Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Swedish government to ban websites that reveal ethnic origin of crime suspects

Dec 6, 2017 8:55 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Sweden has proposed banning the public use of legal document search engine Lexbase, which is used to identify the ethnic origins of Swedish criminal suspects.

“The right to read these public documents” will “be reserved to professionals, such as lawyers, journalists, and various companies,” whatever that specifically translates to in terms of which journalists and what professionals. Even the UK is trying to conceal information about jihad attacks. Its top counter-terrorism officers told media to “rein in” coverage of the Islamic State and jihad terror.

According to the Swedish government, the data released by the website is too sensitive for the public.

“Too sensitive” is an nonsensical excuse. The Swedish government is trying to cover the tracks of its abysmal failure, given its flawed immigration policy which resulted in out-of-control crime. As violent no-go zones expand, crimes by Muslims escalate, and the country has been declared on the verge of civil war. Sweden is now impeding the rights of freedom of expression, just as many other Western governments are now doing — a symptom of fascism.

“Swedish Government to Ban Websites that List Ethnic Origin of Criminal Suspects”, by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, December 5, 2017:

Sweden has proposed banning the public use of legal document search engine Lexbase, which is used to identify the ethnic origins of Swedish criminal suspects.

According to the Swedish government, the data released by the website is too sensitive for the public and should be limited only to professionals like lawyers, journalists, and researchers. Previously, the website was protected under the Swedish Freedom of Expression Act, but the new legislation could limit what data they are allowed to release, Dagens Industri reports.

In a statement posted to their website, Lexbase wrote: “The right to read these public documents easily via Lexbase will, if the proposal is adopted, be reserved to professionals, such as lawyers, journalists, and various companies.”

While Justice Minister Morgan Johansson said that journalistic activity would not be affected, he left the definition of what constitutes “journalistic activity” open to question.

For many years, the Swedish government has stopped the collection of statistics relating to the ethnic or religious background of criminals, making it difficult for researchers to track the correct rate of migrant crime, as opposed to crimes committed by native Swedes.

Some, like police officer Peter Springare, have claimed that the majority of serious crimes are committed by migrants or individuals from migrant backgrounds. Others have used freedom of information requests to look at crimes on a case-by-case basis and track the rate at which criminals born overseas have offended.

One research project attempted to look solely at cases of gang rape in Sweden and found, through examining court documents, that nine out of 10 gang rapes were committed by asylum seekers and individuals…..

    Sweden and the western Europe are planning the end of Europe as we know it. After a while they will delete any crime statistics, telling us there is no crime (just an invention of our mind). Time to react

      Such open minded progress. Shut the country down!. Since when do the citizens who pay for the government not have a right to examine the workings of that government. Only in Sweden will they institute collective ignorance.

    The Swedish government is trying to control the electorate through one-sided, highly edited messages… otherwise known as ‘propaganda’.

    This is outrageous that a Western government should so blatantly attack the FREEDOM OF INFORMATION.

    This is TYRANNY.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize. Everyone should be aware that the official position of 180 member countries of the United Nations is that they see no value in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. I don’t know if Sweden is in that 180, but my guess is they are. The founders of the United States were geniuses.

    Sweden does want not to be racist….ok, the riots were not caused by race..but by an ideology that got absorbed in the mind and acted up on command of lawlessness. They just increased trouble by bringing the ideology into the country and some of that lawless culture that sees no borders or follows no law other than their own sharia and now Sweden is dealing with that mass migration crowd of, “we are not here to blend crowd. ”
    Little did Sweden know that means they want control of Sweden and will do it by jihad attacks.

    • underbed cat says

      Dec 6, 2017 at 9:44 am

      Peaceful until the numbers rise that is, organized and preplanned to tell Sweden it is racist to think they would blend…and racist to explain the doctrine.

    I was once having a conversation with a leftist about Sweden. She said that immigrant crime was “not a thing”. She produced an article claiming no empirical evidence for an islamic crime wave. I said there were plenty of Swedes on the ground who would dispute that. She said those were probably the racist Swedes and that there was no proof.

    If the data is suppressed, then this argument will be the argument until most of the blondes will be hijabbed up.

    This reminds me of an old British situation comedy titled “One Foot in the Grave.” where the main character, an old English man, said to his friend while having a pint that it was the BBC’s fault that people were dying in Botswana. To paraphrase, he said that if the BBC had not televised the people there in dire straights and dying of hunger and decease, it would not have occurred. If the news outlets don’t apprise the people of the slaughter, rape and pillage of government funds, then it must not be happening. I bet that the police appreciate that there is no danger when entering part of Malmo and other cities where followers of the pedophilic monster have created states within these cities.

      That is a good point Rayman…it does seem to be the case, if they are victim they can never be dangerous.

    Well there’s really only two possible path’s ahead of the Swedes at this point.

    1. Submit.

    2. Fight back.

    Fighting back is going to mean mass deportations, Military occupation in the streets, a tremendous amount of violence and death. Its going to mean cruelty and savagery.

    The Swede’s can pull from their own history, to find the strength to do this. Somehow I really doubt that they will, though.

      Sweden is now about 8% Muslim. They can still turn this around if they have the will. Little sign of that, though.

    Just remember this when something smells like terrorism, Islamic terrorism. Since they just announced they are going to cover for them, we will assume that an Islamist is at fault. They will deny it, but who can believe them from now on. Such is the nature of coverups.

    Why? Are they worried we would ‘detect a pattern,’ or something?

    More cover ups of the truth!

    Public information that is being obstructed from public access. Well, then it’s no longer public info, and that is outrageous and devious. Right now, the Swedish government is probably replanting returning ISIS jihadists amoung unsuspecting Swedes; they are fearless in this task but afraid of statistics. Why? The only logical answer is what those stats will reveal about their failed policies.

    Swedish government to ban websites that reveal ethnic origin of crime suspects
    ……………………..

    More crushing of freedom of information from Sweden–and more suicidal insanity. God forbid that Swedes get some idea of how harmful the flood of Muslims into their nation really is!

    Dec 6, 2017 at 9:51 pm

    “… Sweden is now impeding the rights of freedom of expression, just as many other Western governments are now doing…”

    It’s censorship that aims to curtail and regulate individuals right of conscience, to form and express opinions. In Sweden the State is moving down the totalitarian road wishing to have the last say on everything that comes within the gambit of it’s rigid radical multicultural and radical gender ideological fixations.

    It is too sensitive for the public. Yet the public is far more stable than the “professionals”.

    When Communism and Nazism were spreading the rest of the sane world fought back and won.
    That world does not get it as yet that Islam is WAY more devastating than those two combined?!!!

    A Feminist Government

    http://www.government.se/government-policy/a-feminist-government/:

    Sweden has the first feminist government in the world. This means that gender equality is central to the Government’s priorities – in decision-making and resource allocation. A feminist government ensures that a gender equality perspective is brought into policy-making on a broad front, both nationally and internationally. Women and men must have the same power to shape society and their own lives. This is a human right and a matter of democracy and justice. Gender equality is also part of the solution to society’s challenges and a matter of course in a modern welfare state – for justice and economic development. The Government’s most important tool for implementing feminist policy is gender mainstreaming, of which gender-responsive budgeting is an important component. –

    The feminist government of Sweden has made provision for its own destruction. The corollaries of feminism are same-sex marriage, fewer children and demographic decline. The Islamic culture of Muslims is superior to this culture of suicide in Sweden (and the West) and in a few generations Sweden will disappear thanks to its feminist agenda.

    This is the way Sweden ends
    
This is the way Sweden ends

    This is the way Sweden ends

    Not with a bang but a whimper.

    • Carolyne says

      Dec 7, 2017 at 11:21 am

      So then, Benedict, you are against equality of women? For myself, I believe that the person most qualified to do a job is the person who gets the job, regardless of sex. A person doing a job must be paid the same as the person doing the same job. One’s sex should not enter into it. Feminists will never agree to become second class again. It’s as simple as that. To do otherwise is very Muslim. Keep women at home and force them into inferior status.

    What?
    The catch-all phrase “Asian Men” isn’t ambiguous enough?
    What fools! ?
