    Pretty inconsistent application of that then isn't? It's not like some other threads not moved from that forum isn't race baiting malarkey...

    all you've done is show that you don't understand what constitutes proof

    good riddance


    i'm pretty sure that most of the time, moderators don't read every thread

    i suspect they just read what gets reported

    I suspect so too. But my point was that while there exists two sub forums for things that only concern the US and western europe respectively, this thread concerning sweden got moved here while the rest of the threads that are only about US matters are allowed to stay in the current events section. Id est, they are trying to keep european matters where they belong but not american ones, even though they have their own sub forum, and even though the american issues are no more relevant to current events than this thread.

    And it's not that per se that bothers me, but the generally sucky way they have prganised this forum. Too many specific forums which leads to little activity, and too many very vague forums which leads to all kinds of (*)(*)(*)(*) getting posted there. What they really should have is a sub forum for every popular topci/category like 'obama sucks', 'blacks are bad', 'muslims are comming', 'joos run the world' and what other thing people like to talk about here, and then have all the minor things lumped into a misc forum. That way I can avoid having to browse through all that in look of a sensible thread.

    This is very off topic, so i'll end there.

    Well, in all fairness that must be mostly the result of wide interpritation of sexual assault. Like "he touched me without a premission" and similar type of female sexist BS.

    That, of course, doesn't mean, that migrants are inocent sheep.

    Yeah, the more I read up on Swedish rape laws, the weirder this thread gets. Sounds like their laws are ridiculously overboard, to the point "Rape in Sweden" is urban slang in some places as a joke.

    So really what we have is "right" types using the statistics of extreme "left" laws, to push a separate "right" agenda, instead of using the statistics to attack the original extreme "left" laws that made said statistics so warped? That's a mouth full.

    Most of non-Muslim nations are already waked up, but they can do nothing because they still live in socialist dictatorships.

    So if this ratio is so bad, why did Republicans block legislation to try to help?

    1. This thread is about Sweden.
    2. None of the things in that list prove "the number of women in the U.S. who report intimate partner violence: 1 in 4".
    (How about I just say, "Geese fly south for the winter, therefore, American women are whores!)
    3. American women are the most spoiled on earth.
    4. The real question at hand: To whom does a leftist give their allegiance, when overly protective laws of one minority(women), effects drastically another minority more than others(immigrants)?

    The thread states t hat 1 in 4 Swedish women will be raped and this is a reason to keep muslims out of the USA. It think it's very valid that right now, the exact same ratio are reporting domestic abuse. Hell, by the sounds of it, the muslims might bring your average down!

    It's been discussed before; the USA has terrible stats for domestic abuse, so pointing the finger at others is kinda stupid.
    And heavily beaten by all accounts. Perhaps the spoiling part is an attempt at an apology for their black eyes.
    The GOP opposed plans to extend legal protections to American women, they let the protections expire, not the Left.

    Sweden's high numbers of rape are explained by a broader legal definition of rape than in other countries and an effort to register all suspected and repeated rapes. If a woman reports to the police that her husband raped her almost every day for a year, the police have to record more than 300 events and the sex crime legislation was reformed in 2005 to make the legal definition of rape much wider than before and cases where the victim was asleep or intoxicated are now included in the figures.

    You mean the sexist "violence against women act"?

    Would you support legislation that singles out Whites for protection?
