One side wants compassion, the other a gestapo-esque clean up..

It's something people are afraid to touch.
Or we could keep it clean and decent like other places . We don't have to resort to gestapo or nazi tactics .

No, Sweden does not have terrible problems because of migrants.

What’s more, the Swedish police do not collect information on the ethnicity, religion, or race of perpetrators or victims of crime, which means there’s no evidence for claims that Muslim immigrants are committing crimes in record numbers. Nor is there any evidence to support the claim that Swedish authorities are manipulating the statistics, as the producer of the video alleges."

I have family who live in Sweden, they have confirmed what I posted above. There are Swedish posters on these forums, find them and ask them rather than continuing to parrot crap from Breitbart and InfoWars

Fake news. There are actually these newly created "safe spaces" for females in Northern Europe so indigenous females can hide and be protected from immigrant rape gangs who are from certain cultures where women are considered chattel.

Gated communities just perpetuate the SJW Garcetti/Liberty Hill mentality. People are shielded from the bad things in the world so they get all airy-fairy and Eloi-esque.

Yes, crime in Sweden has gone up, but is still pretty low. Malmo by Swedish standards is a high crime city but crime is about on the same level as Salt Lake City and Seattle (or, to use California examples, Pasadena and Costa Mesa). Stockholm crime is on the same level as Newport Beach, Santa Rosa, and Scottsdale.

There is no doubt that Sweden has some very deep problems with Muslim immigration but it is not that dangerous by US standards.

Russia Times admittedly deals heavily in propaganda, it's true. However, so does our own media although perhaps not quite to the same levels. In any case, just because RT has a political agenda of showing how misguided it's formal historical rival Sweden is, that does not render its many stories on this topic, fake. In fact, if anything, RT has some street cred as it has been the only one to focus on Geert Wilders, the UKIP, Nigel Farage, AfD, and many other issues that our media barely touch or avoid altogether.

Oh, and one more thing. Stop flattering yourself thinking I only get my news from Breitbart and Infowars. I speak several languages and get my news from many sources.

Yeah I've been in some of those gated communities and wondered how many voted Garcetti or Clinton .

Almost doesn't seem right they can vote on things that don't affect them really . They have their own parks etc in those communities so no worry about homeless exposing themselves to your kids or dealing with human poop or pee on the grass ..

Gated communities aren't super common in city of L.A it seems .

There are a bunch in Calabasas but it's an independent city .
