In any case, the Serbians are the big alphas and are the main group making up what is commonly called the Yugoslavian mafia over here.

Those dudes have smuggled a ton of explosives into Sweden over the years and sell them to the gangs. The gangs are Yugoslavian, Turkish, and Syrian for the most part. Gun violence by the gangs is far more common than the grenades. They have no problem getting the guns. What are your gun control laws like over there? Do they foil the plans of those gangs to any degree?

Handguns have to be kept at a range. You can have a shotgun for hunting which is quite common. Gangs have no problem getting access to guns. The laws do nothing to stop them. However, we have almost no gun violence other than from the organized crime gangs.

However, that's in the context of both a huge and aggressive metoo movement with several high profile cases and a very significant change in the legal definition of rape where now there must be a clear and obvious consent for it not to be considered a rape legally. These two items hit at the same time and were all over the media and women were massively encouraged to report everything. It was all over the place. Naturally, this led to a large increase in the reporting in of rapes which is what the statistics are based on. Actual convictions didn't change. Of course, the right wingers and anti immigrant types want to blame the migrants for a problem that doesn't even exist. Its hogwash.

Our media coverage of goings on in Europe is nonexistent, so we either get nothing or agendas on social media. I do appreciate the on scene perspective.
February 4Feb 4 School shooting in Sweden today. Five injured and unconfirmed reports are that one is dead (likely the perpetrator). Gun laws may be able to help but they certainly don't stop everyone from getting guns.

February 4Feb 4 Update: It seems as if there are five injured but also an additional number who are dead. Witnesses describe 20+ shots from some sort of automatic weapon. edit: Seems like it is an adult education school for people who never graduated high school.

February 4Feb 4 No exact number yet as I guess one or two are in critical situations on the operating table but the number killed is around 10
February 6Feb 6 11 died which includes the suspect appears to be a school with lots of immigrants and the gunman looks to be a classic pasty whitey who had not worked in a decade and had severe psychological problems
