    Sweden shouldn’t be allowed to do that, just like Trump shouldn’t be allowed to remove people who’ve been living in the US for 24 years.

      Unless The Guardian left some important details involving masked, armed thugs and concentration camps out of the article, what Sweden is doing is nothing like what Trump is doing.

      And speaking of things left out of the article, it doesn’t explain why his “three failed attempts to remain in the country” actually failed. It makes me wonder if there’s a good reason for it that we’re not being told. (And that, by the way, also sounds markedly different from the complete lack of due process currently happening in US immigration “courts.”)

        So wait, is he being kicked out because Britain voted for Brexit or because of something he did? You’re not even keeping your story straight. In the meantime that they’ve been there for a long time it’s literally the reason that we can’t give land back to the Palestinians or Georgia back to the Cherokees, so as a Native American I’m very interested in why it’s OK now. Kind of seems like this is just yet another instance of the people in charge getting to make the rules no matter what the morality is.

          What do you mean, “my story?” I’m not The Guardian! They’re the ones claiming he’s being kicked out because of Brexit while leaving out the reasons why Swedish immigration authorities ruled against him three times.

            You literally called it a leopards eating faces situation and said that the UK was getting what they demanded.

            The point is they ruled against him 3 times after he had been living there for over two decades.

              If he didn’t oppose Brexit.

                  Do you just lack reading comprehension skills or something? Why do you keep assuming random shit I didn’t say?

                  Of fucking course Brexit has something to do with it; it’s why he doesn’t have an automatic right to live in Sweden indefinitely. But that is not the same as being the reason his non-automatic application to stay failed three times. Clear now?

                    I don’t know why you’re so desperate to keep changing the topic, I’m just trying to keep it on what I was originally saying and you’re not so I’m done.

                    The bottom line for me here is that he shouldn’t have been kicked out regardless, after 24 years no matter what he did he should’ve gone through the Swedish penal system or something like that. Or it’s totally OK to kick people out after they’ve lived there for most of all of their lives and we should stop using that excuse in the other places.

      Why if your not a citizen you don’t really have any rights in the country.
