Hopefully Sweden will be able to introduce the right rules to protect citizens from gun crime. Unfortunately Americans don’t take the matter seriously.

Sweden trying to be US, that's supposed to unique US characteristic, other country shouldn't mimic that.

A SAD and tearful day in the beautiful nation of Sweden indeed.

Why do such things happen? The reason simply is, they nowadays learn nothing or only the wrong things at regular schools and that continues seamlessly at such adult education centers.

A man who burned a Koran was murdered a few days ago in Sweden by Muslim fanatics, wonder if there’s a connection. Strange, no word on the identity of the shooter in the media yet.

Violence begets more violence which ends up solving nothing except creating more volatile situation.

According to one unconfirmed Swedish source:
Licensed to carry a weapon suggest that he was a Swedish national or at least a citizen.

For reference, "Swedish national" does not mean much these days, seeing how easily passports are given by Western European governments.

Quote: Sweden's Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said of the 'worst mass shooting in Swedish history': 'Today, we have witnessed brutal, deadly violence against completely innocent people. He later added: ' My thoughts, the thoughts of all of Sweden, are now with first and foremost with those who are the direct victims of this heinous act. 'Your grief is our grief. We are with you.'
To date not a single victim has been named, or the identify of the deceased alleged preparator of such a heinous crime.

Yes, I'm all grown up now and am aware of this. My observation is that the shooter is unlikely to be a recent immigrant as obtaining full naturalisation in Sweden takes 10 years though obtaining citizenship can take less dependent on the route. All this is taken into account when applying for a firearms licence.

Harry_Gatto is voicing what the people of Sweden is speculating with increasing trepidation.
The nation is experiencing a highly volatile, Pandora's box of crime, associated with organised crime, brutal gang wars, Islamic extremism.

The most likely suspects are: Muslim, Middle Eastern, and pro-Palestine supporter. Europe has sowed its fate and is reaping the rewards.

The only hint about the perpetrator so far is this - "Unconfirmed reports in the Swedish media say the gunman was a 35-year-old local recluse who legally owned a gun."

That's what some JT commentators are hoping for, no doubt.
No, you're hoping there's a connection. Just say it out straight, come on.
Yeah, coz white westerners are never terrorists. Ok.
