This thread is not pro-Sweden and I think the Swedish Flashback brigade who has moved onto Reddit has made sure that Sweden is not seen as a 'socialistic progressive paradise' and that it is actually about to 'collapse any day' and what not. People been painting up the image of a Sweden being a hellhole for the longest that even american friends asked me if it really was as bad as it is said on the internet. I am not Swedish, I am American and just being American in Sweden is like being the king of the country while I see immigrant friend get his Engineering CV, he studied in Stockholm, rejected time and time again even though he gotten professional help writing it and he doesn't get called in for an interview even.
I work with people; I see them. I see how the Arbetsförmedlingen treats their request to apply for a job and I seen how the immigrant kids have issues learning because their parents might have low education and can't help them. The closest school to me which my friends went to had 3 specialized teachers for students with issues, the other schools which have a majority of immigrants have lower level of education and is often quite loud and troublesome due to the simple fact that many of these kids have complete different cultures, come from troublesome regions and this is the start of the small 'gangster' gangs who feel that they don't fit in.
No, it is not the Swedish peoples fault but it is the Swedish Goverments fault for creating this situation. I gotten in so many fights after being out clubbing because of these immigrant idiots but I also understand that these statistics doesn't fully show the 'truth' as many of the drama queen say. The rape statistics both in Sweden and Norway is absurd and fucked up beyond belief and it has been posted sooo many times and while it is all that, it is also skewed and different to most countries reporting of rape
'Sweden also applies a system of expansive offence counts. Other countries may employ more restrictive methods of counting. The Swedish police registers one offence for each person raped, and if one and the same person has been raped on a number of occasions, one offence is counted for each occasion that can be specified. For example, if a man says he has been raped by his wife every day during a year, the Swedish police may record more than 300 cases of rape. In many other countries only a single offence would be counted in such a situation.[10][13][17][27][28]'
