Comment on Teen girls are being used as hitwomen in Sweden's organized crime wars: "Young kids are thirsty for blood"

This article is fucking crazy, what the hell is wrong with Sweden now?

Earlier in April, two people were killed in a suspected gang fight in Gothenburg, while a renowned rapper was shot dead in a gang battle in the city in December.

Since when are there Swede rappers? That is weird enough in itself.

I get that drugs are largely the issue, but these people live in a country with a laundry list of social welfare programs that most people could only dream of. Free healthcare, free education at all levels, and a boatload of economic support initiatives for people in poverty. They literally are living life on easy mode compared to the rest of the poor people in the world for the most part. Why do they turn to drugs in the first place? It clearly shouldnt be out of hopelessness for their situation…
