^the lowest tier courts are jokes in Sweden. Generally they don't enforce the law but it's kinda random. Sometimes they suprise you like today.

 

When you stop generalizing then I might start concidering your arguments valid.

 

 I'm telling the truth. Sentences are extremely low in Sweden, criminals walk free, and courts are garbage (if they don't let the criminal go free, or flat out compensate him for being unjustly arrested, they pick the lowest possible penalty from the lawbook in 97% of the cases, it's praxis here).

Just look at the statistics. Sweden has 1 of every 10,000 citicens sitting in jail at any given moment, while the corresponding number in the US is almost 20 of each 10,000 citicens - nearly 20 times more! Now the US is on the other extreme, and probably more violent too, but u get at least an idea of how few criminals in Sweden are punished.
