give a feck for the feckless
Let's recap - have a look at this page, where the figures are expressed in year by year figures for the period concerned that led to Rohde's claim.
If you can demonstrate that these figures are wrong, then I'll be happy to see that.

There's the health service version of how many rapes are by strangers and involve violence.
The DIXI rape crisis centre in Oslo reports well over a thousand referrals from the city alone in 2004.
Tell me how that squares with a total of 41 violent rapes by strangers over three years in Oslo. It simply doesn't. So what is Rohde talking about? Simply endlessly repeating the same set of dubious numbers isn't an argument, it's bloody childish. Either show a link to something that describes the methodology and definitions that apply to the statistics, or shut the fuck up because it's just a single somewhat dodgy statement by a single police officer in a department that is accused by the medical services of categorising sexual offences with no congruence to the victim's statements, that has faced criticism for its use of racial profiling, and which has managed to stop a black youth 17 times in 3 weeks on suspicion of stealing his own bike.
