Heads back in sand in 3...2...1...

It's more like people's heads are in sand when it comes to crime like this performed by natives or non-muslim immigrants.

 

I mean, when people say muslim immigrants perform more of these (sexual harrasment/abuse) crimes than natives, they are right.... until you adjust for the age and gender composition of these immigrants. At least in Norway, 20-40 year old muslim immigrant men have a *barely* higher rape/sexual harassment rate than 20-40 year old Norwegian men, however people use misleading bogus statistics that don't account for the demographic spread of immigrants (ie. 20-40 year old men of any origin have higher rates for sexual related crimes, and it just so happens that this age and gender group is overrepresented in the immigrant population compared to the native population, making it seem like immigrants as a whole are more inclined to perform such acts than natives, when in reality, when you compare them by different age and gender groups, the rates are about the same for natives and muslim immigrants). People wilfully ignore this so that they  can try and blame it on the culture of the countries these people are from.

 

Not that I in no way condone of rape or any sexually harrassing acts, and I think Europe has ways to go on the integration side of things (which is the real problem...)

Not to mention, of course, that in this particular case homosexuality and paedophilia are prohibited in the Quran, so these guys have acted against the teachings of Islam. And of course the moral standard in the Quran relating to heterosexual activity is that sex should only be between a man and woman. So any sex crime committed by a Muslim is against Islamic law. Hence one cannot blame an immigrant's Muslim heritage for that behaviour, rather blame their lack of adherence to their Muslim faith for this behaviour. They might find some warped interpretation of the Quran to justify blowing things up and killing people in airports, but there's nothing in the Quran to justify crimes of this nature. So given rapists come in all colours and nationalities and Islamic law condemns sex outside of marriage and prohibits homosexual sex outright, it would seem that the immigrant and religious status of these people are not actually relevant to the case.
