The government just covered up the rocks so you didn't see them hit you...

Can confirm that I've had no rocks thrown at me, or men grope me, in any of the immigrant neighbourhoods I've wandered. I have, however, spent an interesting evening with a Christian refugee and a Muslim refugee who were living in the same flat, drinking and smoking hookah together.

I am not subscribing either side. I think there are some issues which is expected with the scale. Just curious about reason behind these no go zones.

There are NO "no go zones" in Sweden.....Learn to fact check, as there is a lot of misinformation online.

55 no go zones are mentioned by this dude giving interviews multiple times and 60 minutes interview as well.
60 minutes is not a right wing organization. I haven't seen any body contradiction his no go zones statement so far. All those youtube videos mentioned no go zones are fake?

I loved it when Don Trump Junior went on CNN and absolutely destroyed them, he brought up the debate question leak.
I think he'll be President, but Ivanka will be first.

According to American news outlets such as Fox and Breitbart, there are supposedly "no go zones" where non-Muslims and police are not allowed to visit: its completely ridiculous and fear mongering nonsense. Many immigrant neighborhoods in Europe understandably have issues with poverty, but the people are generally friendly and "no go zones" are still safer than the average American city.

In London, immigrants actually outperform native Brits by a significant margin. Schools in migrant heavy areas of Birmingham and London consistently show higher test scores and students have better outcomes. It's known as the "London effect," and has been looked at extensively over the past decade. Youtube videos only project fear and Trump supporters unfortunately gobble it up.

Read for yourself.
