Swedish PM comes across as a lunatic in interview


Sweden's prime minister Stefan Löfven was roundly mocked after a TV interview in which he was asked about crime levels in Sweden:
When asked about the segregation, and the subsequent unemployment, could be linked to the refugee wave in Sweden in recent years, Löfven replied that “it would have been regardless of who had lived there, if you had put people there who were born in Sweden” under the same conditions, you get the same result ”. 
Yes, if Swedes had been imported as refugees into Russia, they would be throwing grenades and gang raping women. Who is dumb enough to believe this?

The PM steadfastly denied any link between race/culture and crime:
It is precisely segregation that is the problem. Here's how: You can't ethnicize and say that the crime is because you were born in a certain place or have a certain skin color or background.
You most certainly can, particularly at a population level. Import Pakis and Somalis, get rapes.
It is not what it is, but it depends on the conditions, the socio-economic conditions, and it is clear that you get too little language education, the opportunity to learn the language and too few chances to actually enter the labor market, yes then it will to turn on segregation. So in that sense, that's right.
All those Somalis would be lining up to be rocket scientists, with their 68 average IQs.
But I think it is important to distinguish it so that it does not ethnicise the crime, but it actually depends on socio-economic conditions.  
Ah yes, the old 'blank slate' theory. Humans are all the same, and everything depends on economic conditions.

The data doesn't support this view. Somalis in Canada, the USA, Sweden, Germany and Somalia tend to be the same in terms of educational attainment, rape, etc.
