Ekeroth: "Give the policeman a medal - not a punishment"

LEADER. Even if you know, you are sometimes struck by how incredibly much has to change and how difficult it actually is to deal with all the craziness in Sweden. The latest in the line of bizarre examples of this Kafka-like country is the policeman who is now being punished for stopping a gang of thieves using his service weapon. He should get a medal, not a penalty.
As Samnytt recently reported , a police officer was convicted of stopping a gang of thieves at a car dealership, who when he told them to stop cold-bloodedly gassed up and nearly ran him over. But instead the policeman Jonas jumps to the side, points his service weapon at the car's left front tire and fires two shots at the car's tire.

The result is that the car starts to skid after about 100 meters and two of the thieves can be quickly apprehended. Those arrested were two professional criminals who have been convicted of a large number of crimes. But now comes the bizarre: the policeman Jonas is charged with a crime. Specifically, misconduct because he is not considered to have had "lawful authority" to fire his service weapon at the getaway car.
So this happens when he is on duty and trying to stop a car that could just as well have run over him. The shots he fired did not risk hitting anyone else - it was from a few meters away, down towards the tires in an industrial area at night where no other people were nearby, as the pictures published by Samnytt show.
Poor Sweden
On Monday last week, the verdict came from the Ystad district court and he was sentenced to SEK 20,000 in fines for misconduct and SEK 53,000 in court costs - so approximately SEK 75,000. For doing his job. For stopping notorious professional criminals.
The reason he is ordered to pay the legal costs is because Jonas, unlike the thieves he caught, has a job and a livelihood. He is therefore considered able to pay for the trial himself. The thieves, on the other hand, do not have to pay for their trial. Total brain drain by this naive, petty and weak country.
I don't know how many examples there are now when law-abiding, honest citizens with civil courage are convicted for having done the right thing. An example, certainly a few years behind but a clear example, was when Per-Anders Pettersson saw a woman being assaulted by a man. He took his jack and hit the perpetrator. He himself was convicted for defending the woman.
Another example is the store manager in Stockholm who intervened against an arsonist shoplifter and was then himself convicted of assault, which Samnytt reported on.
Get the police right
A couple of years ago, I wrote about the need to expand emergency protection rights . It's just one of all the things we have to fix. Protecting our police and allowing them to use more violence than they do today is another. Not unprovoked violence that gives police officers the right to abuse, of course. But we must allow a much higher authorization of violence when police officers do the right thing in a pressured, stressed or emergency situation.
The shot against the car tires described above is one such example. It is one thing to investigate what happened, but we need to change the rules so that the limit of what is not allowed is raised significantly. The background of the perpetrators should also play a role - it turns out that they are professional criminals, even if it is only discovered after the fact, that alone should make more serious violence acceptable.
But also based on the police's own situation, the use of force should be given greater latitude. When they are trying to stop a crime in progress, when the perpetrators threaten their safety, when the perpetrators risk getting away with those they are trying to steal - then the tolerance for the use of force by the police must be very high.
That this is not the case today is a sad red thread in Swedish society. Criminals are protected. Law-abiding are punished. They crack down on people who speak their mind on Twitter, which Samnytt has written about before, but release murderers after a few years. Strains mosquitoes and swallows camels. It also touches on the anarcho-tyrannical society, which I wrote about earlier.
In the case of the policeman Jonas, he should get a medal for having the courage to shoot at the criminals who should have been locked up already. But this stupid country chooses to punish him instead.
We have a lot to do.
