Stranger Rape in Sweden

I don’t know why, but the current debate about illegal immigration seems to center around the question of whether illegal immigrants commit more or less crime than do American citizens. To which opponents of illegal immigration respond that if the illegal migrants, like Christian Rivera, were not in the country, they would not be committing any crimes. The latter is incontestably true, statistics or no statistics.

In truth, the question should be: what can these individuals contribute to the nation, not what they will or will not take from the nation? And besides, how much do you trust crime statistics?

In the Feminist Paradise of Sweden, now become the rape capital of the Western world, they have just released a study of rape statistics. They have discovered that migrants commit a disproportionately large number of rapes. Who knew?

The Daily Mail reports:

More than half of those convicted of rape or attempted rape in Sweden last year were born in a foreign country, new statistics reveal.

In cases of rape where the victim was set upon and did not know their attacker or attackers, the figure rises to 85 per cent. Four in ten had been in Sweden less than a year.

The figures have been revealed following an investigation by Sweden's public service channel SVT, which has seen opposition politicians demand expulsion of convicted foreign-born rapists.

When it comes to stranger rape, the figure is 85%. What percentage of foreign-born migrants live in Sweden? Surely, a lot less than 85%.

Researchers for the programme examined all convictions in district courts across Sweden for rape and attempted rape in the last five years.

Their findings revealed that where the victim did not know the offender 97 out of 129 convicted were born outside Europe.

The documentary revealed that in the last five years out of 843 cases involving rape 427 of the offenders were from a country other than Sweden.

The figures produced showed that almost 40 per cent of those convicted were born in the Middle East or Africa.

The most common nationality of appearing in court – apart from Swedes – were asylum seekers from Afghanistan with 45 men either jailed or sent to a juvenile detention centre.

As noted in a previous post, men from Afghanistan are the worst. They are also the only ones who received sensitivity training from the American military.

Of course, the overall incidence of rape has been increasing with the arrival of new migrants. Unfortunately, the rape convictions were lagging far behind.

The documentary also revealed that the number of reported rape cases has increased by 35 per cent in the last ten years, but has not had a conviction rate to match.

In 2016 there were 6,175 rapes reported to police but just 142 men convicted.
