That narrative makes total sense. Though just to reiterate a point I made earlier (some pages back probably). I wouldn't discount fights over something as basic as candy being one of the reasons, just because people here have fought over minor things as such and stabbed others, flooded cells, started riots, etc... all behaviors common among criminals. Not showing good judgement, anger management issues, going off at the slightest of offense, feeling the need to pick a fight to prove some sort of point... or the ones who just do things because they can get away with it. On the other hand some know exactly what they're doing... meanwhile another half just does it because they can. To me, doesn't mean that migrants == criminals as it's more a statement of the individual(s) who are indeed criminals in their own right... any population you let in, there will always be a crop of such. 1 is too many for some of us when you consider that the Western World has basically been at war with radical Islam for the past 15 years... so giving them any chance to find a foothold here is a big no no... though as the elections have clearly proven, our populations don't necessarily agree on that sentiment anymore. For me, it is hard to believe there are kids now in high school who weren't even alive during 9/11... and soon they too will be voting age.

If this happened in the US, it'd probably be dumbed down to "Muslim refugees" retaliating at a center, etc...I don't think the reasoning would really matter in the long run, as the aftermath would leave a huge mess and the details would be lost. For being a nation made up of other cultures, we're not so tolerant of those coming in and changing with our preconceived paradigms... but then we've never had to be concerned with easily crossable boundaries such as those in the Europe. Had 9/11 not happened, perhaps things would be very different too and maybe would be more willing to welcome more in... as I seem to recall the US being warmer about these things back then. Not really sure though what we would've done... but I ponder...
