    Sweden rape: Most convicted attackers foreign-born
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-45269764

    About 58% of men convicted in Sweden of rape and attempted rape over the past five years were born abroad, according to data from Swedish national TV.

    Public broadcaster SVT said it had counted all court convictions to present a complete picture in Sweden.

    But Sweden had thousands more reported rapes, and there is no ethnic breakdown for those.

    Immigration and crime are major issues in Sweden's general election campaign. The vote is on 9 September.

    The anti-immigration Sweden Democrats hope to make significant ground, although they have slipped to third place in the latest opinion poll.

    The Mission Investigation programme, due to be broadcast on Wednesday by SVT, said the total number of offenders over five years was 843. Of those, 197 were from the Middle East and North Africa, with 45 coming from Afghanistan.

    "We are very clear in the programme that it is a small percentage of the people coming from abroad who are convicted of rape," chief editor Ulf Johansson told the BBC.

    He pointed out that the number of reported rapes in Sweden was far higher, so no conclusions could be drawn on the role of immigrants in sexual attacks.

    We al responsible for the leaders we elect. The anti immigration party is slipping to 3rd place. Apparently most Swedes are happy with the current situation.

  6. Venezuela is a perfect example. Left ideologies destroy every society.

    Good people too, just terrible administrators.

    And unhinged right would be such a paradise. Are you sure you want to live in a world of pure capitalism: child labor, no vacations, no safety net, 7 days work week with 12 hours a day, polluted envorinment and so on.

    The key is to find balance between the two.

    Please show me someone who is accepted as a solid, relevant conservative that supports Child Labor, no vacations, a 7 day work week or a polluted environment.

    Take your time.

    Same question for you, show me when left only support Venezuelan type of socialism. I was responding to Optionpro comment. "Venezuela is a perfect example. Left ideologies destroy every society. "

    He said every society. Norway doing just fine.

    I was in Iceland recently, and they are quite to the left. They doing fine as well.

    My post was to illustrate that hard core right is just as bad as hard core left. Pure socialism is just as bad as pure capitalism.

    You'd need to go back 100 years to find such solid conservative. The point is our current system has been influenced by socialist measures and it's better because of it.
