Being assaulted and robbed isn't very much fun at all

[Myth]

The police are very strict when it comes to beating on ethnic Bulgarians.

See this article from last year. Translated, the title says: "40,000 police officers will be securing the Levski - CSKA football game"

Fourty thousand. Our entire regular army is 30, 000

They however, are neutered and can't enforce the law in the rural regions where we get reports of roma raping grandmothers, breaking into houses, stealing livestock in broad daylight and such. They don't lack the courage or the baton power, but they are stopped by the brass to avoid any misunderstanding with Brussels. No one wants to be bombed because they're oppressing the minority! However, this leads to the minorities oppressing the elderly and defenseless in the rural regions.

You know what's funny? When the son of a local Roma crime boss, known for the distilling of fake alcohol (i've had Jack Daniels which tasted like pig slop mixed with rubbing alcohol in the past) murdered a Bulgarian kid the football hooligans were the ones who went to defend the other people in that village. They also torched his place. The police beat only on the hooligans. IMO they should have beaten on all of them. I mean, the Roma deserve to not be discriminated against and be denied the police baton to the teeth!

bottom line: the police should be empowered to do their job and no drama would be had.

I am working on a thread about gypsys, to share with you all. So let's not dwell on that debate (I of course see your point though).

Do I read you right, when you agree that eastern European football hooliganism isn't the problem, as you there send more than your regular army to games, whereas it becomes a problem in Sweden, where we send "dialogue police" to matches.

Don't get me wrong, of course it's also a problem in your country.

But you do understand my view of it being the culture clashes that mainly creates problems?

I think Gypsys, as an example and again let's not dwell on it overly here - would cut their "burden on society" short if they lived in a strictly Gypsy society. Not that they want to, of course.

Yeap. To put it in perspective, something shady is happening with Syrian refugees on our territory. We were supposed to allow 5000 tops, only to stay for a while. Now we have about 10 times that nubmer and Brussels is already telling us how to integrate them in our society. Why should we? Greece closed off their borders for Syrian refugees. Bulgaria can't. It has to integrate them.

Why does Sweden have to turn into a melting pot and why is your police completely neutered? Same deal.

We have a saying here - "The one eating pie for free isn't crazy. The one giving it for free is." Your government wants the Sweden you live in now.

Kadagar, have you moved since your childhood?

I'm asking, because it's not hard to find areas that fits your childhood memories today and it's not hard to find areas that would beat it to a bloody pulp in 1980.

Some changes are certainly general though, like outright street begging isn't that old.
