This is an update of a story we reported last May, here. Seems that the country highly praised for its generosity to immigrants has its refugee conflicts on-going as well. Swedish girls involved in the “mob” attack on an apartment building housing Iraqi refugees have been convicted of terrorizing refugees. From The Local:
Two teenage girls have been convicted for their role in terrorizing refugees in Vannas in northern Sweden last May in what was described at the time as a “lynch mob”.
The girls, aged 16 and 17 when the incident took place, were sentenced to juvenile care by the district court in Umea for harassment and vandalism, Sveriges Radio (SR) reports.
The charges stem from a May 9th incident in which a group of 30 to 50 young people shouted and threw stones at an apartment building housing a large number of refugee tenants, predominantly from Iraq.
Authorities decided to evacuate about 40 refugees to avoid potential violence. Within two weeks, nearly half of the refugees had decided to leave the area permanently.
According to the Västerbotten-Kuriren newspaper, the incident stemmed from a dispute involving a group of local youths who confronted a refugee boy about the alleged assault of a local girl.
Tensions from the school yard confrontation escalated over several days, culminating in the assembling of what police described as a “lynch mob” outside the apartment building.
Not a word in the story about any investigation into the origin of the incident—a refugee boy possibly assaulting a local girl.
The famous blogger Fjordman said this at the time of the original incident.
This is the price you pay for destroying the cultural and social fabric of a nation through mass immigration. Similar problems are now rapidly emerging throughout the Western world for roughly the same reasons. The state can no longer uphold law and order and frequently doesn’t even try. The only option left to ordinary citizens is vigilante justice and the formation of armed clans and groups to withstand the attacks of other armed clans and groups. It’s the re-tribalization of society, which is and always has been the logical consequence of Multiculturalism. If you’re a Westerner, it’s coming to a street near you very soon, accompanied by loud cheers from the intelligentsia.
I guess they didn’t get the “diversity is strength” memo.
Search RRW for ‘Sweden’ and you will see lots of posts on the immigration issues affecting this European welfare state. For whatever reason (I have no clue), this 8 month-old post, “Muslim immigration killing Sweden” still gets many visitors every day here at RRW.
