To be fair to the Germans, there's been a lot of migrant crime in the country, and they're justifiably pissed off about it.
To be more fair, though, migrants are less likely to commit crime than native born people worldwide.
Any overrepræsentation of immigrants, racial minorities etc in crime statistics tend to be due to prejudiced and otherwise abusive enforcement and targeting by cops and politicians, and Germany is no exception.

That's unfortunately not true.
"Police suspect and arrest more brown people than white people because they are racist bigots. More shocking news at 11."
It's like you skipped over a whole paragraph.
Is that the author's opinion, or is it actually backed up by data?
ACAB.
Fuck off.
Thank you for your reply, it really adds to the discussion.
It really does.
That does give some insight into why shit like this is happening there then; but justifiably? You're tarring all migrants with the same brush there.
I said they're justified to be upset, and I think that's a fair comment.
