You don't have to be anti-Hispanic to know that an influx of illegal immigrants to a neighborhood do not make it a safer place to live.

Allard has nothing to apologize for.

As someone who lived in Denver for almost 3 years, let me tell you that the heavily Hispanic areas of town are the least safe.

And I don't recall any WASPs busting a cap into the head of an off-duty cop while attending a baptism at Trinity United Methodist Church.

"Illegal" does not equal "criminal." Unauthorized "entry" is illegal, not being here. And almost 50% of illegals initially entered legally as tourists, students, on busines, etc...

Well, D-U-H !!!

Are you denying the accuracy of my facts? I've posted links before. Try Google first and then if you can't find anything ask me for help.

"heavily Hispanic areas of town are the least safe"

Do they just happen to be the more impoverished areas? There's nothing unique to Hispanics that changes the relationship between poverty and crime.

But remember that Hispanic workers contribute to the overall prosperity of your city.

"Are you denying the accuracy of my facts?"

NO!, just asking you to back up your claims, that's how it works in a legitimate debate. If I had made statistical claims such as yours, I would feel obligated to back them up with a supporting study along with a link to the study and the group who conducted it.

Footnotes and Links are your friend :-)

Selective enforcement of the law decreases respect for the law.

Good for Allard! More and more GOP leaders are speaking out against illegal aliens.

This is not high school debate. I've provided links before. If you wish to challenge or disbelieve anything I've written feel free to do so but I'm not your research assistant. .

"See stats for incarceration."

I did. The total percent of California prison population that is Hispanic (Mexican) is 36.4%, whereas the percent of the California population that is Hispanic is 40%.

Furthermore, the California prison population is declining as the illegal immigrant population is increasing.

"At the beginning of June, we had 468 fewer inmates than the same time the year before. The last time CDC experienced an absolute decline in the population compared to the prior 12 months was in 1977," Terhune said.

"As recently as July 1997, the prison population growth was 11,878 inmates a year. However, the population growth has been steadily dropping over the past three years, as documented in the Department’s Spring 2000 Population Projections Report (.pdf). "link "

Don't believe the immigration myths, they usually start on websites that you wouldn't even be allowed to mention on FR. But now that you know the truth I'm just sure you will change your opinion about illegal immigrants? Right?

27% of the prisoners in the fed pen are illegal aliens per the DHS. BTW if hispanic immigrants are the answer to a pro second amendment government what went wrong in CA? And one more thing from now on I think there should be no more attacks on you, instead you will have to answer the hard questions as liberals everywhere will have to in the new era of Freedom.

I've tried to find the source of that stat and haven't been able to. If you happen to come across it please ping me.

I keep running into dead ends because the feds don't keep stats on illegals "entering" the system. And that's the key, not how many immigrants lose their legal status after incarceration or aren't eligible for parole or have federal holds on them etc...

What's the Dem Chairwoman going to do next, register all the illegals? And perhaps pay them to vote for Democrats?

Why does Allard even play the Democrats game? He might tell her Royal Highness, "That's what I said, live with it."
