Yeah maybe it's not the best term but it's quite accurate and I didn't spend more than 5 seconds thinking about it.
The point is, however, that this ("gang violence") isn't really happening in most of Europe (or other first world countries like Japan), and wasn't happening in Sweden 15 years ago.
Also, did you consider that the reason there's no casualties is that people are so afraid to go out or walk around these "gang areas" that there's just noone around? I wouldn't exactly call that a positive...
- dathinab 3y agoAFIK gang violence is happening in most of the EU in many cases has been happening since a very very long time just with very different dynamics then in the US which in combination with people often only reading the headline makes it a bit trick for a US newspaper to choose a good title e.g. when I read "gang violence escalates" in a German news paper I expect very different thing then when reading it in the US but in both counties it something you might have read in the last 2-3 decades and AFIK this bombings are not limited to some "gang areas"
