While it is indeed a shame to have these men roaming the streets to "exact justice", and fortunately they were arrested before anything disastrous happened. It is however a major issue that we have "children" of north African origin roaming the streets of central Stockholm, a stone's throw away from Parliament and the PM's residence, selling drugs, robbing people and sexually assaulting women. They often claim to be very young in order to not be prosecuted etc. Once medical age checks are done by the courts it is often shown that these "children" are in fact grown men. Unfortunately Morocco and Algeria for some reason don't want these career criminals to go back home, and so refuse to take them if the "kids" arn't carrying proper ID.
It should also be mentioned that a gang of 10-20 immigrants decided to descend upon a central Metro station wearing robber masks and wielding batons, lashing out at the regular people using the metro to travel. Police showed up with 10 cars and made the arrests while wielding drawn semi-automatics, rather than the usual service pistol. Once police have established order, they simply disperse the kids, as "no crime has been comitted". So apparently it is not illegal to cover your face in public (it is), it is not illegal to intimidate (it is), it is not illegal to wield weapons (it is illegal to run around with batons) in public, if you are belonging to the right group.
There is something rotten in Sweden, and the Government authorities really need to start acting like they care, or I'm sure we will sadly have more vigilante mobs, before all hell breaks loose. At least we can deploy the army now if needed, to assist the civil forces.
