This is what the "skittles" or M&M analogy is about. Even if only 1% of your immigrants are intent to causing trouble, the more you let in the more in absolute numbers (even if the % is low) and you may not have the resources to deal with the problems.

We need to look at the math.

Let's say you let in 1 million immigrants from a particular region. If only 1% of them have mal intent, that 100,000 persons that can plot and plan and carry out mayhem or worse. That can overwhelm an area like, say, Europe.

So yes, even if you the vast majority of X population is peaceful, that doesn't matter in overall terms when you are bringing in lot of persons. You still have to deal with the net number of persons, no matter how small they are per capita, who are bad apples. And then the question becomes how much money and resources to you have that you can devote to this one problem?

You can see Sweden as an example. Rich country, people well off and educated, but more and more of their resources are being diverted to crime that could be going to schools, roads ... whatever.

The media intentionally misrepresent all this. It is simply math.

We're drowning in homicides.

Actually, you're experiencing multiculturalism.

Your government is to blame and the government blames the people. You are to welcome your rapeugees.

Police in Malmö are faced with six different murder investigations alone this year,

About half a Saturday nights take on Chicago's South Side. It appears that the police in Sweden actually try to solve gang murders.

206 police/100,000 in Sweden vs 266 police/100,000 in the US.

The number of cops per capita doesn’t seem to be a problem, considering how law-abiding Swedes are.

Hmmmm.... What could be the problem?

.........a smug, uber, feel good, liberal population of pacifists let these bastards into their country and from all appearances still support the politicians that are responsible for executing the plan.

So, where’s there beef?! You reap what you sow!

Surprisingly, Sweden opened its first refugee camp, and it was just outside Malmö and opened ten months ago. Who would have guessed that they would have to deal with this totally unrelated problem so close to their new guests?

Sweden’s generous immigration policies do not seem to be working out.

The obvious solution is more government and more taxes.

Between 10 and 20 officers for a homicide? That’s insane. Either you have a suspect in 48 hours or chances are you won’t find one.

You’re lucky if you get one cops time if you’re murdered in our cities. Unless you’re connected of course.
