In 2011, Forbes ranked Sweden as 4th best country in the world for women and Denmark as 7th. Either the world really sucks for women or yeah, it's gone downhill real, real fast.
From his first hand knowledge, he tells me they're immigration policies have become pretty lackadaisical in the last couple years
Nothing to do with immigration. Most of the sexual assaults in Sweden are from "ordinary" swedes and not immigrants.
Police have withdrawn their statement, turns out only two of the seven men were immigrants. Such a stupid and dangerous statement to make in the first place.
Five cases of alleged rape or sexual assault are "nothing out of the ordinary"? Can somebody please find that guy and smack him upside the head for me? What an unbelievably stupid thing for ANYBODY to say, let alone someone who's sworn duty is to protect the public.
His sworn duty is to protect the public, not lie to them. He's a cop, and he's probably seen way more of these cases than he'd ever care to. You might want to read over to the next sentence where he says that even one is too many. He's just commenting on how widespread a problem it's become.
