Sweden: Half of women in early 20’s feel unsafe, government ramps up “anti-hate” policing

Jan 21, 2019 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

“Statistics released by the Swedish criminal statistics agency Brå reveal that 42 percent of women aged 20 to 24 feel insecure in their everyday lives, fearful they could be victims of various crimes….The report comes after another report released by Brå last July which showed nearly half of the women living in ‘vulnerable areas,’ often referred to as no-go zones, felt insecure in their own neighbourhoods” after dark.

But safety be damned. Offending Muslims is of greater urgency for the Swedish government, which has been labeling as “hate crime” anything that might offend Muslims. So Swedish women not only fear for their safety, but they are also being silenced for expressing those valid fears. Most of those reported to be guilty of “hate crimes” are women over 65. Forget about the Muslim men assaulting women, and forget about the no-go zones. The police are too afraid to deal with them, and have no support from government.

“Nearly Half of Swedish Women in Early 20s Feel Insecure Due to Crime,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, January 16, 2019:

Statistics released by the Swedish criminal statistics agency Brå reveal that 42 percent of women aged 20 to 24 feel insecure in their everyday lives, fearful they could be victims of various crimes.

The new statistics come as part of the agency’s National Security Survey (NTU) of 2018, which found that the women surveyed claimed to have changed their route or mode of transport due to fears of crime.

Maria Söderström, an investigator at Brå, commented on the results, saying: “The fact that many people’s lives are limited by the fact that they have to change their travel routes and methods is a serious consequence of the insecurity and anxiety about crimes that young women say they experience.”

The report comes after another report released by Brå last July which showed nearly half of the women living in “vulnerable areas,” often referred to as no-go zones, felt insecure in their own neighbourhoods after dark.

The survey also found the across the board more Swedes are becoming wary of what they post on social media due to the possibility of being harassed or threatened because of what they post.

Sweden has seen a surge in investigations and prosecutions over the last several years on those posting “hate” online following the work of “anti-hate” organisation Näthatsgranskaren (“Network Examiner”) which has reported hundreds of individuals to police since forming in 2017.

Last year, the group claimed to have reported around 800 cases of “hate posts” and most of the people they reported to police were older women, often over the age of 65……

      Krishna, more veils won’t help, because the rape rate in Saudi Arabia is extremely high. It’s the RAPE CULTURE of Islam. Fewer Muslims=Fewer rapes.

    Again it’s the irony:

    islamic hate…. ok.
    hating islamic hate… not ok.

    The only right thing to do is to hate them, by calling out their crimes, exposing the truth, crying out for justice, etc. This is not ‘hate’ but truth, since they hate truth they call truth ‘hate.’

    I love it that it’s these older ladies with the guts to do that. I know the feeling myself. They’ve lived a long time, they know a few more things, they’ve seen the ‘good old days’ and know that this is not right, and they have that certain moxy that only comes with age where you say it like it is, come what may and who cares who likes it or not!

    The Swedish government is waving the white flag of surrender, in every word and deed, loud and clear.
    Every action of theirs says it. Not unlike their peers in the EU…

    The winners of the 2019 Raspberry awards are in.
    * The winners of the Raspberry for the stupidest politicians in the world are Swedish Government Ministers.
    * The runner up and winner of the most misogynistic government are Saudi Arabia and Sweden.
    * The Raspberries for the world’s most heartless governments go to Iran and Sweden.

    In Sweden, lock up all of the old ladies, and at the airports across the world, pull all of them aside and search for bombs and other weapons of terror.
    Reminds of the saying about weaving a tangled web due to deceit. Don’t seek truth, don’t speak truth and punish truth whenever and wherever it is revealed. That way, no one can find out that islam is the problem and hiding that fact only makes it twice…or more… as painful.

    Forty, fifty years ago the percentage of Swedish women in their early twenties who would have said they “feel unsafe” would have been minuscule. Now, it’s around 50%. Gee, I can’t imagine, no not at all, what has caused this change. Gosh, what could be the cause?

    • gravenimage says

      Jan 21, 2019 at 11:24 pm

      Yes–Sweden used to be one of the safest societies in the world.

      In neighboring Norway, every single stranger rape over the past five years where the perp was caught the rapist has been a migrant (most migrants are Muslims).

      Not so long ago Sweden was often thought of as the ideal society. How things have changed !
      Can’t imagine why.

    Why doesn’t the Swedish government just intern all ethnic Swedes in concentration camps and be done with it.

    I would like to ask those women, WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT? How did you vote for the leader of your country? Did you form any kind of resistance group to fight back? Obviously, the present leaders either they don’t give a hoot of what is happening to you OR they are sleeping with the enemy. YOU have to take some action while you can. PLEASE ACT.

    Sweden is bringing in shirkers not workers on an enormous scale. It is then giving them welfare. This is similar to the turpentine rate of a country at war. According to The Economist publication “The World in 2019” Sweden has a ‘budget balance (% GDP) of 0.9. I do not believe that figure and strongly suspect they are covering up their borrowings.

    When the truth emerges the International Monetary Fund will have to tell Sweden to cut its welfare spending. Being deprived of their free stuff is likely to cause the Muslims to riot. Introduce a new benefit one way flights to the Middle East.

    The Rape of Sweden’s Children
    20.01.2019 2:33
    The Spectator Index released their world rape report some time ago which tracks the number of rapes per 100.000 women. Strangely, we see once idyllic Sweden in second place outmached only by the Sub-Saharan country of South Africa. This beautiful and industrious nation has in recent years seen a very sharp rise in crime rates which its modest police force could not cope with. Sweden’s children suffer the most… Here are statistics from BRÅ, the Swedish bureau for crime statistics. – 7 840 reported rapes in 2018– Half of the victims are children aged 0-17 years old– 29% of the victims are younger than 15 years old– A 13% increase in child rape from 2017 to 2018 To show how bad it has become in Sweden here is some context: In 2016 the number of reported rapes was 6560, which was a 13% increase from 2015. In 2017 the number of reported rapes was 7230, a 10% increase from the year before. In 2018 that number rose to 7840, an 8% increase and a new record. Also, strangely, almost half of Swedish women in their 20s are afraid and feel insecure in their everyday lives, fearful they could be victims of various crimes. I wonder why…Leftist said that the people coming into Europe were peace-loving… a religion of peace… Islam, the major faith that the vast majority of these ‘men’ sport, isn’t exactly congruent with Western civilisation, or any ‘civilisation’ that Western people would call ‘civilised’. There’s a rather bizarre ‘cultural’ acceptance of child and cousin marriages, which is what leads to what we are seeing happen in Europe nowadays. So, what has happened to Sweden? If you ask the mainstream media and Left wing reporters, the big increase in the number of rapes is due to women suddenly starting to report on them… But if we look at the victims, now in Sweden not only women are being raped – since the enourmous immigration from the dysfunctional Middle East in 2015, many young boys have also been raped and gang raped by ‘refugees‘ as a punishment, due to the ‘culture‘ in Afghanistan. Bizarrely, at the same time that the crime rate has risen, immigration has also risen, particularly from the 3rd world, namely the Middle East and Northern Africa. One might almost say the two are related. It is a simple equation, if these people were not in Europe, we simply would not be witnessing the problems that they bring with them. We have problems of our own, we don’t need other ‘peoples’ problems, too. As many have said before: Sweden’s children must come first. Europeans must come first. Enough is enough.
