Reading over time of the problems other countries are and have been having in regard to their taking in refuges from other countries, the below information only confirms what I've learned is true. Yes, our world is surely in a shake-up.

Swedish Leaders Have a Message For Trump That Has Democrats Flipping Out
February 23, 2017 By C.E. Dyer
President Donald Trump made waves this week with comments about Sweden that shined a huge light on the devastation the country has faced in the wake of a disastrous open-door policy that has allowed Muslim migrants to flood in. While leftists have tried to put the lid on the truth, prominent Swedish politicians have affirmed Trump’s comments.
In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, Jimmie Akesson and Mattias Karlsson, who both serve as leaders of the Democrats in Sweden, agreed with Trump’s assessment of the massive crime wave that has hit the Nordic country thanks to a flood of Muslim migrants.
“Mr. Trump did not exaggerate Sweden’s current problems,” Akesson and Karlsson wrote. “If anything, he understated them.”
Fox News reported:
Trump was ridiculed by many after he gave a speech Saturday citing Sweden among a list of European countries affected by the scourge of Islamic terror. Referring to the massive number of Middle Eastern refugees that have poured into the country, Trump said Sweden was “having problems like they never thought possible.” Some Swedish politicians openly derided Trump’s portrayal of the country – but riots in a heavily immigrant suburb of Stockholm on Monday evening put an end to most of the mockery.
“Riots and social unrest have become a part of everyday life,” Akesson and Karlsson wrote.
Police officers, firefighters and ambulance personnel are regularly attacked. Serious riots in 2013, involving many suburbs with large immigrant populations, lasted for almost a week. Gang violence is booming. Despite very strict firearms laws, gun violence is five times as common in Sweden, in total, as in the capital cities of our three Nordic neighbors combined.
Akesson and Karlsson added: “Anti-Semitism has risen. Jews in Malmo are threatened, harassed and assaulted in the streets. Many have left the city, becoming internal refugees in their country of birth.”
The Swedish Democrats concluded their op-ed with a warning to the U.S.
“For the sake of the American people,” Akesson and Karlsson wrote, “with whom we share so many strong historical and cultural ties, we can only hope that the leaders in Washington won’t make the same mistakes that our socialist and liberal politicians did.”

Deplorable? Lower Than A Snake's Belly!
Here's something you shouldn't miss
The unthinkableRape and abuse are rampant at some nursing homes. A CNN investigation found more than 1,000 facilities across the country have been cited for mishandling suspected cases of sex abuse.
I know a few who existed in nursing homes, I know of much abuse happening constantly in nursing homes. Yet I didn't know the extent of this sex abuse.
I say, "Hang 'Em High. Castrate is a good remedy!

Well, Duh
Top joke in Canada
When NASA first started sending
up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work
in zero gravity. To combat the problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and
$12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down,
underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures
ranging from below freezing to 300°C.
The Russians used a pencil.

A Path
Matters of the Heart
. . . .
"There are moments in life where the heart takes a bruising especially
in the areas of relationships. These experiences have the ability to
propel an individual into an evolvement stage, or into a negative
spiral, which attracts more drama and more bruising."
