Sweden terror as truck RAMS into crowds in central Stockholm - many casualties

[Trollhammer]

Yeah multiple people died! HOW FUCKING HILARIOUS. Fuck off.

When it is happening nearly every week people are becoming numb to it.

[DarkAmbient]

It's sad what's happened to Sweden in recent times.

"just laughable" is akin to saying "its pathetic" , its not actually laughing, dude

Seems like i misunderstood him, im just fucking sad/furious about this whole situation. My apologies.

[Kalis]

I don't have to give anything back because he knows fuck all about swedes if he thinks a swede would engage in terrorism on behalf of islamists.

A convert might, though technically that would make them an Islamist.

[Sama-81]

So all you do is insult the one you quoted but give no word back as to why his reasoning might be wrong.
Who's the laughable one now ?

To be fair, the scenario he is trying to paint is extremely unlikely, as anyone actually knowing what they're talking bout (ie, being swedish or similar) could easily tell you. Laughable or not, it's certaily exceptionally unlikely.

Its about time we banned trucks in Europe!

Let's start with truck background checks.

Yeah I know I know, it's horrible, some people lost their lives but lets not go insane about it and suggest we need to start deporting 7% of Swedens population because a couple of people died. People are so freaking quick with pushing their political views.

His point was that terrorism happens. Who would engage in it and for what religion is different to the subject.

The last terrorattack by a swede is almost 100 years ago and was aimed at foreign workers during conflicts between workers and companies because they brought in foreign workers when people refused to work under bad work conditions.

By the way, why has this truck-thing become a method? Not that I'm complaining since trucks can be seen and heard coming unlike bomb vests, but there must be some reason for why it's a thing... or is it just convenience? Stealing a truck is easier than building a bomb belt.

Probably because it's getting hard to get guns/explosives/airplanes

Nothing to see move on

Hell no! I live in a coastal town, they'll be crashing boats into the harbor next.

And 50/500/5000 years ago other things happened people find laughable today.

Anyways I'm out of this topic. Seems I've found out who replies here and what mindset is up here. No point in having a conversation.

[Queen of Hamsters]

I hear people say that yet, aside for a few opinion pieces here and there, the media in Sweden does not seem to be trying to cover anything up.
I get the feeling people around here belive anything thats on the internet.

Well, most of the "cover up" conspiracy theories originate on far-right websites. Pretty funny, how can something be "covered up" if everyone knows about it even outside of said far-right websites?

However, covering up =/= trying to spin stories a certain way.

Sorry Sweden, its been a good relationship, but...



We also expect you pay for it.

Tbf, Norway's had the worst terrorist attack in Scandinavia to date. And it wasn't even a Muslim that did it. :P

[Ghostpanther]

Sad to hear this. But it does show that not having or very limited access to firearms, is no guarantee you will be safe from terrorism. And welcoming all refugees can also pose a risk.
But if the Swedish people are willing to take those risks, their choice.

definitely looks like a native swede

[Liftbrul]

As perverse and gross as it sounds, we need this. Every corpse on the pile will bring us closer to a collective epiphany about the nature of this threat and how to deal with it. We'll do away with impotent concepts of "tolerance" and "acceptance" towards these people, their hateful ideology and garbage culture.

I'm sorry, but "because a couple of people died" is probably the best reason to do anything proactive against terrorism.

True. In 50 years, maybe his statement wouldn't be as extremely unlikely as it is today. Doesn't really change anything in regards to how it was used in this thread, though, now does it.

"native swede"?

How racist. There's no such thing as a native in the West.
