Sweden School Shooting Claims Ten Lives

Last updated 1 hour ago

A tragic event unfolded today in Örebro, Sweden, where a shooting at an adult education center resulted in approximately ten fatalities. The incident involved a 35-year-old gunman who entered the school with an automatic weapon, leading to a significant police operation and emergency response. The Swedish Prime Minister is set to address the nation regarding this incident.

UPDATE: A Syrian, and just part of the saga of Muslim gangs infesting Sweden; details here.

Sweden has the EU's highest rate of brutal gun violence per capita in 2023. In the last month of 2024, 40 people have been shot dead in Sweden -- a chilling number for a European country of only 10-million people, according to a Reuters report.

Gangs are not new to Sweden. It has seen violent gang rivalries between gangs like Los Bandidos and Hells Angels since the 90s. These gangs could be easily identified because of their members' sunglasses, leather jackets and Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

But the older gang wars look like an "age of innocence", in comparison to now, reported The UK Express.

The new gangs are made up of immigrants from the Middle East and Balkan nations. The violence has become deadlier and lot more frequent.

Criminologist Ardavan Khoshnood, an associate professor at Lund University, traces the gang violence to the turn of this century.

"At the beginning of the 2000s, we started witnessing more street gangs and more ethnic criminal groups. They mainly started to grow in areas we call ‘vulnerable’ with a lot of unemployment, low education, and socio-economic status. Today, criminals have taken over that society to quite a high degree. When these gangs started to come to power they developed different territories and got very quickly deep into drug trafficking," said Khoshnood.

TWITCHY:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made a video to attack Elon Musk and call HIM 'one of the most unintelligent billionaires she's ever seen.' 

No.

Really.

AOC, the woman who got confused over a garbage disposal, thinks Elon Musk is unintelligent. Someone close to her really should stop her from humiliating herself so much and so often. We could barely sit through this giggling, ridiculous mess, BUT since we're all about bringing you the hard-hitting news here at Twitchy, we forced ourselves to do it.

Illegal alien cut loose in plea deal after raping sleeping woman — but then the feds stepped in

An Ecuadorian migrant cut a deal with Queens prosecutors that allowed him to dodge jail time for rape — but he couldn’t outrun the feds.

Kail Cardenas, 27, was picked up by federal agents in Jamaica Monday morning, less than a month after he was freed in the horrifying 2023 rape and sex abuse case….

According to federal immigration sources, Cardenas arrived in the US from Ecuador on a visitor visa in September 2016 but remained in the country after his legal status expired in July 2021.

The illegal migrant was accused of molesting a woman who passed out at an apartment party in Jamaica on Jan. 29, 2023. The victim told authorities she woke up as Cardenas was raping her, according to the criminal complaint in the case.

…. The victim told authorities she woke up as Cardenas was raping her, according to the criminal complaint in the case, according to reports.

Cardenas was arrested and charged with first-degree rape and first-degree sexual assault.

He could have faced between five and 25 years behind bars if convicted of the top charge.

But Cardenas was allowed to plead guilty to a lesser third-degree rape charge as part of a deal that required him to complete one year of sex offender counseling — and would serve no jail time if he passed.

Cardenas was sentenced on January 13 to time already served in jail and released — with the court issuing an order of protection for him to stay away from the victim, records show. The charge was then knocked down to third-degree sexual abuse, a misdemeanor.

The free ride ended with Monday’s bust by a coalition of federal agencies, sources said.
