We don't know yet what background the drug dealer has, it hasn't been said if they are a native or not (because it won't be said while investigations are on-going because Sweden has due-process and whatnot) but, like I said before, drug dealers are rarely newcomers to a country. The rioters could be anybody, most likely unemployed youths of any background, immigrant and native, that group of people love rioting whatever nationality they are.

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.
That was Norway. Perhaps a little googling before you post might be a good idea.

Personally, I don't judge the quality of a country by the price of its alcohol but if that's what's most important to you maybe move to Russia, its very cheap there.

Take off your blinders. One doesn't have to dig very deep to learn that Sweden is having a surge in crime, including rape, since the surge in Muslim 'refugees.' Do you think their own people would lie? The statistics revealed come from the Swedish government. They are their own statistics, and they show a nearly 70% increase since 2014.

Why is it so hard for some people to accept that this is a problem? There is a vast difference in culture that creates a huge problem when the immigrant population is not willing to assimilate. They create enclaves of their native culture, where citizens of the host country are not welcome, and dare not enter. Worse, their native culture believes it is acceptable to rape "infidel women" of the host country. This is what has been happening in every country that is accepting these migrants, including the United States, where there have been reports of 'refugee' men harassing women in nearby neighborhoods, shouting epithets and threatening to rape them (I'm not making this up ...this was a published story from a U.S. local news source in a U.S. city recently).

Not only this, but most of the so-called 'refugees' are unemployable, with no skills and little education. This creates a burden on the native population who must foot the bill for the new arrivals.

Watch this CNN report to see what I'm talking about.

I don't know who this guy "Lemon" is, but he appears to be a real dumbass. He isn't listening, and he is ignoring the facts. And why is he referencing U.S. State Department figures with regard to Sweden? Ami has the facts from the Swedish government, yet he is claiming they are incorrect?

This is why CNN is "fake news."

How many times do people need to point out what the statistics actually show to you? No noticeable difference in crime since 2005 - crime is something that needs to be looked at longer term, not year to year. Can you point to statistics that show a 70% increase? I mean the actual source, not a youtube video.

Nope. There were huge riots in Greece against Obama when he visited last fall. It was not carried on the nightly news on any of the major broadcast networks. They completely ignored the story.

I would think you would get tired of being so incredibly wrong day after day. Then again, you must have believed that Hillary would win too.

And apparently Sweden changed its laws; I was told the following on another forum:

"The apparent rise in rapes is because Sweden changed its laws to widen the definition of rape and to count every single instance of abuse as a separate crime. This was done, with apparent success, to encourage women to report sexual assault. This happened in 2005, which explains his "big jump."

If that's the case, could also be that simply more people are now reporting sexual assaults and not because there has actually been a rise?

Its very true, and that's why there is this unwritten rule in politics regarding accepting results and not being a sore loser.
You damage your political future if you don't respect the electorate.
Usually the future of the sore loser candidate is damaged, but in this case its the entire party.
Democrats won't be wooing the swing voters in 2020.
