ORIGINAL: blnymph Interesting Reuters article indeed: quote:
The report from the BKA federal police showed that migrants from northern Africa, Georgia and Serbia were disproportionately represented among the suspects. Absolute numbers of crimes committed by Syrians, Afghans and Iraqis - the three biggest groups of asylum seekers in Germany - were high but given the proportion of migrants that they account for, their involvement in crimes was “clearly disproportionately low”, the report said. It gave no breakdown of the number of actual crimes and of would-be crimes, nor did it state what percentage the 69,000 figure represented with respect to the total number of crimes and would-be crimes committed in the first three months of 2016. The report stated that the vast majority of migrants did not commit any crimes. It is the first time the BKA has published a report on crimes committed by migrants containing data from all of Germany’s 16 states, so there is no comparable data. The report showed that 29.2 percent of the crimes migrants committed or tried to commit in the first quarter were thefts, 28.3 percent were property or forgery offences and 23 percent offences such as bodily harm, robbery and unlawful detention. Drug-related offences accounted for 6.6 percent and sex crimes accounted for 1.1 percent. and: quote:
The number of crimes committed by migrants declined by more than 18 percent between January and March, however, according to the report. So if anyone misses hysteria about a rise in crimes because of refugees in Europe it might be because there is no reason for hysteria. Did you notice the "clearly disproportionally low" ...? The 29.x % "thefts" were mostly shoplifting - nothing new, and declining. The 28.x % forgery offences are related to their documents/passports - also no news here. There is no need for everyone on the planet getting hysterical because some of your politicians are (and some of you seem to think this is what they should get elected for). But you're supposed to be skeered. You better be real skeered little woman, and now you do just as we tell you and pay us (over $100 billion/additional/yr. and counting) now. Trust your govt., it's for your own good and ya'know...to protect you.
