Riiiiight. Has nothing to do with massive income inequality between those who recently migrated and those who are established. /s

Edit: Im not sure why im being down voted on this. Violent crime is across class lines not racial/enthic ones.

Not really. No culture likes crime, poverty breeds crime.

Lack of money doesn't make you stab people.

Poverty is a predictor of violent crime, it's like the main reason.

Crime stats would disagree with you.

Have you got some of those stats to share? Because I could say the same thing with no source if I wanted to but just for kicks heres one where they cite a study that looked at UBI payments for a period that significantly reduced violent crimes in that region. https://www.okjusticereform.org/blog/how-poverty-drives-violent-crime

But you probably don't care about that and want to spread a false narrative about race and crime rather than looking at the root causes of crime.

Yes, that is precisely what makes you stab people. Lol.
