the situation in their own country rather than a tabloid columist from the UK.

What if she actually had visited Sweden and not just a crappy Stockholm suburb?
I would probably have the same opinion about the US if I visited a crime-ridden neighbourhood.

Conservatives are afraid of their own shadows. Maybe she should be reporting from El Salvador and see what a really frightening place actually is.

So visiting the capital of Sweden isn't visiting Sweden? And they claim the swedes have a great education system.

Yes if you visited any liberal urban paradise in the US you would have the same opinion, that's where most of the crime happens.

It is the same as visiting London and go straight to Peckham or Edmonton, two of the worst areas of the city, and generalize based on a few crappy suburban areas (often quite far away from the city center). Forget about Buckingham Palace and the London Eye. This country is just awful.
