I do in fact.

Germany: https://www.bka.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/Publikationen/Pol...

Total N = ~2.2M Germans = ~1.2M (~58%) Non-Germans = ~900k (~42%)

Population: Germans ~71M (~85%), foreign ~12M (~15%)

Per-capita, non-Germans show up ~2.8x more.

Approximate rates:

Germans: ~1,786 per 100k (baseline) All Non-Germans: ~7,365 per 100k (~4.1× German rate) Syria: ~12,900 per 100k (~7.2×) Afghanistan: ~12,300 per 100k (~6.9×) Romania: ~8,450 per 100k (~4.7×) Turkey: ~6,660 per 100k (~3.7×) Poland: ~6,640 per 100k (~3.7×) Ukraine: ~5,130 per 100k (~2.9×)

Some other countries (Switzerland, Denmark) also publish per-nationality data and it doesn't look any better. The other comment shows data from Norway/Finland/Sweden which is more of the same.

The US is a different topic (but strong arguments with clear data can be made as well), so I'll refrain from engaging it here to avoid further derailing the thread.
