    This is what happens when you put irresponsible morons in charge.
    Funnily enough, considering it's always paraded as an example of how socialism works by ignorant parrots, Sweden's more recent prosperity was actually a result of reforms that came about as a result of the need to curtail the out-of-control welfare spending buildup between the 1970s and 1990s, which unsurprisingly coincided with its weakest period of prosperity during the entire past century.

    So things actually happened the opposite way to that which the parrots portrayed.

    Sweden is a consensus heavy society. Once multiculturalism became hip, Sweden never stood a chance

    To be fair they do exaggerate: i saw a guy call the entirety of Birmingham a 'no-go area'



    I mean, I understand that no-one really wants to go to Birmingham, but it's far from being true that even most of Birmingham is like parts of Bradford (which really are like that).
    True, I am working with refugees in a lot of these areas, even had to do some research for a paper there not too long ago. It is all exaggerated. Sure, I'd never in a million years live or hangout there but I mean, calling it a no go zone were even the police is afraid to enter is a joke.

    Why are you just quoting wacko incredibly biased websites and claiming it as fact in your headlines? It's incredibly irresponsible. And a guy like Dresta who claims to be a scholar has no issues with these sources. Just goes to show you how hypocritical he is when specific views align with his own.

    I am also critical of the overly liberal way of accepting refugees by the hordes in Europe but this yellow journalism is fkin bs and leads to irrational hate rather than informed opinions.

    So please stop being a fkin jackass for once in your life if you care about a cause do it the right way instead of half assing it like the rest of your miserable existence.

    Says someone who thinks he shouldn't have the freedom to own a gun and that his country should be flooded with hostile uncivilized foreigners because not doing so would be "racist"...


    Who's manipulated by the media?

    It's not about not being racist its about helping fellow humans.

    What did you do to be born in America?


    And I especially don't have a problem with it when 90% of the immigrants are great people. Every country and society has bad apples. Ain't gonna turn my back on the world because of that



    And why would owning an gun be legal? Seems idiotic. Asking for people to get shot, either by accident or on purpose. And even here, if you really want to shoot someone, you'll get to shoot someone. But the government doesn't have to make it easier for you

    The number of home invasions in Norway is probably close to zero

    No-go zones sounds like a term taken out of context.. The part about police being scared of going there is obvious bullshit
    So the Police Inspector is an evil liar who made it all up?


    The only naive one here is you.
