- Bostonian 3y agoJust as a company needs to be careful about who it hires, and a person needs to be careful when choosing friends and especially a spouse, a country needs to be careful about who it lets in: "Turf wars for control of the drug trade, driven by an influx of guns, personal vendettas and a pool of available youths, many from marginalized migrant communities, have resulted in a gun-homicide rate approximately 2½ times the European average, according to the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention. ... The most notorious gang leader fueling the violence is 36-year-old Rawa Majid, better known as the Kurdish Fox, according to Swedish police and Diamant Salihu, author of two books on Sweden’s organized-crime gangs."
- injb 3y ago>>> many from marginalized migrant communities I scoured the article looking for any explanation of "marginalized" or any reason why this might be in some sense a contributing factor or relevant in any way and found (surprise surprise) nothing. Do journalists even know how to type words like "migrant" and "immigrant" without reflexively attaching "marginalized"?
- babelthuap 3y ago"The lack of money is the root of all evil." - Mark Twain. Nothing good can truly develop consolidating a large community of poor in specific areas. The poor can't lift up the poor. The only ones who benefit are those exploiting them which are mainly politicians. Start requiring politicians, company executives and anyone else advocating for massive immigration to house immigrants in their own homes and communities. No more dumping them in specific zones anymore. Make them own managing lifting up the poor.
