In actuality putupon is the race baiter. He tries to smear all immigrants as violent criminals. Kinda of like what the liberals do to whites, who explain away crimes by balcks and hispanics, because it is the mean old white man's fault. Same coin different sides.
To me a violent criminal is a violent criminal is a vilolent criminal, no matter their race, color, or creed.
I don't know the stats (but if rember correctly, I did hear that 30% California's prison pop. were illegals), that is irrelevant. Numbers are what count; 1+1=2 everywhere in the world.
What I do know is if they all obeyed our laws and only came in legally, the wouldn't be criminals the minute the came across the border.
That applies to anybody of any race or ethnic group around the world.
It's not our fault that Mexico is a third world nation.
It is our fault that we don't care who comes across or not, and many who do have murdered, raped, and pillaged.
Besides that, it's flat out criminal that even if we weren't worried about crime or terrorism, the President wants to use the Power of Government to shake us down for a minimum of 345 billion with a B dollars over the next 20 years, and I would bitch about that, even if were for Swedish blonde hotties.
