Man fined in Sweden for criticizing Muslims

A 63 year old man in Soderkoping was fined for inflammatory comments about Muslims and immigrants.

The 63-year-old - who lives in Söderköping municipality - wrote the comments on three occasions from the autumn of 2015 until the beginning of 2017.

This is clearly a priority. Three comments, good lord, we wouldn't want those causing mass chaos. This is a country where there aren't enough police officers to investigate all the rapes that are going on.

The most interesting thing about the case is, assuming Google Translate is correct, that there are standards for criticizing other groups:

"All three posts are designed in an abusive manner and do not invite any religious-critical discussion. They express just such failure as the provision on hate against the ethnic group intends to meet," the district court states in its judgment. 

If you do not invite discussion and are too critical, you have crossed the line into criminality, apparently.

Also, when is Islam an ethnic group?

Middle Eastern rape gang on the loose in Germany

The police in Dusseldorf are asking for the public's help in tracking down a gang of Middle Eastern men who lure women away from nightclubs and take them into apartments where they are gang raped for hours.

The alleged perpetrators addressed at least two young women in front of or in discotheques and introduced themselves to their future victims as "Jamal", "Sammy", "Momo" or "Bilal". Afterwards, the women were reportedly lured to a suspect's home or a hotel.

Surprise surprise. You invite legions of primitive, low IQ men from tribal cultures into your country, and they start behaving like this. Who would have imagined?

Riding the trains in Germany...

Definitely not as much fun as it used to be:

• Three Syrian teenagers have been detained after repeated attacks on train passengers. In addition to threatening and sexually assaulting women, they are in the habit of pulling knives when confronted. Just imagine what Germany will be like when they are 30% of the population.
• A group of Eritreans assaulted a train attendant who had stopped them from boarding a train while they were carrying lit cigarettes. 

You can bet that these incidents will not result in convictions or deportations; for that matter, they will not find their way into the crime statistics.

Germany should outsource its policing to China, since the latter country would not forgo brutal punishment for this sort of behavior.

Senile UN official says Europe cannot be Europe without Mass Immigration

In the latest parade of stupidity out of the EU,  Secretary-General of the UN Antonio Guterres argues that the EU should embrace open borders on account of the fact that Europe was always home to a collection of ethnic groups.

Upon receiving the ...Charlemagne Prize... Mr. Guterres began his acceptance speech by warning the crowd that many Europeans were “turning inward, mired in the memory of a golden age that probably never was”.

I'm pretty sure Sweden had a Golden Age when it was a homogeneous nation  in which women and men could bathe in the same swimming pools at the same time, and women could walk around the streets at night without fear of being gang raped.

“Assimilating several cultures [s]and legacies was the starting point of European culture,” while pointing out that the Charlemagne Palace of Aachen “borrowed several elements of Roman and Byzantine civilization”.

European cultures were derived from the cultures of the various European tribes, sure. It does not follow that flooding Europe with Bantu and Arabs is going to result in a stable mix. Gauls and Teutons could barely tolerate each other, despite sharing similar genetic histories and religions. 

If Europe had not turned back the Moors and the Turks, it would not be Europe at all. It would, in all likelihood, be a backward region much like the Ottoman Empire, in which the advancement of the arts and sciences ground to a halt.

The idea of Europe “cannot be premised on ‘us’ versus ‘them” mentality, the Portuguese politician lectured, adding that there exists “no alternative” other than to open Europe’s borders to the third world. He also alleged that “closing our doors to asylum seekers does not protect but shame this heritage”.

There certainly is an alternative: keep them out. I thought Margaret Thatcher used to be mocked for this sort of idiotic 'there is no alternative' ploy.

“All societies tend to be, or are already, multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, and multi-religious. This must be considered as a richness, not as a threat,” Guterres insisted

There's a very big difference between a Singapore or Japan, and a free for all in which half of Africa will suddenly show up on your doorstep. People throughout history have fought to maintain their cultures, as in the case of the Vietnamese resisting the French, Americans and Chinese.

It is interesting that Mr Guterres is implying that the First Nations in North America have no legitimate grievances, save for the use of violence that was used to dispossess them of their ancestral homelands. After all, the European invaders brought diversity to North America, which is a richness and not a threat.

"the Secretary-General emphasized what he referred to as the three unprecedented challenges” which “knock on our doors” at “this time of great geopolitical disorder”: xenophobic “hate speech” which is “fueling terrorism through social media”, human-created climate change, and mass immigration."

Because there is no better way to fight climate change than to allow tens of millions of people in Africa to migrate to Europe, where they will consume far more resources.

Toronto Star sells immigration based on unemployment

Another hack job by the Toronto Star, finding nothing at all wrong with mass immigration. The argument is that immigrants find jobs, and they lower the unemployment rate.

Here’s some even better news: immigrants — recent and long-settled both — are a central part of the labour-market strength in Canada, a trend that points to receptive employers, adaptable skill sets among workers and smooth integration.

What is a 'central part'? That's a vague phrase. Also, the fact that immigrants have jobs does not show anything about 'adaptable skill sets' or integration. It says only that immigrants have jobs, but the quality or duration of these jobs are unknown.

And we’re making more money. Average hourly wages rose 2.8 per cent from a year earlier.

And inflation was what? The economic illiteracy is staggering.

Immigrants are finding jobs just as easily as the rest of us and are increasingly responsible for fuelling growth in the job market

Great, so we don't have 'privilege' then. Also, if you flood Canada with 400,000 people a year, those people will require gas, food, clothing, services, etc. Of course economic activity will pick up.

New immigrants who have been in Canada less than five years have a somewhat harder time. Their unemployment rate is 9.1 per cent. 

Ah, so it isn't all roses then. So 10 percent are on welfare.

By the time they’ve been here more than 10 years, their unemployment rate is actually lower than for the population as a whole: 5.3 per cent.

What types of jobs are these? Part-time, full-time? No answers are given.

StatsCan says 83.2 per cent of all workers aged 25 to 54 have a job. For landed immigrants who have been here for more than 10 years, it’s almost exactly the same. “Core-age” newcomers, however, are employed at a lower rate, 69.8 per cent. That’s still healthy by historical standards. 

What was that? What are 'historical standards'? Back in the 19th century, immigrants worked or they starved to death. 30% were NOT on welfare.

Statistics Canada shows that immigrants claimed nearly 60 per cent of the new jobs that went to the “core age” portion of the job market. 

Again: (1) what are those jobs? Full-time, part-time, seasonal, retail? (2) this means that Canadians are getting hosed on these jobs. Why no concern for them?

The federal government is tracking the progress of the 60,000 Syrian refugees who recently came to Canada, and sees them finding work fairly steadily. In soon-to-be-released data, the Immigration Department found that 57 per cent of Syrian refugees have jobs.

There is no way I believe that 57% of all Syrians have jobs. One person in the family? Most Syrian women don't work, preferring to stay home to raise 6+ broodlings.  Even if we take this at face value, 43% of all Syrians are still on welfare.

Breaking the numbers down further, about 43 per cent of government-assisted refugees now have jobs, compared to just 10 per cent in 2016.

So 57% are on welfare, living as parasites.

At the New York Federal Reserve, researchers recently looked at how Germany had integrated two massive waves of immigrants and refugees — 1.4 million newcomers from 2011 to 2014, and 2.1 million from 2015 to 2017. They found that Germany’s workforce was younger as a result. Unemployment dropped and incomes rose. 

I don't buy this either, as half of the gastarbeiters in Germany are on welfare. There are many studies showing the 'refugees' are largely illiterate and suitable only for menial labour.

And if Germany can benefit from a larger intake of newcomers, couldn’t Canada? The economics say we should, but the politicians say we shouldn’t.

Germany has not benefited, it has suffered. Also, immigration is not just about labour and unemployment. The constant stream of attacks on women in Europe is a much bigger issue than a few part-time kebab restaurant workers.

The labour market, it seems, is more accommodating of newness than public opinion.

The labour market knows nothing of the other costs of immigration, including public safety, disease, violence, etc.

All in all, a trite shallow article that cherry picks data and presents a one-sided story. Typical of the Toronto Star.

African gangs run rampant in formerly peaceful Ireland

Another pack of Africans is rampaging through parts of Dublin, attacking random people with bats and metal bars. If you are shocked, don't be. The same thing happens in Melbourne on a regular basis, thanks to mass immigration.

From the Irish Sun:

Gardai have launched a probe after a gang of teens attacked staff and punters during a mini riot inside a Chinese takeaway. The Irish Sun can reveal up to 50 young men from one crew were involved — some armed with crowbars and baseball bats.

Four young men were sitting down eating when a gang of 50 blacks decided to smash their way into the restaurant and attack patrons.

Just imagine how much fun it will be when Ireland is 20% black.
