> Norway doesn't have a network of violent gangs sitting in their prisons.

Is this something that allows them to have a rehabilitative prison system, or something that is caused by having a rehabilitative prison system?



Its something that is caused by the vast majority of people in the country being white Norwegian citizens. They have very few people (comparatively) who are social outcasts on the basis of being from somewhere else or not speaking the language or being a different color or all three. There is much less need for gangs as an alternative path to acceptance by a group.


There are lots and lots of very violent criminal gangs made up of white people from the US who speak English. Many of them are, in fact, white supremacist gangs.

I do not see any evidence that gangs have anything to do with being immigrants. I think gangs have something to do with a culture having an underclass.


There's less reason for racist white gangs to form in Norway when the country is largely homogeneous.


Dudes, I am not engaging with you any further.

Obviously, you have this idea that when black people form a gang, they are bad, but when white people form a gang, well, it’s because of the black people forcing them to form a gang.

Sorry, but further refuting of this kind of reasoning is beneath me. I see you very clearly for what you are and for the propaganda and disinformation you are trying to spread.


I'm not even the same person as OP so your last sentence doesn't make any sense. I was only pointing out that white supremacist gangs forming in the US has nothing to do with Norway. I also don't think white gangs are only in reaction to other gangs and I also don't think black gangs can all be simply labeled as "bad" or that white gangs are "good."
