An increase in sexual assault from a previously stable rate of 1.0 percent of respondents from 2005-2014 to 1.7 percent in 2015, in a crime type that is the LEAST reported type by victims(9% report) and with a sample size of 11,900 people in a nation of almost 10 million. That is well on the way to a doubling of the rate, and in a survey of a little over one tenth of one percent of the population, about a crime that is 91% unreported by Swedish government statistics.

Shall we continue? I apologize in advance for failing to include links to Huffington Post, CNN, Bloomberg, or The Daily Beast. Of course, I passed up links from Fox News, Breitbart, WND, and Infowars, for much the same reasons. Fair and balanced, right?
So when did you first become convinced that Sweden is a terrorist infested hellhole? Was it when Trump claimed brought it up? Trump's comments about Sweden confuse Swedes | Boston 25 News
Maybe you should read up on Sweden in the City-Data Europe forums
Is Sweden safe for single lone women to visit?

Any dangerous locations within Sweden that I should not visit?

There are plenty of other threads there and if you have specific questions look for a C-D frequent poster who calls himself 'bigswede'
cheers!

Thanks. I needed an object lesson for Nor', and figured a few solid internet links would bring it forth. Bingo! News and government statistics from the country in question, answered with anecdotal responses from an internet forum. Thanks again.

Nor? Pay attention here...

They were supposed to get 600k signatures. And most politicians in the state don't even support it.
Yeah!, there's still a few left with the ability to connect their brain cells, enough to Question complete nonsense, & make a few right decisions. Now let's pray the rest of the country will do the same.
Starting
1. with Supporting every preborn's Right-to-life,
2. with supporting people to control & direct their own Health & care
3. with people's Right to self-govern, & self-management
4. with people's Right to grow their own food as able.
amongst other human rights...

The species appears to have bred rapidly under various rocks and in the sewers of large cities across the nation, and
has infected the educational and judicial systems, as well as governments, of nations around the world.
They strut about, puking false narratives and ****ting up the place, all while crowing endlessly about their moral superiority and the utter stupidity and regressiveness of those who do not share their myopic world view.
You will do well to steer clear of the species, as debating them is akin to wrestling pigs. And we know what happens there, don't we?
Yes, NEVER try to teach a pig to sing. You waste your time, & frustrate the pig.

This all started with me mentioning that California might turn into Scandinavia. You chimed in with a rant about Sweden's rape rate and immigration, and that it makes them all "edgy, unstable, and frightened". First of all, Sweden is not Scandinavia. Most of Scandinavia has a low rape incidence. *All* Scandinavian countries score higher for happiness than the US.

The rape part is true regarding Sweden, and immigration is likely responsible, but what the hell does that have to do with CA seceding, or anything else? Do you believe that immigration is a necessary result of your so called "socialism"?

If California does secede, can we make Hillary Clinton their president? Everyone wins.

The facts are the opposite of what you assume.

CA is one of the few states that pays more in federal tax than they receive in benefits.




CA also ranks quite low for the % on foodstamps:





If you care about the truth, then I highly suggest looking stuff up for yourself, instead of plugging into whatever fake news is feeding you lies.
