I think @Noahpinion is basically arguing that because America is made up of whites (baseline crime rate) & blacks (5x white crime rate), adding illegal aliens (1.5x white crime rate) lowers the average RATE of crime by diluting the black population, even as it increases crime

...at least, this is the only explanation that squares @Noahpinion 's statement that "illegal aliens lower crime" with the FBI crime stats.
Noah, is this a fair understanding of your position vis-a-vis how illegals affect crime in Germany and in the US?

I agree with Noah here - the more you dilute African populations, the more the crime falls.
We could add 20 million Hispanics and lower it a small bit, or 10 million Swiss and lower it a LOT.

If @Noahpinion is serious about his "immigration is good because it lowers the crime rate", then I expect that he will agree with me that we should shape immigration to bring in people from lower-crime areas like Japan and Germany and reduce immigration from e.g. Africa
yes?

So do you then endorse an American immigration policy that prioritizes immigration from low-crime countries?

Also, I applaud your decision to not prescribe policy that affects groups other than your own (seriously).
With that in mind, would you be willing to endorse an US immig policy that only settled immigrants in zip codes that reflect your demographic?

...because right now what I hear you saying is "I don't have #skininthegame re European immigration policy, therefore I won't speak to it...but I'm happy to say that poor / middle class US neighborhoods should get more immigrants even as I'm protected by my wealthy SF bubble"

If this were true, we'd expect to see 2nd and 3rd generation immigrants embracing American attitudes re low taxes and small government.
In fact, though, as @AlexNowrasteh has demonstrated at great length in his @CatoInstitute whitepaper, they do not

Here is some of the data that @AlexNowrasteh compiled showing that immigrants do NOT adopt American values, but prefer socialist tax-and-spend programs
