If any of your ancestors were immigrants, then you should support open-borders?

Is that really what you're saying? Because I despise that idiotic argument.


I was going to discuss how I was part Cherokee, but why waste my time with someone like you? You don't actually care. And even if I was 100% Cherokee, you wouldn't care. And even if the Native-Americans overwhelmingly opposed immigration(and they do), you wouldn't care.


So what exactly is your point?

Yep. For now, Sweden has these immigrants mostly confined to ghettoes of immigrants......probably much nicer and cleaner than ghettoes in the US, but nonetheless only around 500 of these people have found employment. The rest are living on very small govt handouts.

Sooner or later they will spill over into the rest of the country occupied by natural born Swedes. Probably not going to be a pretty thing when that happens. Especially, when so many of them are youngish males which is the demographic most likely to turn to crime in any country.

Exactly. And really, when have we turned immigrant doctors away. Almost all my doctors are immigrants that had no problem entering the country legally.

Again with this argument!?! If the argument is that these are nice people but they'll go join ISIS if we aren't nice to them, then who would want them coming here? Tell me, if you felt marginalized or discriminated against, would it make you consider joining a group that cuts people's heads off on video and put them up on pikes, burns and buries people alive (including children), keeps women as sex slaves, and expects members to turn themselves into human bombs? Does that sound reasonable to you?

The Swedish police officials complained that the OP's event was 'selectively edited' in the United States. That the real event was not as it was represented here by some TV channels and websites.

I tend to take the words from the horse's mouth to be more true than when run through some of the filters in our news agencies. Especially since all Swedes speak pretty fluent English. They know what's going on here.

The media and the Swedish government jumped all over the comment and claimed he said it was a terror attack when he said no such thing, and now all eyes and the media are suddenly reporting about incidents in Sweden. If they would have just ignored him or not taken his comment out of context, we wouldn't have even heard about these riots over here.

The Swedish police are under a gag order imposed by their own government. You need to do more research before you listen to a horse who had his tongue ripped out. It's pretty common knowledge about the muzzle Sweden has put on its press and its public servants.

Have CNN or MSNBC reported this? If not, why not?

The blackout happened after the stuff was said by the cops.

The Swedes, unlike us, don't like to chew stuff like this over forever and ever. They don't allow one controversy to run on so long it sours and gets all corrupted over time. They just prefer to close down the discussion after a short time when something is as trivial as this is.
That's because most Swedes are native born, and their culture is much different because of it. the same is true in Japan and many other nations.

What really happened is Donald Trump didn't know what he was talking about once more.

Sweden hasn't had much trouble with Muslims- Denmark is the country that's recently had troubles.

Trump doesn't know the difference between Denmark and Sweden. He probably doesn't know the differences between Norway and Sweden, and Finland and Sweden, too. In his simpleton's mind, they are all just the same.

He may think they are all Sweden. But they aren't. That's what you get when you elect a president who can't read.

Sweden has its own problems with censorship. When the mass murderer convicted of slaughtering over 70 adults and mostly children, the murderer WON a human rights lawsuit saying his rights were violated. How insulting is that to the slain families and of course Sweden didn't announce this ridiculous legal loss to the world.

Sweden is on the downhill where a bottle of Jack Daniels is taxed over 400% to an equivalent of $60 for a liter. Let the country wallow in socialism and neutrality.
