Current Events > Swedish teen gets a bottle smashed over her head. *GRAPHIC!* No investigations

(+) Yeah! (+)

Does the Swedish media not cover the skin color of the suspects? Yes.
Has the crime rate in Sweden raised the last ten years? Yes.
Are rightwings making it sound worse than what it is? Yes.
Are foreign media spreading fake news about Sweden to make it look much worse than what it is? Yes.

Stop acting like Swedish teenagers are groped and assaulted on a daily basis in clubs that gets bombed weekly.

That's an extremely rare thing to happen in Sweden, probably unique, which is why it's such a big deal for them

Also to go back to this it seems four of those grenade attacks were in nightclubs, so I guess it's not as rare as you think. That's not including the plethora of regular bombings they're suffering.

This site consists mainly of American users, who are right now criticizing a country with far less problems than their own. Just seems a little preachy.

I wouldn't think so considering the average day in Malmo seems to be on par with the average day in an American city at this point. Sweden saw 26 hand grenade attacks in 2016.

Criminals gets grenades for free when they buy smuggled guns.
We would see a raise of grenade attack in New York as well if the criminals got them for free with every gun they buy.

Oh that makes sense, good old Sweden where you get a hand grenade for every gun you buy! Not like backwards old America where you just have to make do with the gun.

"Nu har polisen inlett en frunderskning fr att f fast grningsmannen. "

~ Now the police have launched a preliminary investigation to arrest the perpetrator.
Google translate

I believe that since it says "now", and the fact that the article even feel the need to point out that they're doing an investigation, they didn't plan to investigate it at first, it's possible that they still wouldn't, had it not gotten media attention, in which case, TC is right to bring that to attention

You literally can't be serious. This is standard press reporting language. Every news report you will ever read from any source regarding any criminal incident will report on the status of the police investigation.

I'm not sure, including the headline, the Aftonbladet article poins out that they're doing an investigation atleast 4 times, which is odd. Usually that's just a quick remark at the end.

But also note the phrase that translates to "Sophie is glad that the police have now chosen to take the case"
That is not a normal sentence in an article like this

Also, found an older article that confirms that the investigation was initially dropped.
https://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a/KvpOd4/sophie-blev-slagen-blodig-av-tafsande-man
Right there in the third paragraph.

Then, obviously it was picked up again later, when it started getting media attention

You know that you cant walk into a random Walmart and buy a gun in Sweden, right?

I'm sure you can't buy grenades either but that sure ain't stopping them is it?
