You ****ing move to Sweden and go and meet these rival gangs, get a quote and see which offers the best price and let us all know how you get on.
Things may be different in Sweeden than the US but based on personal knowledge of similar groups (with international ties), this is how I would approach the situation. No you don't go around getting quotes lol. I'm guessing at least one or two affected Swedish player(s) know, or have friends or family who could put them in contact with the right people but who knows. Slick hatin' tho!

Belive me you would insta do whatever they wanted you to do and forget about "Give me liberty or give me death" in a second.
Also. Do you really think it would be a smart thing to get involved with another gang. Nothing good comes out of doing such things.
These gangs do some ****ed up indefensible stuff. At the same time they aren't pricks 100% of the time & the point about protecting the livelihood of their brotherhood, and extending that to friends, or friends of friends as a service or simple favor, is very important to them and obtaining help really isn't that risky compared to not having protection if put in a tough spot. When it comes down to it they're running a business & starting **** with an equally dangerous group is generally a poor decision for these guys, they realize that. Good can definitely come from doing this & it can completely kill an issue. The end result may even be you paying off the gang threatening you through the one protecting/mediating. Either way, once settled between these groups you'll be able to sleep in peace with a pretty high assurance that the issue won't come up again.
You are right if some thugs randomly showed up @ my door threatening to kill me I would probably do what they want (but maybe not if I saw an out, depends on the situation & Im different than alot of people in these types of spots). The minute they walked out the door though I'd pick up the phone. If I received vague threats beforehand, that phone call would've already been made. In the US it would be to the FBI, local police, and a third party, depending on the situation one or more of those organizations may be excluded.
