@NathanHamelberg Guns, Germs and Steel är bäst, trots vissa brister.

"Riddarna på Malta" av Ernle Bradford är mest underhållande, men har ett något smalare perspektiv.

Pathetic incompetence!

But the thing that's really irritating is that these people think Paludan is a swede. He is a dane!

(Yes, he may be a citizen, unfortunately, but really he is Denmark's problem.)

@LivijaGinters Jag har ett boktips för ditt undermedvetna:
"The Rhesus Chart" av Charles Stross.

En vampyrepidemi bryter ut i Londons finansvärld, och de agila vampyrerna använder sig av SCRUM. De skulle säkert behövt en organisationsutvecklare.

And on the whole, if you look at statics on happiness, life-expectancy etc... Sweden is wonderful country to live in. One of the best in the world.

@CllrEoinOBroin @Trish_NI @UniteunionROI @Ginosocialist @SocDems @TheLeftBankSD @cllrjohansson @DerrenBrady1 @AndyMOBrien @TheEchoOnline @IrishTimes @rtenews @JMRootzen 12. Things are complicated. That some people in a discriminated under-class will turn to crime is well-known.

I am sure someone in this thread can confirm that criminality among irish-americans have fallen by a lot since anti-irish dicrimination stopped. :-)

@CllrEoinOBroin @Trish_NI @UniteunionROI @Ginosocialist @SocDems @TheLeftBankSD @cllrjohansson @DerrenBrady1 @AndyMOBrien @TheEchoOnline @IrishTimes @rtenews @JMRootzen 11. The problem with organized crime in Sweden has a lot of contributing causes and will take many years to fix.

Segregation, discrimination, bad schools, bad laws on crime, etc... Some policies (such as our labour laws) are very reasonable but contributes to the problem.

@CllrEoinOBroin @Trish_NI @UniteunionROI @Ginosocialist @SocDems @TheLeftBankSD @cllrjohansson @DerrenBrady1 @AndyMOBrien @TheEchoOnline @IrishTimes @rtenews @JMRootzen 10. The most important problem with immigration and immigration in Sweden are organized crime. And a large part of that is to do with 2:nd generation immigrants. They are not given a fair chance in our society, and the swedish school system is extremely bad.

@CllrEoinOBroin @Trish_NI @UniteunionROI @Ginosocialist @SocDems @TheLeftBankSD @cllrjohansson @DerrenBrady1 @AndyMOBrien @TheEchoOnline @IrishTimes @rtenews @JMRootzen 9. Anyone that calls Bergsjön a "no-go-zone" does not live here. And they are being silly.

Thats not to say there are no problems. Drugs are being sold, organized crime gangs in SE are murdering each other (and sometimes bystanders). But generally this is a good place to live.

@CllrEoinOBroin @Trish_NI @UniteunionROI @Ginosocialist @SocDems @TheLeftBankSD @cllrjohansson @DerrenBrady1 @AndyMOBrien @TheEchoOnline @IrishTimes @rtenews @JMRootzen 8. Now, over to my second point.

I have seen people complaining about No-Go-zones in Sweden... That is really an exaggeration.

I live in Bergsjön. Known as one of the "worst" places in Sweden. This is not a "no-go-zone".

The police here very often!

And they are liked.

If people in Ireland really want to protect women, perhaps you should consider adopting swedish style laws? Statistics will go up, and more perpetrators will be put in jail. And in a generation there is a decent chance there might be a culture change that makes women safer.

But some people (mostly men) that are very concerned about sexual crimes committed by immigrants seems uninterested and even negative towards policies aiming at protecting women when immigrants are not involved.

Now, is there a problem re immigration? Yes. Read the article!

Is it worth researching and doing something about? Definitely!

Would it be a reasonable policiy to ban immigration? No. Only a very small proportion of immigrants commits these horrific crimes.

Any reasonably person (and most unreasoable ones too) that takes two minutes to read it will understand why these statistics are extremely difficult to compare between countries.

And that any country in the world would get a lot higher figures if they used swedish system.

I suggest you read the wikipedia-article in english. It seems to be pretty good (I am very much not an expert).

To begin with, I am probably a lot less pro-immigration than Eoin. I think Sweden ought to try to focus on integration for a couple of years.

But events, such the russian aggression agaist Ukraine will probably interfere. People who are fleeing a war needs to be protected.
