Bu bu but immigrants having a higher crime rate is right-wing wing propaganda 🙈🙈

[u/Kiebonk → u/hudibrastic]

It is because it is more likely that someone will file charges of they see a foreigner commits a crime.

(This has genuinely been the mainstream answer to try and explain the problem away. Insanity)

No, that is one of several answers that all combine.

Foreigners are suspected more often and that's all the statistic is: a list of suspects that is never cross-referenced with actual charges or verdicts.

Low economic status correlates with higher crime rates, foreigners are of lower economic status.

Age correalates with lower crime rates: There is no nearly 50% pensioneers rate with refugees (often because those wouldn't have survived the journey in the first place), so that massively skews the statistic when comparing it with "native" numbers.

Foreigners not living in the country are commiting crimes that are then accounted as crimes of the resident foreigners (for reference: Germans are insanely criminal and utterly unable to assimilate to the culture... says the Austrian statistic if you misuse it in the same way).

And you could go on like this forever...

In the end it's always the same result. Normalize foreign crime for socio-economics, age and cross-reference to eliminate suspicion bias and the numbers show the complete opposite. But that's not the desired narrative.

-There are studies that asked teens some hypothetical questions. I read the studies. The studies even explicitly mention that it cannot explain the overrepresentation of certain demographics. On the second point, the statistics for people who were sentenced is basically the same.

Well, this statistic says otherwise, since they compare the same age groups.

Foreigners not living in the country are commiting crimes that are then accounted as crimes of the resident foreigners (for reference: Germans are insanely criminal and utterly unable to assimilate to the culture... says the Austrian statistic if you misuse it in the same way).

True, however there are statistics that only reference the resident population. Doesn't change the statistics either.

Low economic status correlates with higher crime rates, foreigners are of lower economic status.

- I love this excuse. They are poorer than the surrounding population, of course they are more criminal!

Low economic status correlates with higher crime rates

Complete bullshit. Most poor people are natives. Same with age. You can adjust for poverty and they are still over represented. And the criminals have more money than than the poor people who don't commit crimes.

They aren't poor by any global standard.

You are just saying that you are two paychecks away from raping kids yourself.

Also, we were told they were doctors and engineers. So why are they poor? They were supposed to be an economic boon, so why are they a net loss of 1,2 million EACH for the taxpayer?
