I submit to you that more casualties are committed in the U.S. by illegal Mexicans than by people from any other country

Apples and oranges. More people die in car accidents in the US in three months, too. That doesn't mean automobile travel is a greater danger to us as a people.

The reason Islam is a greater danger is that Islam seeks to control your life and to punish or kill you for your conscience and beliefs. Illegal immigrants only want to make quick buck. In this context, illegal immigration from south of the border is a large and costly benign tumor, but Islamic extremism is rapidly metastaticizing malignancy.

I just now read the answer to my question in the table:

The 78 incidents listed below should not be taken as a complete list, merely a representative one. The listed attacks resulted in at least 7478 deaths (rate of over two attacks/death toll over 210 annually).

Is it? Foreign citizens. Entering the country undetected. Murdering, robbing, raping at percentages higher than average, turning inner cities into warzones, forming terrorist gangs (over 200 in Los Angeles alons), and driving down wages for middle-class American citizens, driving uninsured and unlicensed.

More dangerous to the country I tell you.

NOW, you're talking apples and oranges. The same can be said for fast food which is even more dangerous than cars. And tobacco. Voluntary behavior and the fact that people can't drive worth crap is indeed a safety problem, but if you're talking about which foregin nationals we should fear violance from the most ... I submit to you that it is the Mexicans. Some 300 gang muders in LA county alone yearly. Sure, the muslims get all the publicity with the targeted "big strikes", but year over year, day in and day out, they are no match for our terrorist to the south.

Yeah, La Raza pretty much wants to do that too.

Benign???

Next time you are in LA, let me take you on a tour my friend.

but Islamic extremism is rapidly metastaticizing malignancy.

I don't dispute that, but I think we are concentrating more on the lessor threat than the greator threat. Islamic extremists aren't forming dangerous gangs, procreating at incredible levels, making public education and healtchare unviable, putting bullet holes through your window, and pushing down your wages. Rather, they tend to take themselves out along with their misdeeds.
