I'm an Earthling, much like the people in question.

Realized I can look in profiles. Was just curious. 

Noticing that there are a ton of people arguing against a person from Sweeden about what is true or not in Sweeden.

We've also had Puppyroach comment here, opposing what Slimebeast said, and he's from Sweden. So, how can two opposing people both be right?

He's not Korean, but he's from East Asia:

So now you have finally fulfilled your literal interpretation, how about per capita stats?

I'm not even the one who brought up the per capita stats, it was Slimebeast that did. So, why would I have to give the evidence?

Nope.

We're talking about groups who both came into the country with zero pennies in their pockets and no education. Still the x10 times discrepancy.

It doesn't matter very much which class of society the Chinese immigrants come from, they still don't commit violent crime in Western countrues.

OMG, why is it so hard to admit that a society's or a people's culture and values affect aggression and criminal behaviour?

Because economic standing is far and away the largest factor that plays into crime rates. There is little hard evidence to suggest that culture has any significant effect on crime outside of the fact that people of certain cultures/ethnicities tend to be worse off economically.

You are wrong, which I've already demonstrated in this thread.

Perhaps it is because you are generalizing an entire group of people?

lol by definition you have to generalize.

Come back when you have even an elementary understanding of statistics and population study.

So, what's your solution? Force them all out, no matter what the cost? I hope that they'll fight as much as they can in order to defend themselves.

He generalized the entire races, saying that "they" (as in Chinese immigrants) don't commit violent crimes. I showed him someone, which made his statement false.

You know what he meant, but you intentionally interpreted his comment literally. Also, someone is singular, not plural.

Thanks for helping to address things like this.

I mean com'on, are we on a children's level of arguing? This is embarrassing.

The question is more of why didn't you interpret Slimebeast's comment in terms of per capita in the first place? Instead of wasting your time interpreting his comment literally, you should have asked him about per capita stats.

g what Slimebeast said, and he's from Sweden. So, how can two opposing people both be right?

I grabbed what he said in this topic. And you can read it below. To sum what he is saying. This was a cmmon riot in Sweeden. 

Watch some of the videos of this riot and tell me how things like this happening 20 times a year is not something worth talking about. Sweeden is not the United States. It is vastly smaller. 20 riots like this would make me worries, imo.

Let's calm down now. It's not rioting in Sweden, it was an incident in Rinkeby, a suburb to Stockholm where around 30 people got angry because of a protest and some of them (far from all) got violent. One idiot lit a fire and the police were forced to shoot one shot. Thos happens around 20 times each year and fatalities because of police shooting happens around two times a year. So I think some perspective is needed here :).

No. Not forcing immigrants out in general. What's done is done. But you can deport individuals who commit serious crime, which could and should be done on a much wider scale than is currently done in Sweden.

But close the gates from here on. That's what most important. Restrict immigration to a minimum.

OK, I will then.

Where? Where have you shown that immigrant populations commit more crime than native born people ceteris paribus?
