Residents, Swedish officials and members of the royal family attended a memorial service Wednesday at a nearby church. Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said the incident marked a dark day in Sweden's history.

From Swedish news:
The shooter was a 35 year old Swedish man (yeah, actual Swede) who had been unemployed since 2014. He began showing signs of mental health issues back in highschool. He was a loner and as of yet, his motives were not clear. Once source said he was mad at the wellfare office for not giving him enough money. This mentally unwell man was somehow allowed to own 4 guns (for hunting), which is frightening.
If he had mental health issues he wouldn’t have killed only immigrants. This was a terrorist act
What do you think about this mental illness? He had a diagnosis? Yes, I live in Sweden, I'm scared because the government is being soft in both sides...
People jump to racism so quickly.
Theres so far nothing regarding what kind of mental health problems he had, if he was schizofrenic its one thing but dont put it on mental health.
Well your focus is off; he did not use any of the guns that was registered on him. Second; imagine being in your own country, you lose your job and just becasue you are swedish and the resources went to newcomers, you get zero help. And you see how the cycle of newcomers is seemingly neverending. But this was not a hatecrime. And there are new information, that is also said in this very important video; that lady talking about three of the classmembers are missing. That is very suspicious. It could be that someone set up this man. I see your comment is meant to start hatred and separation and divide ppl; but you can use your intellect wiser I think. We do not yet have even 2% of the picture here in this case.
The amazing thing is that people are actually shocked it’s not an immigrant for once.
Media conditioning is real
What's more shocking is that people care more about the identity of the suspect than the people who lost their lives.
@@vickiebenson7980 That is really distrubing to me too.
@@vickiebenson7980 You're right but tensions rise quickly and make it easy to lose focus on what's important cause of stuff like what I mentioned in my last comment
@@braxxian it was an immigrant he changed his name they failed to mention that or show a picture
look: the shooter was not able to pass primary school and get any job, they refused to give him financial support but gave him licenses for 3 weapons. Whose fault was it?
His fault

No. The societys.

There is no reason to bring USA into this. Can you just delete your post?
@mikkelv7020 Why not? USA brings itself into everything anyways
Yes, I'm Brazilian and I live in Sweden, it would be a Tuesday in my country also. But here is chocking, you have no idea how peaceful this country was
I am deeply sorry for everyone who lost someone to this massacre. My prayers are with you.
Imagine going from a war torn country to a safe haven and then being shot to death.
Hahahah
dont care
Agreed. Its terrible.
a joke calling sweden a safe haven!!!!
yes before 2015 and before mass immigration.
Sweden is destroyed
yeah war torn
I just knew the shooter had to be a native Swede! Just like in Norway!
Hm, no, in Norway he's background was not 100%. In this case is.
@@MaurienAragakiI see 0 evidence that Anders Breivik's parents were not native Norwegians. Care to share any information?
What's your point?
And your point is what?
So killing imigrants is no considered as a terrorist attaact. Same thing going on an immigrsng kills its terririst, and a local kills, than it is mental issue, on similar attacks.
You clearly don’t know the meaning of the word
I understand your arguments, but who is not saying it was not? So we can understand better your arguments?
@@kreight_ Well, It is clear that you do not know that meaning of the word. This is called domestic terrorism.
afaik they haven't ruled it out, just that it isn't suspected rn
@@lup7271
Yes exactly
It’s crazy how I knew what the suspect looks like by just hearing mass shooting. My mind instantly went to white male.
Same, same. Gross how some people want the narrative to be different.
Well then you are misled by media. You can actually see collages of every mass shooter (US) by year. Google "photo of every mass shooter" then click "images."
Not waiting for the investigation and spreading rumours was very disappointing
I am so sorry for the loss, my prayers go to their families
Swedish teacher here. What was not reported is that there is a lot of violence, harassment going on in Swedish schools that is not taken seriously. Not outright killings, still a severe situation where teachers who intervene and try to uphold order themselves get indicted.

The shooter has been named as an unemployed 35 year old Swedish man called Rickard Anderson.
@@arni3_p1e 😂 sure it was
It was though?
@@jbloun911what evidence do you have that it is not? They confirmed his identity using his body
@@Zero_8095 what evidence do you have besides DW news which was created by the CIA
@@Zero_8095 I think he’s referring to some unfounded claims that the shooter changed his surname to Anderson leading some to claim that the shooter might have an immigrant background. I can’t see that any news outlets have reported on it which leads me to believe it’s a ploy to pin the shooting on immigrants as usual. Even if it were true it doesn’t change the fact that the shooter was a Swedish citizen and therefore Swedish.
Putting the shooter’s ethnicity and nationality aside this should never have happened, and it’s truly a sad day for all those involved; especially for the innocent people who were killed.
Blame xenophobic and racism
No know political motives says the police. I am Swedish and believe them. They might find some later but he ha had been studying at that school. Not that unfamilar or political among school shooters. Sad we take after all bad US thing. Like school shootings, being obsessed by skin colur and immigration.

This is tragic! May God bless the souls of the deceased and provide comfort and strength to the affected families.
"May God bless..."
what good would such blessing provide?
The far right political parties around the world encourage this type of behaviors just to get to the office at any cost!
and the left sets the conditions by letting people invade
80% of violent crime in Sweden is committed by either immigrants themselves or those with at least one immigrant parent and you think you can blame the right for that?
Where did you read this, i heard far right dont want integration but assimilation cause the first means your not taking on the nations traditions/core values and language but hold on to your own and cultivate it to grow.
But the 'Far left' aka the cultural Marxist only talk about race and destroying countries through welfare & illegal immigration 😅

Very sad for the people who lost their loved ones and for Sweden as a whole country...

Meaning??
No answer because the gun man ( not terrorest ) was a white man and he was citizen of sweden also european so just some memtal issue 😂😂 .
RIP to the losts
offcourse we hate u? and no one understands why u are her?
info is not up to date: it was a swedish man by the name Richard Anderrsson he went to jail twice for murder before this incident. The school it took place was during later school hours where there were some students and many adult immigrants who came for their classes. as swedish news confimed from video footage a students took while hiding in the restroom. During the shooting he was shouting "get out of sweden". the education college is actually a school which after school hours is used for adults too. majorly immigrants since they receive education here too.and some students were also there. (all of this from swedish news coverage btw).
So he has been in jail twice for murder? Is the sentence for murder 5 years or something
And how many such incidents happened in Poland?
Could not tell ya. I can tell you that here in the US it is almost always native born young white straight men. And I am one. So maybe if you want to blame this on immigrants, you're barking up the wrong tree.
Polish people are common in Sweden. Have you met any Swedes migrating to Polish white skin paradise?
Don't fool yourselves the real racsists look down on slavic people. I have met Poles in Stockholm all my life. Good for us but your loss really in Poland.
Are you talking about the detention centers Poland set up for its USA masters to torture people?
@@PMMagrowell said. We are all of us human. Any other identification is a social construct.
So you're saying a mass shooting is impossible in Poland?
Ruled out terrorism.
A terrorist attack, what was the terrorist name ?
Rickard
weak leaders make terrible things to happen and innocent people to suffer...
Wonder who MR Trump will blame for this mass shooting?
Swedish PM held an empathic ,calm speech in Swedish TV ,no blaming, no nastiness , no hate.
We are sorry for Sweden.
Not really

My condolences to sweden.
A tragedy, i wish you all the best to heal and remember the lost onces . Im so sorry my friends that something like that happened to your country 😢
Why is there a lot of gang violence in Sweden? (Mentioned at the end)
Because the Middle East has moved to Sweden and is now replacing the native Swedes very quickly.
Immigration
Period. Even the Swedish left stopped pretending otherwise now. Sweden has an enormous imported crime, gang and dysfunction problem. Due to possibly the stupidest ideologically driven immigration policy in modern history.
A market for drugs+a fragmented landscape of smaller gangs and actors which leads to frequent conflicts as deals are broken, alliances shift and power vacuums show up. Though more and more gang are also doing welfare crimes or scams

Huh? They said it was a white swedish guy who wanted to kill immigrants. Why would they say it if they wanted to "craft a narrative"?
Racists didn't wait till they crafted the narrative, shame for you that he's Swedish
Sweden for the indigenous swedes
I disagree. Sweden as any other European country should be open only for people who want to fully embrace Swedish culture, i.e. become fully Swedish in every way and should be of a European culture to begin with, with some exceptions from the rule for the rest of the world that would include elements shared with European culture.

That's the new trend for women now is they all have to dye their hair blonde and pretend they are Pamela Anderson on the beach.
WHY DO YOU CARE?
@@SwedenNeedsHelp Forehead wrinkles are signs of liver hardening, a normal thing happens in winter as the body calls for more protein or salty foods to feel warm. Just try to drink more "warm" lemon tea or parsley tea, citrus fruits such as orange or kiwi. Forehead wrinkles are also signs of stress, so sleeping enough is important. There are many tips to overcome this issue.
Its not immigrant related.. its not only imigrents on that scholl
Yeah, this is an immigrants related incident and all of that because of you and many others are rasister
Yap, you are quite right. In school, there are three suspects. Swedish boys age eight who recently team up on Minecraft to build world for 🐉 dragons, which sounds very violent. I bet police should look a bit there for questioning. Might find a very intricate terrorist ring.
if ur country aint making things right then its citizens will do it

OREBRO, Sweden, Feb 5 (Reuters) - The worst mass shooting in Swedish history was carried out by a 35-year-old Swedish man who lived locally, had been unemployed for a decade and had changed his first and last name, a police source and tax data show.
Changed his name from what?
Is it interesting to ask why the terrorist has chosen to change his name to his father’s old surname, Anderson? The father and siblings still use the mother’s more unusual surname, Simon. The shooter has also removed his first given name, Jonas. The Simon family comes from Annerstad and can be traced back to Josef Simon, born in 1842, a Catholic and glassblower who came to Sweden in the 1870s from Givoy/Gevoy in France and married a woman of the same age from Skåne.
