For real tho, I think the current crime wave has more to do with power struggles in the drug market than anything else.

Sweden has had terrible integration policies coupled w segregating all immigrants in the suburbs.

The drug consumption of everyday Swedes is fueling the crime wave. Cocaine consumption is at an all time high. The former prime ministers son was caught w coke at home. But only the marginalized are penalized for it and forced to work supplying the rich inner city kids who get off the hook..

You may be right. In addition to stricter migration policy & better integration, I also think it would make sense to legalize drugs. Make it a state monopoly like booze, and there will be much less money for criminal organizations.

There was lots of reporting on the difficulty integrating in Sweden when I grew up there. We were supposed to have the highest educated taxi drivers in Europe if i recall correctly. Having a foreign surname meant getting sorted out first in the application process for any job. This was in the late nineties and the situation did not get better w the 2008 financial crash. There are generations of ppl who have been kept outside.
