Not disputing the nbers, why would I? But painting it as problem purely caused by migration, and I highly doubt we talk about people from Germany, Denmark or Norway, has some xenophobic undertones, doesn't it?

The gang crime is, almost entirely, driven by 1st or 2nd generation migrants.

There is no use in splitting hairs on this one. The issue is clear.

Your sources aren't worth reading because I don't like the conclusions they support. /s

Given the very loose definition of racism and xenophobia these days, you may be right, but in the same sense that you can call a woman sexist for not wanting to be followed by a man when walking alone at night. Calling her a sexist repeatedly does not make her behavior unfounded or unreasonable.
