No need to apologise. For the most part, we are all human here.

It's purposeful. If it were any other way, there'd be wailing and gnashing of teeth about bias from the usual suspects.

You can bet money that statistically, there is more violent crime in the entire world than exists in the US. There are statistics that show that the US is even low on the list of gun crimes compared to other countries in the world. Read up.

Is Sweden turning into a rape capital?

A festival in Stockholm on Saturday was the site of the rape of 2 juvenile girls. These two rapes are only some of at least a dozen reports of sexual assault at the festival. Both rapes were caught on public closed circuit cameras.

The definition of Rape in Sweden is somewhat different than other countries. This could lead individuals thinking that Sweden has problems
In 2005, Sweden broadened its definition of rape. The word ”rape” can since then be used to record acts which would be called assault or bodily harm in other countries, according to The Local. That led to an increase in the number of rapes reported in the country in the years following the law change.

Sweden: International comparison
See also: Rape in Sweden § Victim surveys
Widely differing legal systems, offence definitions, terminological variations, recording practices and statistical conventions makes any cross-national comparison on rape statistics difficult.

When you import bombers, you get more bombings.

There has been over a 40% increase in bombings and what Swedish police call "explosive incidents" in the first six months of 2019. There have been over 115 of these occurrences so far this year. In 2018, there were a total of 157 of these events, so the current numbers are reflecting a trend that may beat last year's total.

However, the National Forensic Center puts the numbers much higher. They report 255 occurrences in 2018 and 196 so far in 2019.

There have been reports in the international media that Sweden purposely hides crime stats that reflect on their migrant population. As a result of that, it's difficult to know the accuracy of their reports.

Some government agency spox attribute the increased number of explosions to stricter gun control policies. In other words, criminals are using explosives that are easier to get than guns to carry out their mayhem.

Toronto is on track to expect “hundreds” of more gang-related shootings before the end of the year, said Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders following a Saturday morning shooting in the city’s north end that injured four men.

“The unfortunate piece is that there will be more people that will be shot,” Saunders told reporters at a press conference.

He said gang activity is to blame for a recent spate of gun violence in the city, including Saturday’s shooting around 1 a.m. near Yorkdale Shopping Centre.

Saunders said over 30 gunshots were exchanged between two groups and investigators are looking for at least four suspects.

Thanks for the contribution!

I'll bet if they were wearing red caps with white writing on it (not Detroit Red Wings), we'd have mug shots and home addresses.

Thanks for the contribution!!

Great questioning. I hope a reply will be forthcoming
In Toronto you should be able to find some Jamacian, Luen Group (Hong Kong ) gangs etc So the article did not state that these are yellow, off black, cream coloured, gangs if it made any difference at all

When one gets shot I am sure the bullet wont be anymore affective if coming from a person of colours' weapon
or not.

Over 90% of the shootings in Toronto last year were a result of blacks shooting blacks. The relevance seems to be that there is a problem in the black community with gun violence and far too many black youth dying. No-one seems to know how to deal with this.

TV reports will show photos of the suspects although they will not state if these people ar black, white, Vietnamese, Chinese, Latino and so on, The TV reporters often speak to members of the victim;s families, which provides a good guess at the the ethnic identity. Far too many of these victims are teenagers.

Does it matter? Not if you believe there is no need to improve the lives of people in a community. Does it matter if you can somehow address those community problems and save lives? Yes.

Let them figure it out, themselves. The White community has there own Opioid crisis to deal with, and its taking far more lives.

The media has a great interest in managing the information, not just reporting it. People with their heads up their posteriors put more faith in what their beloved MSM tells them than what their eyes see every day. Black culture and violence is tearing apart the places where they exist.
