Comment on Britons greatly overestimate number of sex crimes committed by foreign nationals

So with normally working laws percentage of crimes committed by foreigners should be noticeably lower.

We already have mechanisms to prevent those convicted of crimes from being allowed to remain in the country. How do you propose preventing those who might commit a crime in the future from entering the country? It’s impossible.

It is possible. It is quite trivial, actually. Just intellect/erudition test. Clever people tend to be less criminally active. Especially primitive crime-wise like robberies, sex-related crimes, etc. I’m sure an a year or so that test might be tuned to be very effective and absolutely not restrictive.

  You have a clear bias and are working backwards from there in order to justify it.

  So in just a couple of hours, you’ve gone from “foreigners are all criminals” to “only stupid people commit crime”.
  
  I’m not even going to engage with the ridiculousness of your statement only to say that you must be a career criminal…

    I never claimed anything like that. I said that in most countries immigration laws are not good enough.
