Immigrants, including illegals, are statistically less likely than citizens to commit crimes.

"Illegal immigrants cause crime"[edit]​

• Whilst a common cry of the anti-immigration brigade — "backed" by a font of endless anecdotal "evidence" — the facts don't support this. According to FBI statistics in Arizona in 2008, despite the increased presence of illegal immigrants, crime rates have actually dropped, while the population has increased.[28] Only 8% of the prison population are immigrants, which also includes legal immigrants as well.[29]
• Furthermore, El Paso, Tex., and San Diego, Calif., cities that border Mexico and have a significant population of undocumented immigrants, have the lowest crime rates in the U.S.[30]
• "...between 1990 and 2013, as the foreign-born share of the United States population nearly doubled and the number of unauthorized immigrants more than tripled, violent crime declined 48 percent and property crime fell 41 percent."[31]
• Illegal immigrants are less likely to commit crimes against US citizens than other US citizens are.[32][note 2]
• If you mean crime against illegal immigrants (which happens), that is "caused" by them only in the sense that it would be impossible if they didn't exist.

Don't confuse the poorly-educated with facts.

Illegal immigrants have a 100% rate of being criminals.

Different matter entirely.

Important to keep this in mind during Trump's first 100 days.

People with criminal records are statistically more likely to commit crimes. That is why they are being prioritized for deportation, along with those deemed a national security risk by DHS and those who are in violation of orders to leave.

You lost.

But then they won't be around to hurt US citizens and get showered with cash and prizes for it....Democrats BIG mad.

The communities the cockroaches fester in are terrified to report crime lest they be ICEd...

 

[AceDesSpades]

They are also generally (D)emocratICK strongholds.

Not to engage in false cause fallacy or anything, but there is a clear, established pattern...
