Do you know why that is Turkey.... In 2003, Sweden's rape statistics were higher than average at 9.24, but in 2005 they shot up to 36.8 and by 2008 were up to 53.2. Now they are almost certainly even higher as Muslim immigrants continue forming a larger percentage of the population.

With Muslims represented in as many as 77 percent of the rape cases and a major increase in rape cases paralleling a major increase in Muslim immigration, the wages of Muslim immigration are proving to be a sexual assault epidemic by a misogynistic ideology.

The statistics are skewed by urban centers where the Islamic colonists cluster. In Stockholm this summer there was an average of 5 rapes a day. Stockholm has gone from a Swedish city to a city that is one-third immigrant and is between a fifth and a quarter Muslim.

Sweden, like the rest of the West, will have to come to terms with the fact that it can either have female equality or Muslim immigration. It cannot have both.

So many bleeding hearts do not seem to understand....mass immigration does not lead to assimilation, it leads to a conflict between ideologies. Their ideology is the only way....hence the massive problems in Europe.

It's ironic that Turkey warns its citizens against visiting Sweden because of the high incidence of rape when it is their fellow muslims that commit the majority of such rapes.

Is it? Please show some numbers to support this claim.

.....Mevlut Cavusoglu claimed reflected the “racism, anti-Islamic and anti-Turkish (trend) in Europe.”

And just who is doing most of the raping in Sweden? Muslim immigrants.

“Travel Warning! Did you know that Sweden has the highest rape rate worldwide?”

Ever heard of South Africa?

@wipeout Just Google "sweden rape statistics".

john constantine, excellent post. the sad truth.

@wipeout, the issue is that most of the immigrants have been men from countries where they don't respect women. One Swedish father was quoted as saying, "I heard that there were supposed to be men and women migrants, but I only see young men followed by more young men, and more young men. Where are the women? I'm fearful of the future my daughter will grow up in."

The Swedish police don't release stats on religion, ethnicity, etc. of offenders, a move that (intentionally) shrouds the situation in darkness.

However, we get clues from time to time that do shed some light on the situation. For example, the police are guilty of trying to covering up widespread assaults at a couple of big music concerts, and were forced to admit that it was basically immigrant men ganging up on local girls. The cover up was explicitly aimed at preventing a flare up of "ethnic tensions," senior officials admitted

It's laughable that Swedes today believe they live in an open and enlightened society.

Honest Dictator, Jefflee, exactly.

"it's secret but it's true"

Yes. And to the point, it's a state-engineered secret, which the public occasionally and inadvertently find out about.

Proper and thorough public consultation is required, but that's the last thing the authorities want. Hence the secrecy and the too-often reliance on anecdotes over numbers.

Being someone who has spent much of his life reading lots of history books, I can tell you that situation never turns out well.

In other words, the idea that it's Muslims doing all the raping is based purely on anti-Muslim sentiment, rather than any number based facts.

Harry, you can see the problem - I guess a big part of being a "progressive" is to keep your head in the sand and always take the pc route. Meanwhile, in the real world...

What you call 'keeping your head in the sand', we call 'not giving into fear and acting irrationally and against one's best interest due to that fear'.

Its not fear - its reality. Refusing to see the truth because it would violate ones pc self-image is keeping ones head in the sand.

Its not fear - its reality.

Rational thinking is keeping your head about you and making determinations based on facts, and not blaming those who aren't responsible. That's reality. Freaking out and panicking because something bad happened, then making determination based on that fear without analyzing the actual numbers, and blaming those who haven't done anything wrong is irrational.

Refusing to see the truth because it would violate ones pc self-image is keeping ones head in the sand.

That's based on the incorrect premise that one's irrational actions based on fear is the 'truth'. It's not.

Again, its not "fear" or panic. Its the truth. Will you find it on CNN or most other mainstream media? No. Even the most blinkered "progressive" must be aware of the censorship and bias in the media re anything to do with Islam and the "refugees". So much for freedom of speech and freedom of the press. But the truth is there, you just have to dig a little. Better yet, talk to a swede ( or a german)

Of course it's fear and panic. If it were truth, there would be some numbers to back up the sentiment. And people wouldn't be blaming those who have done nothing wrong.

Even the most blinkered "progressive" must be aware of the censorship and bias in the media re anything to do with Islam and the "refugees".

What you call 'censorship and bias', we call 'balanced reporting that doesn't succumb to fear'.

the truth is there, you just have to dig a little.

Ahh, that old trope - "the truth is out there". How could it be - the numbers don't exist.

Better yet, talk to a swede ( or a german)

Anecdotes do not a truth make.

@strangerland "0f course its fear and panic."

No, its not.

No, its not.

Yes it is.

See how we can go around in circles all day with this?

(Not that I'm going to. Feel free to post another 'yes it is', and I'll happily ignore it seeing as I've already posted my 'no it's not').
