Far right populists at work.
Trading freedom for security already.
Ah yes, it's far right populists that caused this and not the gangs who killed two people in shootings and another in an explosion in Stockholm just two days ago... lmao
And yeah, these are unintegrated migrants imported from 2015 onwards, who failed to integrate and now run massively violent, warring gangs that are currently responsible for an unprecedented amount of violent deaths in Sweden's largest cities. Putting our heads in the sand regarding real issues for fear of being racist is what got us here in the first place.
Look at the data, and act, just as Sweden's LEFT-WING government is CURRENTLY doing because the situation has now become untenable.
Two people died? Two whole people?? OH MY GOD! We need to lock down everything right away! Oh my God 2 people died!
Seems like a bit of an overreaction to me.
3 people in 12 hours in one city was their last record. Gang-related killings have been steadily rising for years and they've currently reached a boiling point where dozens of people die every month just in Stockholm.
Dozens of people die in New York every week too. We don't call in the army.
Whataboutism be like
"Oh yeah, well, my uncle killed an entire playground full of kids. As retribution for another uncle who detonated a nuclear bomb on a factory making free antibiotics for the poor. Why just yesterday a bunch of hippies in Portland burned down a church full of worshippers because they don't pray to trees. I don't hear any Army choppers. This is America. We protect our own. Mostly. Sort of. We're a young country, still workshopping as it goes." tl;dr Dirty hippies are dangerous if you don't pray to trees.
