@loweel I'm sure I could find lots of studies that show that people with secure (no big fears, life is easygoing, friends and family nearby) lives are less likely to commit any crime than people who feel left out of, or discriminated against by, society.
Except maybe commiting large-scale economical fraud. I think that's an upper class kind of thing.

@pztrn It's not the "EU migrants" or refugees that set off bombs. Many of the ISIS followers are born and raised in EU countries but _leave_ the EU to join their cause. And even if it were the refugees, why aren't we seeing more chaos? With several hundreds of thousands of refugees and immigrants, everyday life goes on just as usual. We spend a little more money on hou…

@pztrn I'm not sure what you mean with "migrant" in this case btw, I think we have different definitions. When I wrote "EU migrant" I mean people well within their rights to move within the eurozone (Romanian non-citizens that aren't allowed to get a personal ID number in their home country for example), but I'm guessing you mean people fleeing their countries in the m…

@mono Regardless if they're educated or not, we should provide shelter and a way into society. My main point is that we - I'm talking Sweden now at least - have more terrorism by native Swedes (burning down planned housing facilities etc.) than any kind of criminality from the refugees themselves. (apart from the occasional fight because we cramp so many people in sho…

> I don't think two major terror attacks with hundreds of casualties in 4 months is 'as usual' either. Since this assumes that there is a direct correlation between migrants and the increase of terrorist acts I feel I need to inform you that ISIS is pretty well financed and not built up of poor refugees trying to find a place to live in a new, foreign world. Thus terro…

@mono This just means we need to show them what a nice society we have and welcome them so they don't resent their new home. Making friends and joining society will rapidly decrease the interest of attacking named society.
Also, you're forgetting we already have criminality and terrorism and organised crime in our society. I'd guess from the top of my head that the percentages are comparable.
-
@mono Sounds like you think people are pre-programmed to be terrorists and no matter what we do (give them a safe, stimulating place to live where they can think about other things than war and anger), they'll suddenly turn sour and start killing people. That's a fucked up way of thinking. Terrorism isn't in our genes. Protectiveness of our own is, but who we choose to see as "our own" is not written in stone.
-
@mono You're saying that ISIS/whatever has manipulated, programmed and sent hundreds of thousands of people marching into Europe without sustenance, with risk of death in order to just wait for whatever undefined time before they start bombing the shit out of the place they have travelled to instead of just living there in peace? If they had such powerful control over …

@mono Sorry, I don't have a source handy on criminality rates in various societies around the world. Either way, I don't think this is a very good discussion medium for fact-packed subjects.
-
@mono ISIS is not a state. Also, spokespeople for organisations that claim greater jurisdiction than they actually possess tend to use big words and address many more people than they actually have any control or power over. If Angela Merkel said "We repeat our call to Germans across the world", do you think the average German living in the United States or the Philipp…
-
@mono To read those numbers properly I would also like an in-depth academical study that takes into account the social welfare in those countries. I.e. if a person comes from a violent country: is it more or less likely to commit a violent crime in the new country; is it the surrounding social environment that causes/prevents acts of aggression and crime? You can't poi…

@mono Statistics is built on data that has already happened. If you fundamentally change one of the factors in the study, such as moving people to an entirely different society where they will be the minority, that collected information doesn't get you very far. Maybe it can help to build a profile on how to welcome these new people, how they should be treated and what…

@mono Ebola is contagious regardless of your political or religious opinions, or which country you were born in or which society you grew up in.

@fnadde42 There have been a killing or two at some refugee housings, and certain individuals from these places have killed outside of the accommodations. But these are still extremely few compared to the amount of new people and how certain people are that many of them belong to "terrorist sleeper cells". :)
-
@mono > Germans aren't killed for disobeying a call to war.
Now where's #Godwin when you need him? :)

@loweel this is also why some countries have higher crimerates, because their social justice isn't on par with inhabitants' needs.
