If anyone in the UK is looking to buy one of these Toothpick Crossbows you'll just be wasting your money. UK Customs won’t let them through as it’s classed as an offensive weapon.

warchyld67statistically, refugees commit less crime than full citizens. At least in first world countries. So keep your fuc king comments to yourself.

jeffgauthYa, okay. Cite your source; and make sure it includes the crime rates of second/third generation offspring.

Mav3rickYou're the one that made a unsubstantiated claim. Burden of proof is on you. Otherwise you are just a racist. Peace out!

jeffgauthThank you for your research, Jeff. I appreciate your perspective. I did, however, ask you to provide statistics that speak to the follow-on generations and their associated crime. No matter, here is some information for you.
Summary: Yes, first gen has lower crime rates; second gen in the US trends slightly below native born. In European counties, where the author of the original offending post reffered to, the second generation crime rates exceeds that of native born.
Source: The Oxford Handbook of Crime and Criminal Justice
Quote: “Second-generation immigrants typically have higher crime rates than first-generation immigrants. In the US context, however, most second-generation immigrants continue to enjoy lower crime rates than the native-born population. In stark contrast, research findings in European countries indicate that some second-generation immigrant groups have crime rates that drastically exceed those of the native-born population.”

nrlewis1982I find the act of attempted selling is offensive.
