This is a textbook definition of bigotry - refusal to change one's mind when confronted with contradictory evidence.
In place of this examination by an independent party (the BBC) and in pursuit of evidence that immigrants are responsible for rising crime in Sweden, you offer us...

Relative murder rate of Sweden compared to USA, we are still much lower but catching up!
which clearly shows murder rates increasing
years before the current wave of immigration - to my eyes I'd say it started increasing in the 1980's, had a brief dip in the early 90's then continued upwards.
What actual evidence do you have (I mean evidence, not muck raking) that this is due to immigration?
