If you’ve been following the news from Scandinavia over the past week, you’ll have heard about Peter Springare, the Swedish police officer who caused severe multicultural indigestion among Swedish bien-pensants by describing the magnitude of immigrant crime as it is, and not as the politically correct establishment would like it to be.

Many thanks to Tania G. for translating this article from Fria Tider:

22 out of 24 suspects are immigrants.

February 10, 2017

LAW & ORDER. Örebro policeman Peter Springare wrote a new Facebook post in which he gives thanks for all the support he has received from the Swedish people. At the same time, he reveals that 22 out of 24 persons suspected of murder or attempted murder in the city are immigrants.

It was February 3 when Peter Springare commented on Facebook that it is almost exclusively foreign culprits that are behind the violent crimes he investigates.

Since then he has been heavily criticized by people from the establishment — but has garnered even greater support from ordinary people around the country. Now he thanks them for their support.

“Once again I want to say a really really big thank you! Thanks to all those both from around the country and from abroad who have sent letters, cards, greetings in various media, flowers, gifts and more. Also a big thanks to all those who have started and struggled with various groups on Facebook to support me. You should know that all this support is heartwarming,” he wrote on Facebook on Friday.

Springare points out that it has been like standing in “the freezing cold that cuts to bone and marrow, as when standing on a barricade in the face of a full hurricane.”

He furthermore says that he has learned a lot over the past week about how “infected” the immigration matter really is. At the same time he believes that his original text has been “distorted” and misinterpreted.

“I’ve learned a lot this past week. Partly how horribly infected the topic I raised really is. But I have also, in a brutal way, become aware of how easy it is to distort a text so that it is interpreted and warped into something completely different than what was really said or was the spirit of the writing from the start. All depending on the commentators’ political agendas,” he writes.

Springare says that he has been branded a “racist” with almost surgical precision.

“It has surprised me how many commentators and high-ranking politicians have simply taken the right to deprive me of my own experiences and truths, dismissing them by saying “I’m wrong” and that I just live on stereotypes,” he continues.

“I just want to say, that when it comes to what I think or say, it is my unvarnished truth. Likewise, what I see and experience in my daily life surrounded by misery and violent death, and what the consequences for society are at large, so too is it my honest truth. I want to discuss events that are destructive and try to change the situation” he emphasizes.
