You can stand on a London bridge and not have to worry about the Westboro Baptist Church church van.

If they wanted to do it they'd have done it, you said they don't have the opportunity but they have the opportunity every day, I mean the law didn't stop Omar Mateen did it? They're just a family of weirdos who make placards ffs.

Do suicide bombers get away with it?

You're right in that the Economist graph combines all foreign-born workers, so I can't make an apples to apples comparison. I'll also happily grant that the on-the-ground realities are more visceral and real to you, in Sweden, than to me, in the US. With regard to what's fair, that's up to the individual. I would probably have a different emotional reaction to the issue if I noticed a sharp increase in my taxes or a decrease in the benefits, or access to the benefits, that my taxes pay for. But I think my logical reaction would stay the same: approach them as human beings first, allow time for adjustment, and take it from there. The easiest way (relatively speaking) to end this crisis is to end the conflict in Syria. I won't pretend to know how to do this, but having an ethnic minority dominate politics isn't a great way to start, especially in a society with thousands of years of 'tribe as politics'. Your exasperation is noted and I sympathize. We have to remind ourselves that the overwhelming majority of these people have nothing and fled from certain death. I'm simply stressing compassion, but I understand that it's easy to do so from across the pond.
