> Sure, Germany doesn't particularly need criminal immigrants, but the criminality of immigrants is wildly blown out of proportion by racists, to put it bluntly.

Thanks. Had a good laugh at that line. :)

I remember that there was an analysis on the criminality of the Syrian refugees during the first wave. The police found that, no surprise, having more people increases the number of total criminal offences, but looking at the data in relative terms it was found that proportionally, Syrians are equally criminal as Germans.

You cannot overstate this point. It’s front and center of rightwing populism that „these people“ are mostly criminals, which is wrong of course.
