"You did state that saying that culture can affect behavior sounds racist.. "
nah making it the single factor as you try to do sounds racist.
"culture can affect behaviour" doesn't NOT equal " immigrant culture is the MAIN reason for higher rates of crime among black or asian youth".
That culture affects behaviour is obvious ( that's the definition of culture ie the different ways that groups of people do similar things). Your taking that and saying “well then THAT's why that asian guy robbed that old man” or “THAT's why that muslim kid half my age beat me up last Tuesday”. Funnily enough when an Anglo kid robs an old man you probably don't attribute THAT to the criminals culture though do you?
