This is a clip from Fox News when they visited Malmö, Sweden.


YouTube - Välkommen till (det nya) Sverige


It's not as bad in Stockholm yet, but I'm sure it will be soon because of the asylum laws (the most liberal in Europe).

There are social problems in Rosengård which was created with the ambitious housing project the million programme in the 1950's to the 1970's. Zlatan Ibrahimovic, one of the best football (soccer) players in the Swedish national team, grew up in Rosengård. Even the worst neighbourhoods in Sweden are safer than most American ghettoes.

Sweden got asylum seekers because of its social democratic government ruling on and off for 80 years. There are examples of neighbourhoods that are predominantly ethnic Swedish with many social problems. RÃ¥gsved is one of them with drug problems, unemployment and criminality.

Fox News has a neo-conservative agenda and with your last comment so do you probably posting this to further a Zionist or "Judeo-Christian" one. I doubt you're European. Like Fox (Faux) News it's deliberate and petty.

Actually I found it to be factual. I live in Gothenborg with family and friends in Helsingborg, Lund & Malmö and they tell us the same things and more about the absolute hatred the Muslims have for the Swedes down there. Dänemark has the same exact problems as you know just across the channel from Malmö.

It seems many who created the open door policy did'nt do their homework on what the consequences would be inviting just anyone in who seeks assylum. Look at the way the USA has been burnt in Iraq and Afghanistan. They had no clue as to their religious ideology and resolve when it comes to their cultural agenda for the way things should be. To bad too, because they have a golden opportunity for a much elevated life change from what they had.

This gives fuel to the Nazi agenda here and that is as disgusting or worse. We moved from a nieghborhood that was thick with the Nazi groups. But I dare say, there is no sure way to leave from it completely. They're everywhere. And they're not the blue collar down and out poor kids you'd think of when it comes to membership makeup. They are kids from the rich families. This stuff is reported on weekly here. Maybe up in Stockholm it's far away enough that you don't see that type of news on a regular basis, but it's there

I actually live in Stockholm, Sweden. About 10 minutes from RÃ¥gsved, so I know what's going on here.
I'm a pretty liberal/libertarian non-religious guy, but Sweden is getting worse and worse, and I think that the mass immigration is part of the problem.

Yeah, I also picked up on that Zionist - Judeo-Christian thing as well. but I don't believe that Sweden really has a problem with any of those groups since only about 2% are religious here anyway.

But I am aware of the Jewish/Israeli criticism against the so called Pro-Pallistinian support the Swedish government has given towards Pallistinian causes. However, I really don't know that much about what they do with the taxpayer money in that regard. Only hearing taxpaying Swedes complaning about it. Especially the older ones.

There is a problem, but there are problems everywhere. That video was ridiculously dramatic. I live in Malmö and I love it here. I have never had any problem with refugees or other immigrants. The only time I ever feel scared or tense is when there are groups of young men roaming around me. They're not of any particular race or religion and the worst thing that's ever happened to me is somebody yelling at me from behind as I cross the street to try to scare me. I live to tell the tale!

The only Americans who take Faux News seriously are the ones whom it tells exactly what they want to hear. To them, Reagan was a moderate centrist, Obama is to the left of Lenin, Hillary Clinton was the worst president in history, and Ann Coulter is reasonable. If that's what you like to hear, Faux News will tell you that.

I agree, that "news"channel only wants to create panic. Swedish nationals are not in danger.

lol. Fox News also tried to give a bad picture of the Netherlands a few years ago. They depicted that country as some sort of sleazy, drug-infested communist cesspool, when the actual fact is that there is a higher percentage of drug users, hooker costumers and porno viewers in the USA than in the Netherlands.

This channel is a joke, always alarming people with their manipulated and over-exaggerated stories. The sad fact is that a lot of viewers believe what they are given.

By the way, "slums" in Stockholm or Malmo are much safer than ghettos in Philadelphia, Detroir, St Louis, etc

I have visited the "slums" in Stockholm many times and the people there couldn't care less.
Nothing has ever happened to me.
I think citizens of Camden and East St.Louis would laugh their asses off if they knew what is being called slum in Sweden.
