Non-Citizens Committed A Disproportionate Share Of Federal Crimes, 2011-16
Center For Immigration Studies ^ | 10 January 2018 | Steven A. Camarota

21% of those convicted of non-immigration crimes were non-citizens — 2.5 times their share of the population

From The Link:

"Because it is easier to make an immigration case, federal prosecutors sometimes charge illegal immigrants only with immigration violations, even when they have committed serious non-immigration crimes....But because of this, conviction data for non-immigration crimes will tend to understate the level of criminal activity among non-citizens."

Gee why would I believe people with no vetting who walk in here totally anonymous, would include a lot of crooks? I mean of course only moral people take advantage of such a situation. /s

Huh.

Then add to this the fact that 3% of US citizens are committing 50% of violent crimes. (Guess the race)

This country needs a huge giant enema.

On the other hand, new immigrants to New Zealand have much lower crime rates, much higher incomes than native born New Zealanders.

Ever wonder why?

Because to be eligible for immigration to New Zealand, you must bring US$1.5 Million with you to invest, or have a skill in short supply in NZ with a job offer, AND must pass an English proficiency test run by NZ govt.

Why is NZ so much smarter than US?

Make them all citizens the second they sneak into the country. Then, the numbers of non-citizen crimes will drop!

That means people who break into our country and ignore ALL of our laws actually get arrested sometimes.

Amnesty in 1986 has resulted in 10 times the number of illegal aliens than we had then.

If we do not take the rule of law seriously, why should fraudulently documented foreigners?

Yep.

Through out history - all great civilizations imported their lower working classes. Much to their detriment.

Well see, if we had amnesty they’d be citizens, and this statistic would be smaller!

I get beyond irritated when i think back to when our ‘great’ president obama was on tv telling all of these people to vote in the 2016 election. What kind of pos does that?

No surprise since they are, as a group, committing a crime(s) by being in the U.S. illegally. Additionally, since they have begun their stay in the U.S., demonstrating obvious bad character, it is no surprise that they go on to commit a dispportionate amount of our crime.

Prosecute those who knowingly hire illegal aliens. No exceptions.

Deport on contact, yes. Not sure why any illegal alien identified as such is allowed to walk away. If they are identified as illegal, arrest and deport them.

Separately, I understand the government needs to priority its efforts to search for illegal aliens, going after criminals first, etc. But that is different task.

If anyone is identified or self-identifies as an illegal alien, they should be arrested and deported regardless of whether they are otherwise on a prioritized list.
