On the contrary I commend the admins for keeping this thread alive.
This thread has nothing to do with racism and everything to do with stats.
If this thread had read: 'Cypriots make up 12% of Londons population but account for 50% of the crime' I would've welcomed every explanation, input, idea's etc as to the REASONS why because it would be CAUSE FOR CONCERN.

Hardened criminals do not need anybody's permission to arm. In addition to the usual sources, firearms are very easy to make. Rape, robbery and assaut are not petty crimes, all three show reductions in areas where CCW permist are issued in the USA. A dramatic contrast between the US and the UK is in the rate of burglaries in occupied houses, it is somewhere near 13 to 1, attributed mostly the possession of arms by the law abiding in America. We often like to poke fun at them, but crime rates are down in the USA.

As to the reaction of bystanders, it is a well observed fact that in places like Turkey the shout of "thief" wil bring instant reaction by the bystanders because the general moral attitude justifies reaction. In the UK the public dare not react, they are afraidd they might find themselves sued by the thief or prosecuted by the police. When that happens the country is down the tubes, it has sold its ass to the criminals.

1. Of course they don't Nikitas but if disect the crime figures then I would say they were in the lesser %'s so why react so strongly against the greater.

2. Have we got any figures for how insurance companies have made a contribution to those figures by demanding higher and higher speck of burglar alarms on premises and making sure the owner is responsible for his own protection?

Burglar Alarms and Crime Reduction

Burglar alarms work. Anti-crime schemes across the UK prove that burglar alarms are an effective deterrent to criminals. Community projects such as the Safe and Secure Homes Scheme saw burglar alarms fitted to the homes of elderly and disabled people on local estates, which resulted in a cut in burglaries by almost 80% according to the BBC.

If there was a Forum on which Burglar Alarm-ists and Gun Lobby-ists could argue.........I don't think it would take too long before it ended up looking like the CyprusForum

A SPATE of burglaries kept police busy over the holiday weekend with ten burglaries reported on Sunday alone.
From the ten, eight involved the burgling of flats and two shops. In the meantime, police are also investigating a number of burglaries committed in Nicosia between August 7 and 15.
According to a police report, jewelry and other valuable items were stolen from a number of flats. In one case, €400 was reported missing while in other cases, burglaries were reported without anything being stolen.
Also during the first two weeks of August, one shop owner in Nicosia reported that someone broke into his shop and stole a large number of mobile phones.
Police remind members of the public once again to take additional precautionary measures for the safety of their property during the summer season.
Those who see anything suspicious are asked to call their nearest police station or the citizen’s hotline on 1460.

What is the black population in the "RoC"? Enough to blame for these figures

[SKI-preo]

Black people are not responsible for these crimes:

I have read through all this thread and I must say that I am disgusted. Riddle me me this you racist
how many of these crimes were committed by black people of a middle class backgrounds?

I suggest you look in to the theory of family narrative to see the very real relationship between how the treatment of your father and forefathers affects the aspirations of the children, this is across race.

This thread is obscene and should be removed.

Oh, I don't know, it allows the Racists to demonstrate their stupidity!

Says stupid.
