(cannot find official data but according to CIA World Factbook, Germany is 91.5% germans and 8.5% foreigners so it's based on my rough calculation with Gibbs & Martin's index of diversity formula



HMMMMM....... I see...... I see..... now that explains why USA have more crimes than Germany.... apple and orange.... makes me wonder if you ever seen a group of at least 10 black people at any time in Germany.

common sense? sorry friend, no I use facts and numbers. common sense plays a funny trick on us. numbers don't lie. You know what's funny? My friends in Korea and other country were afraid to visit NYC. why? because they said - "ooohhh so many black people! lot of mafia! many murders!!" so funny.....

I can see that you only calcalate % population between America and Germany, not calcalate % crime rate per population.

There´re many high and low population in the world... but you need to calcalate how many % crime rate per capita per population they have, to compare America with Germany or other countries...

Do your homework

Really, interesting to know that your Korean friends thought negative about NYC but we Europeans thought positive about NYC. I would love to visit NYC...
