    This dance is so old and boring.

    "I don't agree with this super obvious thing"
    "post a link"
    "no no no no I don't like that source"
    "here's why its wrong and I'm right"


    Fine, here ya go...

    Oh, and I realize that I shouldn't tell people to "google it" because Google blocks this sort of information.

    I used duckduckgo to find it and dozens of others but saying "duckduckgo it" just doesn't have the same ring. /shrug

    Interesting. So Lower Saxony is the entire country of Germany now?

    By the way, is 2016 today or was that several years ago?

    That bloomberg article quotes the study I mentioned in my longer post.
    In said study, researchers looked at data from Lower Saxony, one of sixteen states in Germany, it also says that in the bloomberg article. It would be like carrying out a study in Oregon or Texas and then claiming it represents the US as a whole. This has to be taken into account: the numbers are from Lower Saxony only.
    The study says:
    [...] dessen lässt sich konstatieren, dass es in den letzten zehn Jahren zu einem beachtlichen Rückgang der Gewaltkriminalität in Deutschland gekommen ist.
    [...] it can be verified that violent crime has seen a considerable decrease in the last ten years. page 8.

    Murder/Manslaughter:
    Der Mord/Totschlag ist seit 1998 um bis zu 25,7 %, um mehr als ein Viertel rückläufig.
    Murder/manslaughter has been declining by 25,7 % since 1998. page 8.

    Rape:
    Der Vergleich der Jahre 2015 und 1998 ergibt bspw. einen Rückgang der Häufigkeitszahl von 10,3 %. Die höchste Anzahl an Vergewaltigungen wurde im Jahr 2004 mit 8.831 registriert, die niedrigste 2015 mit 7.022. Im Vergleich der Jahre 2015 und
    2016 ist es zu einem Anstieg der Vergewaltigungen gekommen, so dass fast das Niveau von 1998 wieder erreicht ist. Dieses liegt aber noch immer niedriger als das Niveau, das zu Anfang der 2000er festzustellen war.

    Comparing the years 2015 and 1998, we see a decline of 10,3%. The highest number of rapes was seen in 2004 (8831 cases), the lowest in 2015 (7022 cases).
    Comparing the years 2015 and 2016, we see an increase, thus the level of 1998 was reached again, which is lower than the level we saw in the early 2000s. page 9.
    https://www.zhaw.ch/storage/shared/sozialearbeit/News/gutachten-entwicklung-gewalt-deutschland.pdf

    This study looks at crime between 1998 and 2016. Generally, crime has been going down considrably in this period of time, however, the year 2016 saw a temporary increase in many categories. The overal trend is still down.
    Claiming rape and/or murder went up 10% is not accurate.

    Saxony being a city that was inundated with one of the largest volumes of migrants - a making it a greater barometer for the migrant crime issue.

    But stick with me I'm taking you for a ride.

    Which proves what exactly? Beyond your own hatred of immigrants, of course.

    That's not empirical evidence. It is non-imperical evidence. Non-empirical evidence is subjective, depending on the observer. The pictures are not evidence because we don't have specific, credible information of what is being shown, where, when, by whom and for what purpose. Without that information the pictures are subjective, depending on the observer.

    I.E., they are not evidence. Maybe some people don't have common sense, but others of us do and are not swayed by propaganda.

    Actually what I'm doing is showing you that year by year the actual migrant crime data shows consistent increases paralleling increases in migrant intake whereas the heavily redacted and manipulated reports from a government office that has a history of downplaying migrant crime as well as a political interest in the migrant inundation claims otherwise.

    This thread is about Germany. What is the source media outlet of these photos? A RW propaganda site no doubt. Pay attention to the German resident who is on this thread, who lives there and knows what it is like. Stop paying attention to propaganda sites.

    You obviously don't know what credible, concrete, verifiable, empirical evidence is. You prefer to believe in RW propaganda.

    Yea look at this "propaganda" coming at you in the form of photographs and video.

    Damn, such "propaganda".

    All those hundreds of women that got raped and/or molested in one night, all the thousands since, all the molested kids, all the stabbing victims, all the burnt out stores, all the roberies, all the bat and brick beatings...

    ...all "propaganda".

    Please provide sources for the claim that the reports of the German governments are manipulated, you haven't done so yet.
    And give me sources for your claim that they have a history of downplaying migrant crime.
    Those are claims based on your personal perception. Sources, not Russia Today clips. Please keep in mind I live in Germany.

    Leave? To the US perhaps? Most certainly not.
    If you seriously think you know more than I do (when I live here and you don't), you are very, very mistaken.
    When did you last visit Germany?
    Ever visited the place?
    Unfortunately, you look at 1% of the tip of the iceberg and seriously think you can lecture me on domestic policies here.
    For the record, you haven't shown me any reliable sources for your claims and, if this is of any importance, I have a very good life here. I love it.
    Sources please. Thanks.

    Europe is certainly safer than the US: mass shootings in the last few days

    Road rage leads to shooting at Colorado dentist office
    Fri, Jun 15
    The 23-year-old suspect opened fire on a mother and her three children in the dentist parking lot on Thursday. One child was pronounced dead as the mother and another child are in critical condition.

    One dead and 22 injured in shooting at New Jersey Art All Night festival

    1 Killed, 2 Injured in Shooting in Lowell, Massachusetts
    https://www.necn.com/news/new-england/Three-Shot-1-Dead-in-Lowell-Massachusetts-485859731.html

    Five people were shot, one of them fatally, minutes after the sun rose Monday morning at a party in the University Village neighborhood on the Near West Side.

    And there are so many more mass shootings just in the last few days that don't even make national or world wide news.

    They're real pics of migrants attempting to go somewhere more useful than they've been. For sure the amateur propagandist will use them as they do. They always have a stash of pics to frighten peeps with, they're simple creatures. I already mentioned the pics have nothing to do with Germany.

    Yay, little Tommy getting his nazi face beaten in. Again. He loves that move. He's so selfless, isn't he? I mean donating his pinched nazi face like that so the rest of his homo-eroticised turd fondling brigade can cream their little shorts all over again and squeak their little rebel squeak about freedom.

    You won't have stats for 2018 until 2019 but the trend is up with the migrant influx.

    It's just absolutely bizarre how people can just create ad hoc arguments out of thin air and try to push them as well known fact. What is the % of crazy and stupid in our population? I do really worry for our (not to distant) future.

    Someone in a suit tells them what to think and say and write and that's about all they need to go forth and multiply the inane lies.

    While nobody in the US was looking, he upped the ante in his trade war with China, too.

    Meanwhile, Kim Jung Un is in Beijing toasting his victory with Xi!

    Mr. Trump's claim that crime is up in Germany is objectively false. Crime actually fell in 2017 by 9.6 percent in Germany, with violent crime falling 2.4 percent, according to Germany's Federal Criminal Police Office. Also, crimes by non-German suspects fell by 22 percent in 2017. By any measure, Germany has far less violent crime than the U.S.

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cb...nald-trump-tweet-today-fact-check-2018-06-18/

    So is Germany lying about crime in their country.
