Bullshit, statistic comparing illegals crime rate, not against Whites, but against White/Blacks.
It is ILLEGAL immigration that angers me.
ILLEGAL ILLEGAL ILLEGAL ILLEGAL ILLEGAL
They are committing crimes that are never solved. This is BS.
The point is not that immigrants commit more crimes. The main point is that 100% of crimes by illegal immigrants would not have been committed if they were not in the USA.
“the numbers show that immigrants commit fewer crimes than native-born Americans.”
What they are really saying is fwwer than native born black Americans. That is jut the statistical fact.
Trump never said they did...
He was talking about illegal aliens...
“Here’s how it works: imagine 1 out of every 20 people is a criminal. If you are a criminal, you have a 5% chance of bumping into another criminal who tells you about an opportunity to commit a crime or helps you carry it out. When an influx of low-crime immigrants enters the country, they reduce the chances of you making that connection, thus reducing overall crime.”
What absurdist sophistry. All that the Bangladeshi, etc. immigrants that he’s talking about are doing is pushing the black and (American and illegal) Hispanic street gangs into different parts of cities or into other cities all together. The idea that all these street gangs responsible for most of the murders and much of the rest of the crime in this country simply dissolve when Mr. Kim from Soeul shows up and opens his convenience store is nuts. Why doesn’t he tell us how great the brutal Salvadoran MS-17 is for crime in this country?
“It is no surprise that America’s crime rates plunged as immigration surged in the 1990s.”
What a joke. As if finally starting to really crack down on criminals and gangs weren’t the actual reason for that. These are the same tough measures that the left and libertarians are working to undo as we speak (and surprise, surprise, the murder rate has shot up this year). This writer is actually delusional. How was someone like this who lacks the common sense and reasoning abilities of an average 13 year old allowed to write for a think tank? He either is deliberately pushing manipulative propaganda or he is a self-delusional fool.
ILLEGAL immigrants. Their presence here is a crime, and every other crime they commit should not have happened in America.
They may not commit “more” crimes, but any crime they commit is too many.
The last thing we need is to allow more criminals into this country.

Has Trump ever said illegal immigrants commit MORE crime than native born people?
I’ve never heard him say that.
I’ve never heard him say legal or illegal immigrants commit MORE crime than native born people.
We should ask people for direct quotes when they say Trump has said this or that. He may have said it, but if he did, why would they not put his comment in direct “quote” form?
>Has Trump ever said illegal immigrants commit MORE crime than native born people?
They do commit more crimes than natives. However, they always conflate legal immigrants with illegals to muddy things up.
Trump never said "more".
ILLEGAL immigrants are criminals by definition.
Whether true or not, has Trump ever said that?
If he had said it, that illegal immigrants (or legal or both) commit MORE crimes than native born, why would not quote him directly saying that?
The question is, did he say it or are they bearing false witness?
If he did say it, he should defend it with facts if he can.
If he did not say it, he should sue them for slander.
We should stop running around defending accusations or statements that were never made in the first place.
True, they do that all the time.
And they also make up statements for Trump that he has never said. That is the first offense.
Tell that to the two dead people in Texas, who were murdered by a 6 time deported illegal alien cockroach
Bullshit. www.ncfire.info will give you all you need to know about immigration and crime, like CHILD RAPE.
