Media grieves for Muslims after 13yo Chinese-Canadian girl is killed by Syrian refugee

Same old story from the western press. A Syrian refugee murdered (and one would suspect, given the stories from Europe, sexually assaulted) Marrisa Shen, a 13 year old child residing in Burnaby Canada.

After a long search, the police finally nabbed their suspect and it was quickly up to the media to comfort the people who need it most: the Syrian community.

This excerpt is from the opening part of the original story on Burnaby Now, the title of which was changed to remove the word 'refugee':

Richardson said Ali was a Burnaby resident who came to Canada as a refugee 17 months ago, meaning he would allegedly have killed Shen approximately three months after arriving in the country. But Richardson said she hoped the incident wouldn't result in a backlash against refugees. “Historically, we have seen that happen," she said. "I’m hoping that in this case we do not see that happen. I think, by and large, our refugees that come to the country are hard-working citizens that are happy to be in Canada, and I would just hope that we look at this incident for what it is: It’s a one-off situation.”

Not one word of condolence or sympathy for the poor family. Instead, the Police talking head spends her time trying to convince us that this was like a lightning strike out of blue sky.

Immigrant Services was quick to get in on the act:

"... we wish to caution the public against stigmatizing an entire ethnic community for the alleged criminal act of one individual from that community."

Not content to spend a third of their article on coddling Syrian refugees, Burnaby Now decided to follow this up with an opinion piece hammering home the same message:

"some people will use this fact to make racist generalizations against refugees as part of a political agenda."

Political agenda? You mean,  wanting to keep their country relatively safe for 13 year old children like Marrisa Shen? 

The fact is that Syrian males are dramatically over-represented in sexual assaults in Europe. You can find plenty of instances by typing 'syrian gang rape' into Google. Even better, some countries (e.g., Norway) keep statistics by national origin. 

If you import males with a high propensity to commit sexual abuse (e.g., the Pakistanis in the U.K.), you are going to have increases in sexual abuse. It's as simple as that.

What people are too politically correct to understand is that in the context of immigration, population statistics are what matters. An individual Syrian or Somali might be an absolute paragon of virtue, but when you import thousands you are no longer dealing with isolated cases. 

A cursory glance at the Large of Law Numbers tells you that as soon as you start sampling a population, you have to consider the characteristics of the population itself. Pew Research has survey data on attitudes towards homosexuality, feminism (etc) in Muslim societies. Expecting that your group of 55,000 refugees will differ much in values from their former compatriots is naive at best.

There is already some evidence that Canada is covering up the activities of U.K. style Muslim rape gangs composed of Pakistanis and Somalis. Now we can add rapacious Syrians to the list of threats.
