Sweden continues to clamp down on hard in controlling gang violence that has exploded in the country, the latest being calls to integrate facial recognition surveillance cameras to track and ID potential criminals.

Last week The WinePress reported on how Sweden is sounding off about how organized crime is getting out of control, calling in the Army to aid police forces in reducing the threats. Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson squarely blamed this rise in gang violence on mass-immigration.

Now Swedish officials are looking to fasttrack these inquiries to revamp the police forces with more biometric capabilities, more cameras, and drones to identify suspects.

Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer gave his reasons why Swedish police and municipalities need more security.

At the moment, Swedish police get puzzled questions from colleagues in other countries when they realise that, for example, cameras which are used to monitor the congestion charge can’t be used by police directly for fighting major organised crime.

But the whole point [of the fast track] is that this should be complete within six to eight months, this is something that usually takes twice as long.

Cameras are extremely important in a situation like this.

In a situation where fewer and fewer people dare to talk to the police, the need for technical evidence is crucial, and we already know that cameras are extremely important.

He said, according to The Local

Euractiv noted how many more cameras would be installed: ‘In total, the right-wing coalition parties (Moderates, Christian Democrats and Liberals) want the police to have 2,500 cameras next year, instead of the previous target of 1,600, with the minister adding that extra cameras should be granted if further investigations into surveillance lead to law.’

‘In other words, this means a fivefold increase in the number of cameras since the new government took office, Strömmer added,’ Euractiv added.

If changes to the law are passed, police will be able to make greater use of facial recognition using AI technology in order to make it easier to identify criminals, such as gang members. The government also wants to make automatic number plate recognition a tool for the police.

Under the proposed changes to the law, they will also have more opportunities to use drones and direct access to external cameras, such as the Swedish Transport Administration’s road cameras.

Euractiv wrote

Liberal MP Martin Melin believes more cameras and surveillance is not an intrusion on more people’s privacy.

I don’t think people are worried about being filmed, but they are worried about having their house blown up or being shot at while shopping.


AUTHOR COMMENTARY

And because there are many such calls to stop all this violence, most people, sadly, will accept a much more vast increase in orweillan overreach. While Sweden is the subject here, more of this WILL increase across the world, as we know.

This is why I continue to harp about right and left making no real difference at the end of the day: they just have two ways of spinning the propaganda and increase in government.

[1]Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand. [2]And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage. [3]Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil.

Micah 2:1-3

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

  • This will be coming in full throttle when the Mark of the Beast system is officially activated. Only this time, it’ll be more advanced drones like the UAVs the military use.

  • Don’t let gang members out, when ya catch them, it’s not rocket science here.
    Throwing money at the problem does not work

  • Malachi 2:3 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung up on your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.

    KJV the true word of God, so much for integration you think by now they would try to keep people separate and in their own land that God gave them, O well it’s part of God’s judgement upon this wicked country and it will be used for the antichrist system in the not to fare future.

  • “Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson squarely blamed this rise in gang violence on mass-immigration.”

    Any excuse will do to satisfy the Hegelian dialectic: They create the problem, the reaction, and the solution.

    “If changes to the law are passed, police will be able to make greater use of facial recognition using AI technology in order to make it easier to identify criminals, such as gang members.’

    Satan always presents his evil in fancy and attractive wrappers. Once the media spins the benefits, the (m)asses suck it back like lemonade on a blistering hot day. Like the “Palestinian” protestors (terrorists), many of the people who protest are not Muslim; they just want to be a part of something much larger than themselves. They have no idea they’re aiding and abetting the very ones who want their heads on the sidewalks in a few weeks’ time. Back to the main story…

    At the end of the day, who defines what a “criminal” is? Currently, all Christians, patriots, Pro-Lifers, veterans, and government dissidents are classified as “criminals / terrorists”. Once people see these drones patrolling from the sky, and escorting folks into eternity, there will an umbrella of fear such as the world has never known. It will be on a global scale. It sure makes the “locusts” of Rev. 9: 7-11 seem like possibilities… It takes me back to the movie “The Purge” and it’s sequels.

    The Word says in that day, many will flee to the mountains (bunkers?) for cover. Could it be that their fancy schmancy AI-operated drones will have turned against humanity at that time??? Hmmm…I hope I’m in Heaven long before then! The current war in Israel is being used to set up this evil NWO; most don’t realize it. They’re too busy persecuting Israel and playing games on their phones. He comes “like a thief in the night.” I say, “Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus”!
