Raise Your Hand If You’re Surprised By This.

According to this, a whole bunch of migrant children who’ve entered Sweden have been discovered not to be children after all.

Swedish migration authorities apparently performed age verification tests on 581 migrants, and 442 of them were actually 18 or older, even though they claimed to be “children.”

If you’re a person who is shocked by this, you’re naive, not paying attention, or both.

These age verification tests included tooth and joint analysis, which I’m totally fascinated by. And these tests were only conducted on suspicious individuals – those who migration authorities believed might be lying and who didn’t necessarily look like they were younger than 18. And while they’ve tested those 581 migrants, they still have 3700 more to test. And since three quarters of the 581 tested older than 18, then it’s a reasonable assumption that at least 75% of the remaining 3700 will test as adults as well.

Amazingly, testing migrants in this way is controversial across Europe, with some politicians saying that the tests are “inappropriate and unethical.”

WTF.

You know what’s unethical? Lying about your age to enter a country. Vetting is not only ethical, but should be considered mandatory for the protection of Actual Citizens. How this is even a point of contention, I have no idea. Particularly because this has been a long-standing issue.

From that sourcelink, check out these “children.”

Yeah. Someone fetch those young boys some Legos and a couple of juice boxes.
