Trump Is Right About Mexican Illegals Committing Crimes
http://www.townhall.com ^ | 7/4/2015 | John Hawkins

"We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men." – George Orwell

Despite all the gnashing of teeth from the Left over Donald Trump’s comments about illegal aliens and liberals’ deliberate attempts to distort what he said, his controversial comments about Mexico are absolutely correct.

"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. …They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems to us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."

Despite attempts to take his comments out of context, Donald Trump was clearly talking about illegal immigration. So, if you want to say, “My grandfather came here legally from Mexico….” or “I know a legal Mexican immigrant who serves in the military,” it has nothing to do with what Trump said. Even when it comes to illegals, Trump noted that some of them are “good people.”

So what’s really upsetting people on the Left is Trump’s assertion that Mexican illegal aliens are committing a substantial amount of crime in America. That is inarguably true.

The truth of it is that their home countries would not be aiding and abetting them in their escape to here if they had any substantive value to their own particular cultures and societies. It is a way to export the useless refuse and criminals of their society. Deal with it liberals.

Does anyone think that the class of Mexicans and other suramericanos being encouraged by the USA and Mexico to come here illegally, are squaking about political correctness and other leftist nonsense back in their own countries?

Its ridiculous on its face to think they are raising hell with their white ruling class back home - hell no. They know their place.

Trump, for all his faults is absolutely correct and let me tell you this - illegal immigration has just been pushed to the front of the "issue" line by him. Walker, Rubio, Bush, et al - better get right and get your heads screwed on straight.

The cops in Mexico are all on the take.

The politicians are completely corrupt.

The drug cartels run everything.

Imagine how ‘undesirable’ you must be if the bottom feeding scum of the earth don’t want you.

And these are the people that liberals think who think their pittance of 7.65% on piss wages can support all the aging SS recipients? Not a damn one of them will ever get to the maximum limit where the deductions stop. It will take 10-15 of them to equal a productive worker’s salary and contributions in my opinion -if that. My guess is they’ll overwhelm our medical system.

Illegal immigration has always been my number one issue.

I am so glad to see it getting the attention we must have if anything is to Finally be done to protect our border.

Those candidates who are taking a pro amnesty position are Done.

When the wall is built it should contain the names of every American murdered by illegal immigrants as a reminder of why that wall was built.

IIRC, the great 1980 Jimmy Carter Mariel Boatlift of yore was an opportunity for Castro to empty his prisons and sanatoriums (i.e., crazy ass psychos) allowing them all to participate in the great Amnesty.

Just some more “acts of love” from “immigrants”.

What Jebster and the rest of the cheap labor importers don’t want Americans to know is that we, the citizens, are paying the true costs, human and financial, of the unending invasion of illegal aliens.

Illegal aliens ARE NOT immigrants.

Exactly. And to those libs, the wall would be for keeping illegals out not citizens in. Big difference between their yelping it would be another Berlin Wall.

A border wall would be a huge tourist attraction, especially if it memorialized the names of American victims of illegals. The border states should get on this.

And it’s interesting there’s not the same problem on our border with Canada. People along it have no problems with illegals coming across.

http://www.usillegalaliens.com/impacts_of_illegal_immigration_crime_summary.html

In recent Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House Subcommittee on immigration, Border, Security and Claims he stated:

“Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent social security numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status.
In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today’s federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal aliens.”

•In Los Angeles, 95% of some 1,500 outstanding warrants for homicides are for illegal aliens. About 67% of the 17,000 outstanding fugitive felony warrants are for illegal aliens.
•There are currently over 400,000 unaccounted for illegal alien criminals with outstanding deportation orders. At least one fourth of these are hard core criminals.
•80,000 to 100,000 illegal aliens who have been convicted of serious crimes are walking the streets. Based on studies they will commit an average of 13 serious crimes per perpetrator.
•Illegal aliens are involved in criminal activities at a rate that is 2-5 times their representative proportion of the population.
•In 1980, our Federal and state facilities held fewer than 9,000 criminal aliens but at the end of 2003, approximately 267,000 illegal aliens were incarcerated in U.S. correctional facilities at a cost of about $6.8 billion per year.
•At least 4.5 million pounds of cocaine with a street value of at least $72 billion is smuggled across the southern border every year. ..
•56% of illegal aliens charged with a reentry offense had previously been convicted on at least 5 prior occasions.
•Illegal aliens charged with unlawful reentry had the most extensive criminal histories. 90% had been previously arrested. Of those with a prior arrest, 50% had been arrested for violent or drug-related felonies.
•Illegal aliens commit between 700,000 to 1,289,000 or more crimes per year.
•Illegal aliens commit at least 2,158 murders each year – a number that represents three times greater participation than their proportion of the population.
•Illegal alien sexual predators commit an estimated 130,909 sexual crimes each year.
•There may be as many as 240,000 illegal alien sex offenders circulating throughout America. Based on studies, they will commit an average of 8 sex crimes per perpetrator before being caught.
•Nearly 63% of illegal alien sex offenders had been deported on another offense prior to committing the sex crime.
•Only 2% of the illegal alien sex offenders in one study had no history of criminal behavior, beyond crossing the border illegally.
•In Operation Predator, ICE arrested and deported 6,085 illegal alien pedophiles. Some studies suggest each pedophile molests average of 148 children. If so, that could be as many as 900,580 victims.
•Nobody knows how big the Sex Slave problem is but it is enormous.
•The very brutal MS-13 gang has over 15,000 members and associates in at least 115 different cliques in 33 states.
•The overall financial impact of illegal alien crimes is estimated at between $14.4 and $81 billion or more per year. Factor in the crime as a result of the cocaine and other drugs being smuggled in and the number may reach $150 billion per year.

Where does Rubio come off berating Trump for citing FACTS?

[[Congressman Steve King (R-IA) estimates that illegal alien drunk drivers kill 13 Americans every day — that’s a death toll of 4,745 per year.[4]

The 23 percent criminal traffic offenders figure is only part of the overall picture. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, another 23 percent, more than 43,000 illegal aliens, were convicted of drug offenses. The violent crime category of assault, robbery, sexual assault, and family offenses comes to 12 percent. The non-violent crime grouping of larceny, fraud, and burglary totaled seven percent, and on the list goes — equaling 100 percent of illegal aliens who have been through the criminal justice system and inflicted thousands to millions in cost per alien on the system, for issues having nothing to do with their illegal entry into the country]]

As far as the author of this report has determined after many hours of searching, there is no official calculation of all the direct and indirect costs of illegal aliens. As referenced in this report, there is a piece here and a piece there but NOBODY IS TRACKING IT.

In any case, when you add up all the direct and indirect costs it would not surprise me if the amount exceeded $100 billion, per year. If the data for the costs of crime is correct, and the traffic accidents participation turns out to be as great as some indicators point to, then the number could easily exceed $200 billion.

Funny how the US can’t find money to support our seniors, our disabled, and our veterans, but we can find all kinds of money to pay for the damage done by ILLEGALS, and even give them welfare- some to the tune of nearly $45,000 per year after all benefits are added up-

Trump- PLEASE keep hammering that illegals ARE destroying this country and taking money from OUR most vulnerable and needy citizens

Is Mexico really “sending” citizens into America? Or “aiding an abetting”? Why would the Mexican government do that?

They have ads on TV and publish brochures for them as well has having their consulates and missions provide IDs for them. Further, they allow the trans-country freedom trains to transit through the country unimpeded, while they are blatantly overloaded with illegals (from both countries) on the tops of the cars. How is any of that that not “aiding and abetting?”

They do it to get rid of their trash... plain and simple.
