    @ErikUden Aus solchen Statistiken liest ja auch nur jeder raus, was er will:
    Die einen sagen "absolut gesehen begehen etwa 2/3 aller Straftaten Deutsche."
    Andere sagen "Wir haben einen Ausländeranteil von .. keine Ahnung.. 20%, würde man das in Relation mit reinstellen.. "
    Wieder ander kommen mit anderen Statistiken daher, die die Straftaten noch in unterschiedliche Ethnien aufdröseln und dann kommt raus, daß vorallem die "heißblütigen Orientalen" mit Abstand die meisten Straftaten begehen.
    Ich nehme für mich persönlich mit, daß ich in einem Ort mit einem Anteil von mindestens 25% mit Migration bzw. -Hintergrund leben und es läuft bei uns gut. ALLERDINGS haben wir auch keinen echten Brennpunkt, der ist ~10km weiter in DA-Süd3 zB, wo es erheblich mehr Probleme gibt. Das liegt wahrscheinlich weniger an der Migration und mehr an der sozialen Schwäche.

    @HoSnoopy @ErikUden Der Punkt ist hier nicht der rechte Balken.

    Der Punkt ist der Unterschied zwischen linken/mittleren Balken und rechten Balken.

    Und auch Du fällst auf die Erzählung der Rechtsnationalisten herein. Der rechte Balken zeigt nicht die Straftaten der in DE lebenden Menschen, sondern die dort begangenen. Denk mal an gesprengte Bankautomaten, Autodiebstahl oder Wohnungseinbrüche... und es sind Daten der Polizei, also Verdachtsfälle. Niemand berichtigt die, wenn das Verfahren durch einen Staatsanwalt eingestellt wird oder ein Richter einen Freispruch ausspricht.

    @christiansagt @HoSnoopy @ErikUden

    Genau. Die Normalisierung eines Narrativs unter dem Deckmäntelchen der neutralen Berichterstattung ist unter den Medien weit verbreitet und sollte von deren Konsumenten (oder "Mitgestalter" im Falle von Kommentierern und/oder Nutzern "Sozialer Medien") nicht übernommen werden. Es reicht nicht aus "neutral" zu berichten und die Beendung eines damit angestossenen Gedankengangs den Lesern zu überlassen (so wie es z.B. der Feigling Merz ganz bewusst gemacht hat).

    @ErikUden ich habe dazu eine einfache und klare Meinung: die Herkunft eines Täters ist meines Erachtens völlig egal - Straftat ist Straftat. Die Nennung der Herkunft ist im Zweifelsfall einfach nur Framing.
    Bei der Statistik selbst fehlt mir aber auch noch etwas Kontext. Mindestens die Fragestellung, welche Art von Straftaten (unabhängig von der Herkunft des Täters) es überhaupt in dien Medien schaffen. Im Gegensatz dazu enthalten die Polizeistatistiken ja alle Straftaten. Dann Daten bereinigen.

    Ich stimme dir zu. Der Kontext zu den Statistiken fehlt. So kann man mehr mutmaßen als wirklich Schlüsse zu ziehen. Die Herkunft des Täters ist aus meiner Sicht aber nur solange egal, wie sie sich ausgewogen über die Täter verteilt. Sobald Menschen einer bestimmten Herkunft in der Statistik klar überrepräsentiert sind, muss man dem nachgehen, es ansprechen und entsprechend darauf reagieren.

    @klyx @ErikUden kleine Korrektur: die Polizeistatistik beinhaltet grundsätzlich keine Straftaten, sondern nur das, was unsere (eher rassistisch geprägte und nicht besonders gut ausgebildete) Polizei als Straftat vermutet.
    Zur Straftat wird es erst, wenn ein:e Richter:in entsprechend geurteilt hat und es nicht auf einen Freispruch oder eine Einstellung hinausläuft.
    Es gibt allerdings keinen Rückkanal, der diese Polizeistatistik mit diesen Urteilen korrigiert.

    @capnthommo @ErikUden Nah, I guess the only reason it rarely happens here in Brazil is because diversity: anyone from around the world can look like a Brazilian.

    That being said, things are simpler here, people skip the scapegoat and go directly to the point: they blame the poor. It's the poor on welfare. It's the poor that voted wrong. It's the poor with their ugly houses.

    @DMTomas where do you think the numbers come from? “Crime statistics” affect one another. If you're “concerned” about these statistics, you should still recognize that the media coverage is overblown. So, racist police officers are additionally manipulated into thinking that people of color are synonymous with crime, they check them more often, they may do something during police controls, and courts also have a huge bias against them and it's proven they give worse sentences if it's a person of color for the same crime. So, in crime statistics, marginalized groups will appear more violent, because these numbers are biased

    @DMTomas @ErikUden That's exactly the feedback loop you find yourself in that biases police against people of colour. Even if only one cop was racist and checked more PoC, since everyone does illegal things all the time without knowing (you too I promise), the stats will represent a slight uptick in "crime" for them. Then the police goes okay we put a little more effort into this group since they have a slightly higher chance to do crimes apparently. Which then pumps the numbers up even more for crime done by PoC, since they check them way more. Which feeds back into their prioritizing it more and the cycle continues. Basically these stats are useless without stats about how the police stop people and why, the bias reinforces itself.

    @DMTomas @ErikUden iirc when we're talking about "foreigners" here, a huge chunk of that are just tourists. those are obviously not listed as foreigners in the population statistics. also foreigners are more likely to be poor (due to racist hiring practices and policies that actively prevent foreigners from working) and most petty crime is committed by poor people. that's not a problem with foreigners, that's a problem with social injustice and class struggle. also also foreigners can commit "crimes" that native citizens can't commit, like crimes against the residence act, so foreigners are even more overrepresented.
    and needless to say crime in general is declining since the 1990s

    In 2023, German citizens without migrant background were 70% of the population of Germany and appear to commit about 66% of the police reported crimes; people with migrant background were 30% of the population and appear to commit about 34% of the police reported crimes.

    That's pretty darn close to "crimes are committed by people regardless of where they're from"

    @DMTomas @ErikUden As far as I can tell, your figure of 85% "Germans" / 15% "foreigners" refers not to country of origin but ethnicity - so people who are ethnically German but were born in other countries and moved to Germany make up an additional 15% of the population. They're also "foreigners", for a total of 30% "foreigners" in Germany.

    @DMTomas @ErikUden now separate young adult men from the rest of the population and re-analyze the data. Last time I did (for my country, Spain), it resolved all discrepancies: the overwhelming majority of crime is committed by men aged between 18 and 40, and the proportion of foreigners in this group is of about 30%, extremely similar to the proportion of crime here, too.

    @ErikUden This makes sense, you only mention what's distinctive about a person.

    If there's a news report about domestic violence, the report won't emphasize that the couple had no kids, was not religious, was not famous, or that neither of the participants had any mental illness. If the couple has nine kids, are scientologists, are well-known celebrities and the man is known to have addiction issues, all of those will appear in the news report.

    If a German commits a crime in Germany, there's no need to say that a German committed the crime, that is implied. If it's a foreigner doing it, that's something distinctive about the situation.

    Whereas in Europe, a lot of information is withheld for privacy reasons, in the US, any somewhat competent reporter can access most police reports in their entirety, including mugshots and unredacted names of the accused, which they're allowed to publish *before* that person is convicted by a jurry of their peers.

    True… I think what I’m referring to is frequently you hear a report over here talking about a crime they will *very often* say what their skin color or ethnicity is. I’ve noticed that when the person is “white” they (reporters) often just refer to their age and gender … that’s what I think I was trying to get at … however this is just what I’ve observed and could be skewed just in the observation.

    I disagree. The media outlets connected to Springer or Welt certainly fulfill your criteria.

    Public media may be swayed, but they are far from being far right. If you want to take a look at far right media, spend some time on Fox News.

    The German media landscape is far from being perfect, but it offers more diversity than that of so many other countries.

    @ErikUden If 15% of the population are foreigners, but 30% of the crimes are committed by foreigners, then foreigners are more likely to commit crimes. Does that mean we should discriminate these people? No. Of course not. But there will always be some groups of people being slightly more criminal then others. Maybe because they experienced war or other traumatizing things. So we should help these people as much as possible.

    They don’t need to be “traumatized”. They just may come from a society where ruled by tribal or religious laws and have not socialised the European concepts of rule of law.

    Is it their fault? No, but the concept of “anyone’s fault” is irrelevant if you look at the consequences of letting large amounts of people who reject the idea of rule of law into a society that is built on it.

    Anyone should be welcome to EU but they must be explained the rules of the European community and must explicitly declare readiness to comply with them.
