Everything you've posted in this thread so far is true.
We have 29 ghettoes in Denmark, 15 of those are considered 'hard ghettoes' they fulfil all 5 of 5 criteria for being labelled as such. The most well-known ones, in the 3 biggest Danish cities are
Mjølnerparken (Copenhagen)
Gellerupparken (Århus)
Vollsmose (Odense)
There are many suburban areas, like Brabrand near Århus, where very soon there will be more immigrants than native Danes.
Sweden has 53 'problematic areas' (crime ghettoes) and 15 of these are considered extremely 'problematic'.
Here's a list of their names
https://www.thelocal.se/20170621/no-go-zones-what-you-need-to-know-about-swedens-vulnerable-aeas
I just post these names to you so you have some names for future reference, in case you have the patience for conversations with brainwashed, suicidal 'scandinavians' again.
Oh, and we currently have a muslim population that is closer to 10 %, not the 5 % Sano claims.
Sano may have Denmark as location, Sweede and Chokenakedfront or whatever the heck his name is may have Sweden as location but i can assure you that they are not patriots, maybe not even nationals, or nationals on paper only.
I'm quite certain half the people posing as scandinavians on here (WR) are not ethnically Scandinavian. But they are definitely card-carrying lefty photo-types of the worst kind; god-awful pedants who gets off on piecharts and newspeak, a dead-giveaway. Pointscoring while Europe goes up in flames. They don't give a shit about our future, or the future of Europe. Shameful, really. It gives me pause every single day to know approx. half of my countrymen can't be trusted.
Thanks for taking an interest in our well-being, Blood and Thunder.

Anyone following in this thread should pay attention to this, because it underscores what's wrong with the conversation. It's astounding how many likes your post got, which shows the clear confirmation bias in here.
No, everything he posted is not true. It's beyond nonsensical to say that, unless you didn't read a single of the rebuttals. A lot of what he said was factually untrue, which has been posted and sourced. I'll go through it again in addressing your post.
1. No one is disputing that there are areas where crime rates are higher, there is a criminal element and that people generally have a low socioeconomic status. Call that the "vulnerable" areas in Sweden, or "ghettos" in Demark. It was a term coined in 2010 in which an area have to
reach 2 out of these 5 criteria to get on the Danish "ghetto" list. These areas are blocks and housing areas, not cities:
- Crime rate above 3x national rate
- High unemployment/non student rate, 40% combined
- Lower income than 55% of the average national rate
- 60% of adults not having college degree or beyond
- Foreign ethnicity (includes second generation with one parent) above 50%
These inclusion criteria have been expanded both in 2013 and in 2018. That is because crime has been falling and education rising in those areas, so they needed to lower the bar.
From 2009 to 2016 youth crime has fallen by 27%. Overall crime rates in those areas have fallen by 30% from 2013-2017. Based on the criteria from 2010, today only 2 out of 22 of those still qualify (
1). At the same time, education rates have risen.
Fact.
2. The issue here is that there is a claim of what is referred to as "no-go zones", in which, and I paraphrase "there is sharia law, a high chance you'll get murdered, raped, tortured and abducted" where average citizens do not go and police wont enter. That is
untrue. Even your own link listing the vulnerable says, and I qoute:
"Are they no-go zones?
Well, not really. This term caught on in international media after it was used by a columnist to label these areas, but police and emergency services have themselves repeatedly rejected it, arguing that these are areas with a higher police presence, if anything."
"A fire chief in an area which covers some of northern Stockholm's most vulnerable suburbs, including Rinkeby and Tensta, told The Local earlier this year: “We don't have any no-go zones, absolutely not, the opposite in fact. We move around in all areas, with the same force, at the same speed. But sometimes we get indications, or see, that something is not right and then we take precautions.” (2).
So unless we agree now that a "no-go zone" is a place with low socioeconomic status and higher crime rates, the claim is incorrect. IF that is what we agree the term means, then there is no use for the term other than what's implicit in the narrative you want to create.
3. You are strawmanning the left position on the issue of immigration. Both you and
@Blood and Thunder. Right now, as you now, we elected back a center-left to left leaning government here in Denmark. The policy restrictions on immigrations still hold, and are the strictest they have ever been. Last year we took the least amount of asylum seekers in over 9 years (
3).
Fact.
I also posted this earlier in the thread:
I'm not saying that there is no issue here that needs to be addressed, it does. There needs to be several more social initiatives, tightening of immigration laws and preventive care in at risk areas.
So again, you are being disingenious or lying. I've said countless of times that we need sensible immigration policies.
4. No, the muslim population is around 5% as I said, not closer to 10%. He was wrong, and so are you. Latest estimates from this year says 5,5% (
5,
6).
Fact. You can read my thread about EU numbers in detail here:

5. Trying to sow doubt about my love of Denmark is absolutely absurd. So absurd that you cannot see the contradiction. You don't understand what makes Denmark great. Claiming I'm not patriotic and someone you cannot trust is a direct attack against my character, but clearly shows your bias because I know the talking points. I am Danish, I love Denmark and I feel blessed for being born here.
Fact.
At du anfægter min danskhed er virkelig så latterligt. Som nævnt er det paradoksalt at din fundamentalistiske tankegang er langt tættere på de ekstremister du hader, fremfor dem der har skabt det samfund vi lever i idag. Danske værdier er skabt på baggrund af menneskerettigheder, kildekritik, grundloven, uddannelse, tolerance og kritisk tænkning. Ja, der er problemer med muslimske grupperinger visse steder, og selvom det går fremad så skal der gøres mere for at løse dem. Den er jeg helt med på. Men det større problem, den større trussel mod Danmark er angrebet på fakta, medmenneskelighed og fornuft. Det er folk som dig der er mest farlige, hvad enten de er rabiate salafister eller racistiske propagandister. Det er fordi i har rigtig meget til fælles, og selve formålet er at køre ud i dommedagsprofetier istedet for at pragmatisk adressere de problemer der er. Ekstremisme er fjenden.
