Part 2
Switching to quieter districts gave only temporary respite
One of those who did not have the strength was Peter. While others left the police profession completely, he chose to continue but in places where the work environment was not as tiring and dangerous. Recently, Peter has served in Dalsland. But as a police officer, 'voting with your feet' now turns out to have only given a temporary respite. Mass immigration policy has continued at an unabated pace and what used to be the concerns of a few areas is now the whole country.

“ There are several poor municipalities that took on a very large responsibility during the migration crisis in 2015, where the number of new arrivals in some cases amounted to almost one thousand per municipality. Today, social services, schools and leisure activities are heavily strained, unemployment and dependency on benefits are high. It looks more or less the same throughout the country ", writes Peter.

The number of criminals is increasing, the police are fewer
He also describes a backward development where crime has increased at the same time as police resources have decreased. In Peter's own district, the police force has been reduced by half compared to 2008. The police management tries to cover up the shortcomings by borrowing patrols temporarily from other long-distance districts when it gets hot, but it can be a route of ten miles - not optimal when emergency calls required.

What happens is often instead what we witnessed during the Easter weekend's Koran riots. Peter and his team are forced to pull out as a lone patrol and when the resistance from the new serious crime that has established itself becomes too great, there is nothing to do but back down. The signals it sends to the bully are that "respect for the police is gradually decreasing all the time". At the same time as he and his colleagues retire, he has to endure " insults at best, threats and violence at worst ".

The police management obscures what reality looks like
Another misconduct that Peter experiences is serious is the "culture of silence" that prevailed within both the police authority around the connection between the rampant serious crime and the immigration policy that he and his colleagues witness every day but are not expected to talk about loudly. If the police do not communicate to responsible politicians what reality looks like and instead obscures it, it leads to wrong political decisions being made.

Peter sees daily examples of how the police management smooths over serious crime problems and conveys a Baghdad Bob image of what it looks like in society. "Despite daily firearm killings and shootings, words are heard from senior police chiefs that 'we are on the right track' and 'we are seeing improvements'." This is in contrast to the opposite development that police officers in external service see where " we are in principle all over the country heading into the same problems as in our larger cities ".

Investing in cities and saving in the countryside no longer works
The model that has been applied so far, where small towns and rural areas have been regarded as areas where the police presence can be cut down to prioritize the big cities, is today obsolete, says Peter. Serious immigration-related gang crime and violent Islamism are now established almost everywhere. " A continuously present and resourceful police force is also needed in Sweden's smaller cities, communities and rural areas ."

Peter also mentions the goal of 10,000 more police employees by 2024 that the Social Democratic government has promised. It has previously been criticized for shuffling the cards by talking about "police officers" instead of "police officers". Real police trained will only make up a small proportion of the total reinforcement.

"We who work out here see it coming"
But according to Peter, the reality has already run away from that investment, even though it would actually be about setting up 10,000 new police officers against the crime. "Unfortunately, the truth is that even that goal is not enough to meet the challenges of the future across the entire country."

In conclusion, he calls on the police leadership, politicians and the media not to "continue the dark" development of society towards a situation where gang criminal and religious-political violence is taking over power in the country piece by piece. A now winged expression of political ignorance about the migration policy consequences is the then Prime Minister Stefan Löfven's "We did not see it coming". Peter Torstensson paraphrases this in your debate article and says : " We who work out here see it coming ".
