Pew: Nearly Half of All Swedes Believe Refugees ‘Are More to Blame for Crime Than Other Groups’

Nearly 46% of Swedes believe that “refugees in our country are more to blame for crime than other groups,” according to a Pew Research Center study conducted last year.

For those of us outside of the liberal blogosphere, this statistic is hardly surprising. From the “shock” of Brexit in the UK to the rise of Marine Le Pen’s National Front in France, Europeans in the north, south, east, and west have been punishing the impotent and feckless liberal establishment for its unwillingness to take the threat of radical Islam seriously. The fact is everyday people, voters, aren’t blind or deaf. They can detect doublespeak when they come across it. The experiences of residents in Malmo, Molenbeek, and Sevran bear no semblance to the happy go-lucky story of multi-culturalism the mainstream media keeps trying to jam down our throats.

Even the BBC was forced to admit that all is not well in socialist Sweden.

Checks on the border with Denmark, accusations of migrant sex assaults being covered up, a killing in an asylum centre and an anti-corruption investigation into a senior politician are just some of the stories that have made headlines,” reported the BBC last May. “The minority government, which includes the Green Party, was elected in September 2014, and since then has been faced with managing a migrant crisis that has impacted sharply on public opinion.”

Sweden has taken in more refugees per capita than any other European country. Let’s look at the results.

A little over 48 hours after President Trump erroneously suggested that migrants had carried out a recent attack in Sweden, hordes of rioters took the streets in a predominately immigrant suburb north of Stockholm. The riots began shortly after police detained a suspect on drug charges. But what happened in Rinkeby Monday night was all too familiar to the people of Sweden. Rioters, some of them masked, “burned about half a dozen cars, vandalized several shopfronts and threw rocks at police,” according to the Washington Post.

“The neighborhood, Rinkeby, was the scene of riots in 2010 and 2013, too,” added the Post. “And in most ways, what happened Monday night was reminiscent of those earlier bouts of anger.”

Importing a culture of Islamic misogyny and violence, male Muslim migrants have abused their host’s hospitality by groping and raping young women at music festivals, burning cars and attacking police in riots, and going off and joining ISIS groups in Syria and Iraq. Hundreds of Muslim Swedes, both native born and immigrants, have joined Islamic terrorist groups, pledging allegiance to the caliph of ISIS rather than the Swedish constitution.

Considering the sheer volume of migrant misdeeds, who could blame the Swedes for showing consternation about refugees?
