Remember when Melbourne didn’t have a problem with violent African gangs? Just ignore all those violent crimes committed by African “networked criminal offenders”. And of course you should believe the police commissioner when he says that Africans weren’t over-represented in violent crime.
I mean, it’s not as if the government would lie to you, is it?
The link between crime and immigration has gripped France for years and has only become more hotly debated in recent months. Now, the popular French historian, essayist and publicist Laurent Obertone, is saying that the problem is far worse than even the state is willing to admit.
“Migrants and the descendants of migrants are responsible for two-thirds of criminality, because criminality and delinquency are tied in the majority to those issuing from immigration. One can say that ethnic statistics are forbidden and so on, one should not talk about this, and we should only speak of the small criminal minority and that is all,” said Obertone while appearing on CNews.
Two-thirds? Oh, come now: it’s not that bad. Half, tops!
Obertone points to recent statements from French President Emmanuel Macron, who admitted last month that foreigners account for half the crimes in Paris.
“Yes, when we look at delinquency in Paris, we can see that half of the delinquent acts come from foreigners in an irregular situation or awaiting asylum approval,” said Macron while appearing on France 2 television channel. Macron’s remarks sparked a heated debate in French society about the role of immigration and insecurity.
But, is that even true? As we saw in Victoria, police and politicians are all-too-willing to bend the data to breaking-point to lie to our faces. For instance, police claims to the contrary, African immigrants in Victoria were 30 times as likely to be convicted of assault, 50 times as likely to be convicted of motor vehicle crimes, and a staggering 86 times as likely to be convicted of aggravated assault.
That only tells half the story, though.
Unlike, say, the US, Victoria doesn’t record the ethnicity of criminals, only their country of origin. So, the Australian-born children of African immigrants won’t show up as “African” at all.
France’s interior minister, Gérald Darmanin, also made a similar admission; however, both Macron and Darmanin have denied that immigration is actually tied to higher crime.
But France is fudging the data just as hard as Victoria.
In France, crime statistics are only kept on foreigners and French citizens, which means it is hard to decipher how many French citizens with a migrant background are also responsible for crime in the country.
“This is half an admission, because I have to point out that (Gérald) Darmanin is speaking of crimes committed by foreigners. I, on the other hand, was speaking about crimes issuing from a migrant background,” said Obertone. “This means not only those who are foreign nationals, but also those who are direct descendants of immigrants: those born in France, are French, but who have a recent migration background. And when one adds up these two populations, we arrive at (the figure) that two-thirds of crimes committed on our soil are perpetrated by these individuals, individuals issuing from migration.”
Obertone says that it is only this statistic that reveals the true scale of the crime committed by foreign nationals and their descendants.
But, sure, tell us more that there’s no link between mass immigration of certain demographics and increased crime.
France’s immigrant community has been responsible for some of the most egregious acts of violence in recent years, including the riots that took place at the Stade de France, which involved roving gangs of migrants brutally attacking and robbing football supporters from Great Britain and Spain. In addition, France has been beset by terror attacks, beheadings, and most recently, the rape and murder of 12-year-old Lola at the hands of an Algerian migrant woman who already had standing deportation orders.

Oh, stop whining. Just think of the diversity! The ethnic cafes!
Diversity is our strength, after all. The government keeps telling us so — and it’s not like they’d lie.
