Sweden isn't doing that, though. It's not even the first European country to utilize border checks, so I don't know what you're flipping about. This is actually positive to Finland, and organized registration and admittance of refugees is in itself a positive. It doesn't mean that Sweden is blocking anyone from applying to asylum in Sweden.

There is no "actual border control" that is able to stop people from getting through the Mediterranean to Europe any more then there is "actual border control" that is going to stop people from getting into U.S. from Mexico. There are plenty of border controls inside Europe (because the borders are shorter) but when the outer border is as massive as it is, boats will get through. Only measure to curb that is a common EU approach (money, resources, deals) co-operate with Turkey and the African countries for them to police their coasts and beaches to significantly cut down on the flow of people setting off here, and an EU sharing system that ensures that Greece and Italy etc. aren't the only ones dealing with the influx alone.

Internal border controls alone mean that in the end the border countries are the only ones left with the responsibility, and that is where this whole poo poo began from.

That's what the burden sharing mechanism was supposed to solve, but as long as the outer borders are not under control it'll never work. As proven by the fact that out of the agreed initial batch of 100 000+ only ~150 have been moved so far, because all the recipient countries are too busy worrying about their own borders to give a poo poo.

Yes, and like said the outer borders will not be under control without Turkey/Middle East/Africa being given major concessions (since they would be the ones hosting even more refugees then they are now), also unpopular with the same countries that opposed the burden sharing. In addition you obviously need more money to patrol the ocean on both shores. It's going to cost either way, but the countries actually skirting their responsibilities are pretty much the same ones standing in the way of money being used towards a coherent response instead on an uncontrolled influx of people coming here.

As for laws and treaties you ranted for several posts how they prevent us from stopping hordes of non-EU citizens without visas from rushing from country to country to seek asylum where they wish. Right?

It's just that if said agreements were followed by all parties they would do exactly that. Stop the rushing. EU countries have just chosen to largely ignore their own agreements this far.

They prevent us from denying asylum to asylum seekers if they get here. Never argued anything else. EU regulations, especially ones that have been suspended for months, have poo poo-all to do with the UN ones.

The fact that you don't understand international law and got confused doesn't magically change my argument.

Personally if we just instantly deport people who are guilty of crime that sound pretty weird to me. Come to Finland, rape a person, get home to wherever you came from, possibly to rape more people? Then again considering Finnish sentences for sexual violence that might not be a huge difference.

Referring to a statistic no one can prove as factual is pretty dumb, hth

You don't think it is a fact that most sexual assaults don't get reported? I thought it was pretty common knowledge, it's one of the reasons why Sweden is so weirdly high in rape statistics - they are more efficient in reporting said crimes. You can't exactly prove that less rape happens per capita in Sweden then in India but I don't think that's in question.

Here is the amnesty report cited there anyway, along with interesting observations about sexual assault in Finland that I didn't realize (like how the victim can decide if it is persecuted or not):
https://www.amnesty.org/en/documents/ACT77/001/2010/en/

Also LOL these examples:

quote:

A district court in Finland ruled in the case of a man in his thirties who forced a woman to have
sexual intercourse in the disabled toilets of a restaurant by banging her head against the wall and
twisting her arm behind her back. She could not scream for help as the man had covered her mouth
with his hand. In the prosecutor’s opinion, this was not a rape as the violence used was of a slight
degree and the offence had been committed under mitigating circumstances. The man was
convicted of coercion into sexual intercourse and sentenced to a conditional (suspended) sevenmonth
prison term.

On a ferry from Finland to Sweden, a man took a drunk woman to his cabin and had intercourse with
her. She woke up during intercourse, started to scream for help and tried to push the man away. Her
female friend heard her screams and entered the cabin to help her out. The court considered that the
woman’s testimony of being drunk and suffering memory loss was credible. It was supported by the
female friend’s testimony of the amount of alcohol drunk, the ferry guard’s report of the woman
bumping into tables and doors and the consequent injuries. According to the court, the man’s
testimony of meeting her at the restaurant, dancing and having consensual intercourse was not
credible and was also partly self-contradictory. The man was convicted of sexual abuse and sentenced
to eight months’ conditional imprisonment. If the crime had happened on a ferry that sailed under the
Swedish flag, the crime would have been identified as a rape.

A 17-year-old boy admitted having intercourse with his 16-year-old classmate after a house party. The
girl was sleeping as she had passed out due to drinking alcohol. The boy was sentenced to pay 40 day
fines, that is the offence was estimated to be approximately as bad as speeding.

Oh Finland.

Pretty sure Finnish people still rape people despite having grown up here too.

The idea of some future rapist going "Oh! Oh I just did not realize it wasn't OK! Well I won't assault a screaming woman and drag her to the bushes to horrifically violate her if it is against the law." Or not understanding rape is morally wrong :lol:

They're terrible cultures and have terrible laws but people don't rape people in broad daylight in the middle of street. They still know it's wrong and illegal and they will face consequences, worse ones in their home countries if they get sentenced (death penalty in some countries). You don't curb rape by cultural education, you might curb more of the lovely usual treatment of women but since that is mostly legal under Finnish law and our religious shits do the same legal things, it isn't going to matter much.

It's apparently really difficult for the government to go one day without being complete ridiculous assclowns though

Thus far we got:

Milllion different ways for Sipilä to try to get all the järjestöt to the table to "agree" into doing the stuff EK has written for them word for word, only for that to (obviously) fail and him having to do the pakkolait by force, ensuring that not only does he look like a dictatorial lahtari in the process he also looks like an incompetent moron and ends up having lakkos and huge protests like a month into governance

(Also, they lie about a lot of things)

A Prime Minister's address to the nation about how serious things are, largely a source of entertainment and then it's revealed he was also lying there

(Some more lies)

The anti-jytky for Persus, complete collapse of them as a party that people would vote for

(Add in lies)

The Treasury goes NUTS with having one of their own as leader, does enough shady poo poo within months to be actually noticed by the public

(Lies, it's not that other politicians don't do this, it's that these people are magically good at both the frequency and getting caught by them)

The government almost COLLAPSES out of nowhere because of sote! Wtf?! We end up with the shittiest possible result with somehow more bureaucracy, more layers of government and more privatization

(Someone lies about something here again I'm sure)

The hallitarekisterisorisiitäcolathrowing adventures of Alexander Stubb, ending up with the government having to let go of the whole thing and be humiliated for nothing once again in front of the eyes of the whole nation

(Obviously a veritable smorgasbord for lies)

Since they have way more money they need to pay way more, twice isn't really enough (and I doubt it's really twice considering all the financial shenanigans they have access to where I don't).
