you are a prime example of one of those ignorant Americans I speak of.
you won't believe what a swede tells you but you will believe whatever the news in your country tells you. you're being brainwashed. as I've said I'm from the very city you speak of as is my mother and sister and my family back hundreds of years.
I wish you could come here and you'd be amazed just how wrong it's being portrayed and how safe it is relative to the rest of the world. but I'm tired of this discussion you won't believe me regardless of what I say instead you will point to a useless statistic that reflects the changes of the whole world and the EU and not malmö.
In the case of the murdered 16-year-old, for example, racist threats have been directed at pupils at his school on social media next to a picture of the boy lying dead on the ground. "They are scared. They are terrified and are wondering who's going to be shot next," a school principal told Sydsvenskan earlier this month.
The boy's father, who moved with his family from Iraq to Sweden when Ahmed was seven years old, told newspaper Sydsvenskan that his son had wanted to become a doctor. "We fled war and misery to find a safe place. And then this happens," he said
Malmö police are currently investigating eleven murders and eighty attempted murder. Add to that other crimes of violence, beatings, rapes, thefts and frauds. Stefan Sinteus We have in Malmö an upward spiral of large dimensions. Malmö police are currently investigating eleven murders and eighty attempted murder. Add to that other crimes of violence, beatings, rapes, thefts and frauds. It does, of course, that the police in Malmö is an extremely strained.
To manage the many serious crimes, we've made a local and a regional effort, where we focus all available resources in the region to investigate and deal with the situation we are currently in. This has resulted in that we now have over 130 employees who work exclusively with investigating these serious offenses in special investigative organizations and from the police special methodology for serious crimes. Many of the investigators working in parallel with a number of cases, which have historically proven to be beneficial in many investigations. Our employees are extremely dedicated and competent, and I know that every day they do their utmost to find and refer suspected perpetrators accountable for serious crimes affecting the citizens of our city.
We have also received reinforcement from the national direction. Several employees from the Police National Operations Department (NOA) came to Malmö during the last week, and additional employees are expected this week. There is a widespread understanding that we need strengthening in Malmö in the position we are in. Even if the situation is serious and the situation is by no means optimal, do this together anyway that I, as head of the police district of Malmö, feel a great trust and confidence that police will be able to handle the situation. In both the recent murder of 16-årigen as the attempted murder of 18-year-old on Saturday evening, we could with adequate resources to implement all the initial investigative measures that must be implemented in close connection with the crime. With the addition of employees from both the region and the rest of the country that joined later in the week we have the resources needed to handle even these investigations, then at the other serious violent criminal. The focus for the future of policing the South region's long-term resource reinforce the skills to investigate deadly force. Our priority is clear: we will work toward the coarse violence and with our investigative activities.
To reverse the trend, we will work vigorously with this in the spring in several different ways. It is not the individual police officer who chooses what he or she wants to work with, we have managers who oversee and manage the business and its employees. I have full confidence that they are doing this based on the given priorities, of which the most serious violent crime is top of the list. I can assure you that the police in Malmö are doing everything we can to suspected perpetrators to be held accountable. But we can not do it on their own. We depend on you, and your witness statements, in order to solve these violent crimes. Therefore I appeal now to you: help us. Help us to overcome the problems. Partner with us. Let's make Malmö a safe and secure city for children, adolescents and adults. Stefan Sintéus Chief Constable, head of the police district Malmo

unchecked border madness?
wtf?
just recently a friend of my mother's, a Swedish woman in the 60s went into Copenhagen.
upon return she was stopped because her Id card had expired. she couldn't come into the country. her son had to go to Copenhagen airport where she was stuck and give her her passport for her to come in.
this happened to a POLICE OFFICER as well. he also didn't have his id with him for whatever reason. but he could prove he was a police officer in sweden but it didn't matter. he also had to had his passport given to him for him to enter.
i recently went into the shopping mall in Hyllie, the 2nd stop after Copenhagen airport when you come by train and they have id checks there.
i was done shopping and had to show id for me to enter the train going into malmö.
unchecked borders? are you even serious right now?
as far as malmö being a ghetto... wow. i don't even know how to respond to that. it's a beautiful city, a clean and pretty city, glorious parks, glorious city centre for shopping, glorious residential areas, really really rich ones - with villas and mansions that is some of the most lavish ive seen - with literally THREE small areas of the city in which me, a born native, don't desire to go at night. in the day time it's STILL MILES AND MILES away from being anything close to a ghetto.
and those three areas is lindängen, seved, and rosengård. at day time they look like completely average residential areas.
you sir, are being brainwashed and you don't even have a clue.

i care in the means of defending myself against accusations and personal attacks.
you tried to switch it all up - disregarding ANY and ALL information that i have first-hand of my experiences in MY hometown of Malmö simply because i was wrong in assuming you was American.
you made a big deal about that, and ONLY that, disregarding everything else ive said.
that to me is pathetic and that is something i do care about.
but as far as your views on my city i honestly couldnt care less, i live here, and have been for 34 years you havnt. who knows more about my city - you or me ? its pretty obvious. regardless of me falsely assuming you are american or not. (and that doesnt even matter. why make a big deal about that, instead of actually discussing my city)
and if you want to think im no longer credible because of that - I COULDNT CARE LESS! i dont care about you what so ever. the only reason i even reply to your comments is to let the other members know you are wrong .and if you want to get hung up on me assuming you are american (like its even a big deal ??) thats on YOU! and you are a sad sad person to try this tactic and you know it.
trying to assassinate my character cause i assumed you were american and you are not. lol. give me a break. when youre ready to talk about the issue at hnd you can do that but if you want to talk about my credibility then that is just pathetic, and everyone can see that.

No argument from me. The situation in Europe has been ongoing and appears to be increasing. I think some of these countries tried to be as tolerant as possible but it has only worsened.
I like the action from Trump

It really sucks because i have friends also that are saying "oh it's so sad! It's so racist! We need to do something!" But when presented with evidence like THIS they don't want to see it!! It's not about being RACIST, it's about protecting OURSELVES from possible threats which obviously include MIGRANT IMMIGRATION.
