Violence against medical workers in some areas of Sweden is becoming so commonplace that a ‘protection ban’ may be instituted on ‘no-go’ zones of Stockholm featuring large Muslim migrant populations hostile to the authorities. In practice, this will mean ambulance drivers will refuse to go to certain neighborhoods without police or rescue services to protect them. “We’re worried that someone will get killed if nothing happens,” says specialist nurse Linda Orrvik.
REMIX News (h/t Marvin W) The problem has been going on for years. For example, the Kvartal television program ran an extensive segment covering the issue already in 2018; it featured two paramedics describing the difficulties they face working in no-go areas.
“For example, we go to places where gun violence occurs, places where there are weapons and narcotics, and places where there are other rules than the rule of law we’re used to, that’s the difference,” said Henrik Johansson, a paramedic since 1990. Over the decades he has worked, he says the situation has sharply deteriorated in the last five to 10 years.
“It’s a balancing act. When we started talking about this issue 10, 15 years ago, when we started discussing this, we were quite often laughed at. We were called nasty things,” said Johannson. The interviewer then asked him: “Racists?” He responded, “Yes, among other things.”
Gordon Trattidge, the chairman of the Ambulance Alarm Group and the paramedics’ trade union, echoed Johannson’s sentiment, saying, “The incidents are more frequent and the violence is now more brutal. There’s also a more disrespectful attitude towards public services where one doesn’t respect who we are.”
Radio Sweden reports that ambulance staff are now proposing to implement a new system that will flag certain calls, including with information about whether there is a threat or risk of violence associated with a call. However, the chief of the largest ambulance operator in Stockholm, Falck, says that such a complex flagging system is difficult to get right.
Falck has 36 ambulances in operation and serves approximately 85,000 patients per year, but is far from the only rescue service concerned with the no-go zone neighborhoods in Sweden. In 2017, postal services stopped sending workers to dozens of homes in a Stockholm suburb featuring a high number of immigrants because it was too dangerous to send their staff.
It was reported in 2017 that firefighters in the capital were forced to abandon efforts to put out a fire in a burning building due to locals attacking them. The building burned to the ground, and police believe it spread from an arson fire that began with two burning vehicles. The suspects allegedly attacked the vehicles with glass bottles and stones, and police responding to the scene were attacked in a similar manner.
The situation has become so bad that the Swedish firefighting services had to increase their diversity hires to discourage attacks from residents in migrant-heavy areas.”At one point, some kids were throwing rocks at us. I caught hold of a guy and spoke to him in his own language,” Ilhan Demir of the South Stockholm fire service told SVT.
When former U.S. President Donald Trump said in 2017 that Sweden is “having problems like they never thought possible” due to mass immigration, he was roundly mocked by a wide range of media outlets across the world. Since then, Sweden has made a sharp turn on immigration due to a record number of shootings and murders, with the crime wave playing a major role in conservatives coming to power in this year’s national election.

Good. They need to take it one step further: Simply REFUSE to go in. If they want to behave like savages, let their buildings burn to the ground, preferably with them inside. Let them bleed out from a stabbing attack. Let them kill themselves off. These savages don’t deserve anything better.

The hot commends that you traded were nothing more than a talk with the left then should you talk to a normal german then you will hear other words.Only the left green nwo and ngo say that there are no no go areas . This they say because they live in gated communities or in the rich neighborhood then these parasites live off the people of the country and they will never be confronted with the hurting part. Update, the no go areas are spreading out of the cities into the little towns here so soon all will be a no go area and because of that there are no no go areas then it will be the norm allover.

In this situation it’s the poor indigenous swede’s I feel sorry for or the elderly that can’t move out of the area. Otherwise I’d say just don’t respond to them area’s. Let the bastard’s burn. Don’t send Ambulance’s, let them bleed out on the street.
Early in the morning 5:30am or something (they’ll be in bed then) send in the street sweepers to gather the remains, hose it down a little. And then begins another day.
Smoke Fire says
Sounds like the South Bronx, portions of Newark, Chicago, Detroit, and many other large cities from the 70s. U.S. firefighters were experiencing the same thing from the members of the black population years ago.

Yes just let them scumbags lowlife die before they do It to us
Daniel Erbstoesser says
To make it short. That is allover europe so and in some countries like germany the police only goes in when they either have hundrets of officers and that only when the politics force them to go in. The police stays away from the areas because the police is not allowed to touch the invader and should they touch him then they have a process on their ass. Ok they are scard shitless and they know that some will be hurt badly but that is the enlightenment that the new cultur brings with it. Shit berlin even has designated areas were they can sell hard drugs and the police stands there doing nothingShould you try to save cacutta by bringing them to you in your country then your country will become calkutta, easy as that.
Jack Rider says
All these European “no go zones” should be changed to “now you go” zones. How? Stop the dole supporting the do-nothing invaders. Low level misdemeanants must be deported based on mere arrest, while convicted felons should be deported after finishing their sentences. All their relatives and enablers must go along with them.
Daniel Erbstoesser says
As the good lord said yeah thou i walk through the valley of the sahdow of death i shall fear no evil then i will be the meanes bastard in that valley. This i learned in your country and yes i practice it here. I walk through evry no go area here and i do it with a big buck knife and sad to say not one of these bastards want to play with me, ok the group is harder but who wants to be the first one to come to me. That is the thing they are cowards until they see that you are weak or that you will not defend yourself.
Marilyn Z says
It has taken them long enough to wise up to those brutal criminals. They welcomed them and they are paying the price as these uncivilized brutes are working to take over every country they are in. Once you welcome them in, you are stuck with them and they only get worse. Wecome to reality, stupid fools. I once lived among them and I tried warning everyone, but no one would listen.
Daniel Erbstoesser says
Amen brother is all i can say to your wise words here. Yes i too have the experience with this scum and yes i played turkeyshoot in africa and i even got to see a little bit of the middle east and i tell you every nation has its own smell and afrika has a bad smell like its rotting and that comes from how the people keep their land clean or dirty and africa is a dirty land and that is what soon will be in our countries.

Good to see you back in my email inbox. Where have you been? And you would be interested to learn that I have traded some hot comments with European and American tourists who claim there are no “no go zones” in Europe.
Daniel Erbstoesser says
When you only go were the tourists go then there are no no go areas just like there is no hunger in africa. I live here and i tell you tere are more no go areas than you have fingers on your hand and at the time the clans here are spreading out into the country so soon they will be allover and all of germany will be a big no go area. Tell that to your friends and should you not believe me then dont come as a tourist but go out into the country instead of staying gated or in a hotel here in germany and ill show you otherwise but for all be ready to fight because thats the only way out once your in there.
