Yes, we know what the statistics say. The problem is that you did not read your own sources.
Go back and read the section on "reported offenses" at the BRA link.
See anything important there that completely changes the validity of your narrative?
Nope.
Are you referring to the change in definition occured in 2006 but magically didn't start effecting numbers until 2012?
Makes sense.
In the Swedish system, individual reports regarding a great number of offences may affect and give rise to variations in the statistic. For instance, when a single case is reported that turns out to involve hundreds or even thousands of instances of offences committed against an individual over the course of many years, every single incident is recorded as an offence in the year it was reported. It is also important to remember that non-reporting is particularly extensive for sex offences and changes in the inclination to report can affect the number of rapes in the statistic.

I feel that PC culture and not wanting to appear Islamophobic...
I was waiting for the punchline,.You were very careful not to allude to Islam but _just_couldn't_help_yourself, huh.
Shame shame, you just couldn't 'add up' all the protest was about "moving an embassy" , either.
So lets start an "Islamaphobic gang rape thread" to refresh the hate.
I read right thru you, bigot.

Yes that's always been the case.
So why the spike from 2005 until now?
In 2016, a total of 20,300 sex offences were reported; this is a 12 per cent increase as compared with 2015. The number of rapes reported to police increased by 13 per cent to 6,720 between 2015 and 2016. The number of reported rape offences has increased over the last ten years (2006-2015). The increase can be partially explained by the entry into force of new sex offence legislation on 1 April 2005. This legislation entails, among other things, that certain acts which were previously classified as sexual exploitation are now classified as rape. The effect of the statutory change appeared in the statistics such that the number of reported offences in respect of sexual coercion and exploitation declined in the years immediately following the statutory change while the number of reported rapes increased. As from 1 July 2013, the sex offence legislation was again made tougher; among other things rape was expanded to include cases where the victim reacts passively. In the Swedish system, individual reports regarding a great number of offences may affect and give rise to variations in the statistic. For instance, when a single case is reported that turns out to involve hundreds or even thousands of instances of offences committed against an individual over the course of many years, every single incident is recorded as an offence in the year it was reported. It is also important to remember that non-reporting is particularly extensive for sex offences and changes in the inclination to report can affect the number of rapes in the statistic.

You are one of the m91st racist people I had seen in ats.
Remember, you feel white farmers in Africa should be locked out based solely on their skin color.
So I will take your insult with a grain of salt.

Apologize to Islam, not me. Then go home, Imperialist.
The Middle East is none of (y)our goddamn business.
So although this may explain why Sweden's numbers are difficult to compare to other countries, it does not explain why the number of incidents have almost doubled in Sweden since 2005.

Wow you guys are desperate to ignore reality.
The definition changes in 2006.
Yet for 6 years, there was no relative increase in reported sexual assaults.
In 2013 the definition of RAPE was expanded again.
This may explain some increases in RAPE charges.
However, the numbers we are discussing are sexual assault.
That includes rape, and other crimes such as sexual touching, exploitation, etc.
So some crimes such as sexual exploitation may have decreased because they are now considered rape, and raped would have sent up.
But both of these crimes were always considered sexual assualts, hence it would have no effect on the total number of those.
The second claim is that one incident can be counted as many if the same person did it over and over again.
This has been the case in Sweden for years.
So although this may explain why Sweden's numbers are difficult to compare to other countries, it does not explain why the number of incidents have almost doubled in Sweden since 2005.
The fact is sexual assaults have doubled since 2005,
and you and other people do not care at all for the increases dangers to these victims.
You are more than happy to ignore the problem and allow more victims to have to suffer, because you need to be politically correct.

sigh. If you could only understand. This battle has been going for millenia. White culture is shemite culture. Children of Shem. Descendants of Shem. Dude, white culture is in almost every highland. We are builders. We went to places where nobody else wanted because the environment was too harsh for most but it allowed us to go and live amongst ourselves in peace and reap our rewards for hard work. It was a natural selection that it was white cultures that built the US. Who else would have done it? The problem is this. You can literally cross breed us out of existance. And it is obvious white numbers in white cultures are rapidly decreasing. It looks planned, does it not?

And what exactly is "white culture?" The alt-right constantly use that hilarious concept as a dogwhistle for white supremacy, and it never gets less funny. Culture isn't based on skin colour.

Wait Sweden is in the Middle East?
Oh that's right, you just hate white people everywhere, so you wouldn't mind some white people being victims of sexual assault.

Lol, I love when people use the word bigot to attempt to disqualify the opinions of others. The irony makes me laugh and laugh.
Discrimination against others religion and culture is bigotry. Thats a nice word for hatred.
