Unreported Terrorist Attacks covered up?

I don’t offer this as evidence that we should refuse people from a particular area altogether, but as evidence for vetting, and evidence against porous borders. Wrt this particular case, obviously there would have been no way of picking up criminal tendencies as the perpetrators of the act are so young.

My only point is that any government should try to keep criminals out of their country.

Vetting means we can lessen the barrier of entry based on discrimination by “area”.

I said Trump was incorrect. That at least some on his list were not ignored. As I learned about them on CNN or MSNBC.

:ehh:

No question about trying to keep criminals out
But that trying should involve evidence not stereotypes of how “those people”
act.

It seems that we agree.

How exactly does one “keep the criminals out” among the refugee population? If there are no databases, no valid papers, the ability to purchase documentation, etc., the task of “vetting is difficult, if not impossible.” This is from zerohedge.

"A Swedish police officer recently offered up a little more truth than people are used to when he posted an epic rant on Facebook about immigrant crimes plaguing his police department and his country. In the beginning of the post, the police officer said that he was “so ****ing tired” and warned that “what I will write here below, is not politically correct.” With that warning, below is brief taste of what followed courtesy of RT:

“Here we go; this is what I’ve handled from Monday-Friday this week: rape, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, rape-assault and rape, extortion, blackmail, assault, violence against police, threats to police, drug crime, drugs, crime, felony, attempted murder, rape again, extortion again and ill-treatment.”

“Suspected perpetrators; Ali Mohammed, Mahmod, Mohammed, Mohammed Ali, again, again, again. Christopher… what, is it true? Yes, a Swedish name snuck in on the edges of a drug crime. Mohammed, Mahmod Ali, again and again."

“Countries representing all the crimes this week: Iraq, Iraq, Turkey, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, Somalia, Syria again, Somalia, unknown, unknown country, Sweden. Half of the suspects, we can’t be sure because they don’t have any valid papers. Which in itself usually means that they’re lying about their nationality and identity.”

“The Facebook post was published by Peter Springare, a senior investigator at the serious crimes division at the Örebro Police Department with 47 years under his belt. Springare noted that what he had to say could harm an officer’s position and/or pay grade which is why most officers never speak out.”

In foreign circles, this is the most ridiculous statement he has made yet. Unfounded, profoundly unhelpful to anyone and frankly it sounds unhinged.

He seems to be getting worse rather than better.

This may shock some, but there are a fair number of Yanks who care not one whit about “foreign circles.” Leftists, both in the US as well as worldwide are in a state of abject panic, jaws agape, all agog, over a man who may shoot from the hip, but has accomplished more in two weeks than “someone else” in two terms.

Funny how no one on the left seems to note that the poor, unwashed American masses who failed to vote leftist have suffered mostly in silence over the past 8 years. No massive George Soros demonstrations. No marches. No rioting. Most did not even attend the inauguration - they were too busy working for a living.

I try not to identify with either these days, but I will gladly take the “ignorance” of the right over the arrogance of the left. Ignorance is far more easily corrected.
