Hand Grenades and Gang Violence Rattle Sweden’s Middle Class

When they are good, there’s none better. In this case, they report on the problems the Moslem colonists have been causing in Sweden, and they don’t soften it in the slightest. Go read the whole thing, and bring back your favourite bits, because it won’t be long before the article goes into their behind-the-paywall archive.
Daniel Cuevas Zuniga had just finished a night shift on a Sunday last month, and was cycling home with his wife, when he spotted a spherical object lying on the ground, stopped and reached down to take it in his hand.

It was an M-75 hand grenade. Manufactured in great numbers for the Yugoslav national army, and then seized by paramilitaries during the civil war in the 1990s, the grenades are packed with plastic explosives and 3,000 steel balls, well suited for attacks on enemy trenches and bunkers. When Mr. Zuniga touched it, he set off the detonator.
The above text from the article added to enable future searches after an story posted 4/20/2018 also contained the story of Mr. Zuniga’s accidental death by grenade.

On Tuesday, the police arrested two 18-year-old men on suspicion of throwing the grenade that killed Mr. Zuniga.
