So you think that the increase in grenade attacks in the last three years has nothing to do with an influx of refugees?

Correct, because the grenades have been linked largely to gang warfare and are coming from Bosnia and Serbia as a result of military surplus being sold per the Dayton peace agreement, not from the Middle East.

Sweden's own analysis has more or less confirmed this. While there are plenty of immigrant gangs (not necessarily Middle Eastern, and not necessarily new), just shy of half of all gang members are Swedish-born non-immigrants. Analysis indicates that most of the gangs are actually from longstanding immigrant communities that have experienced economic stagnation, not recently arrived refugees.

Hell, Snopes even has an article debunking this.

Three consecutive years of highly increased number of attacks is hardly an outlier my man

Nice use of loaded language while ignoring sample size.

Since that's what we're running with, let me take a stab at it - did you know grenade attacks in 2017 plummeted by nearly 50% to near-historic lows? It's true! 2017's numbers were just 11 off the baseline average.

Seriously, learn to statistics before you start a conversation like this.
