Once-peaceful Sweden Is Now the Gun-violence Capital of Europe

An inconvenient truth.


Sweden has long been known as a land of the midnight sun. But now it may be more like High Noon, with a new study showing that an increase in deadly shootings has made the Nordic nation the gun-violence capital of Europe.

“The increase in fatal shootings is largely limited to the 20 to 29 age group of young men,” adds Breitbart. “Between zero and four men of this age bracket are fatally shot, on average, per million people in other European countries. In Sweden, the figure is 18.”

“An analysis of the data also revealed that most young men lived in so-called ‘vulnerable areas’, with almost all coming from a migration background.”

“Vulnerable areas.” Well, as they say, them’s code words. The quoted term is a euphemism for dangerous, largely Muslim urban and sometimes suburban areas that may actually be “no-go zones”; these are neighborhoods in which civil law has broken down and to an extent been replaced by Sharia law and where authorities are often reluctant to tread for fear of violence.

Breitbart continues: “Despite the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic, Sweden saw a record 47 fatal shootings last year [in a population of 10 million], fulfilling predictions from November 2020 that the number would beat the previous year’s record.”

“Most of the fatal shootings took place in and around Stockholm,” the news organ also informs. “However, the multicultural city of Malmö saw a sharp decline, credited to the fact many of Malmö’s gang leaders were behind bars following the hacking of the encrypted chat service EncroChat, a communications tool used by criminals to organise illegal activity by European police forces.”

But Malmö is an outlier. As for Sweden in general, Håkan Jarborg, chief of police in Police Region South, contrasted the overall rise in shootings with the rest of Europe and said it was “unique.”

It wasn’t always like this, of course. Sweden once had safe streets to match its safe cars, and even in “the early 2000s, Sweden was at the bottom when it came to lethal shootings in Europe,” SVT Nyheter also tells us. “Since 2013, however, violence has increased sharply and since 2018, Sweden has occupied the top spot.”

It’s perhaps tops in rationalization, too. As to this, SVT Nyheter also quotes the aforementioned Hradilova-Selin as stating, “We do not know the reason why fatal gun violence has increased the most in Sweden.”

Yes, it’s a mystery — if you’re Barney Fife. Try this on for size, however: Sweden has long had strict gun control, but doesn’t have strict immigration control. In fact, something else that happened in 2013 was that immigration “reached its highest level since records began with 115,845 people arriving in the country,” the Express reported in 2017. This was to a great extent, do note, immigration from Muslim countries.

How do you force a diverse foreign population to assimilate peacefully when the said population does not share your same values?

Between zero and four men of this age bracket

Well color me purple. 0 to 4 people shot? Is that because some people know to duck and cover?

Good question. MAGA dolts don't share American values any longer. Where should we deport you?

No. The US has not imported as high of a percentage of Muslims into their country.
