From your link
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.

The report stated that the vast majority of migrants did not commit any crimes.

I do not remember people ever saying "I am afraid", but they are saying it today. After 9/11 we were in shock, but as a nation we always knew we'd get over it. Now we are looking into the abyss of unknown, and some are saying they are afraid.
You live in Miami and maybe some of the locals there, who also despise Israel, are seeing that the liberal democrat agenda of paying Iran to not attack us is bad foreign policy.

If hope and change didn't put fear into Miami residents than making America Great certainly won't scare them.

I encourage people to read this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histor..._United_States
You've made enough posts on this forum on the same topic. Enough with the propaganda.

It's hard to be informed these days. We see all these provocative headlines and read comments online from those who promote the same view that things seem SO DIRE. It's only because I go out of my way to seek out sources that aren't getting a lot of play that I know things are never quite as they seem. I hate the collusion and ridiculously hysterical tantrums being thrown every time ANYTHING happens, any real issues can go unseen under the sea of blablabla and that's not good.


There sure are things to criticize and worry about. Yes, your pet issues may actually be challenged and changed but that's because the country doesn't agree on it, not because you have the moral high ground and everyone else is an ignorant loser. I think many people are seriously concerned about things they don't even have a clear view or historical perspective on. Those coming of age under Obama probably don't even know how off kilter certain things have become so doing something as simple as following our own laws or even BEING NORMAL seem like some kind of authoritarian coup.

Kinda reaching on this one-
First-you make it sounds like being worried about the environment is a bad thing-it is not. Second, with or without immigration the wealthy will still exploit the environment for their own gain. Besides do you really think the US will bring in the 500 million or so immigrants (if not more) to cause THAT kind of overpopulation??? REALLY??

So by that derailed train of "thought" America should eliminate minimum wages, and keep every worker in poverty. Because if you pay them decently, think of all the potential injuries caused by car crashes caused by everyone going to the stores, restaurants, and vacations because of the money they have to spend on such things

I keep asking the "immigrant advocates" how many "immigrants" would be too many, and they never give me an answer.

So they obviously don't want to set any limit, and couldn't care less about the effect on the environment and our natural resources.
