Let this be the last political comment in the tread... It is easy to get sidetracked like this when frustrated, but we all know how things can derail in political threads. This was after all a thread about the impossibility to own a speargun and use the ditto in Sweden.
We never had colonies, etc, but never the less we have a long history of welcoming foreigners to our country.
The social democrats have an old saying, a saying that explains the basic mentality of the Swede: "Do your duty, claim your rights". It has been a given thing for Swedes to live and act accordingly.
The thing that has changes gradually over the last 30 or so years is that the people coming here lacks that mentality, and who can blaim them really? They come from shitholes with no proper legal system, wide spread corruption, and that's all they know. They simply don't know the same thing we do about working hard, pay the highest taxes in the world and get it back from society when you need it.
Therefore it is utterly important passing that fundamental part of the Swedish society on to people coming here, and enforcing that they comply or leave. This has not been done in any extent at all, the newcomers don't have to learn the language, they don't have to get a job, they can commit crimes without risk of beeing kicked out, they don't even have to get a place to live, it's all served.
As a result of this failed politics a lot of people has milked our society for a long time, taking part of all the benefits but not contributed at all. The most problematic aspect of it all, and the thing that has made this go on for such a long time is that as soon as people talk about it the racist flag is raised and the idiots starts shouting. It has been political suicide to adress the matter. Just now, when the right wing extremist party is moving forward strongly the other parties have started to get closer to the issue, but waaaaay to slow and meekly.
I welcome each and everyone to my country no matter of skin color and religion as long as they do what I do. Behave, work hard, pay your taxes and don't engage in criminal activities worse than speeding.
