Since you've avoided or won't answer the question I posed regarding the percentage of illegals aliens in American jails, bray, here's an indication:

AIM Report: Soros, Cash and Kerry
March 19, 2004

Currently there are roughly two- million inmates incarcerated in the United States. According to reliable sources, 30 percent of federal prison inmates are illegal aliens. According to those same sources, 60 percent of that 30 percent are illegal Mexican aliens. According to an investigative reporter with the Washington Times, at any given moment there are 80,000 illegal aliens loose on the streets of America who have been convicted of murder, rape, robbery and child molestations and other serious crimes.

Feds pay $5.8 billion to jail criminal aliens

Government study over past 3 years reveals burden borne by taxpayers
Posted: May 10, 2005

© 2005 WorldNetDaily.com

The U.S. federal government spent $5.8 billion over the past three years to incarcerate criminal aliens – nonresidents who are in the country illegally or legally and convicted of a crime [in other words, additional crime(s) other than being illegally within the U.S.].

The report by the General Accounting Office – the investigative arm of Congress – shows the number of criminal aliens in federal prisons increased from about 42,000 at the end of 2001 to about 49,000 at the end of last year. [snip]

Illegal Alien Crime Wave in Full Swing
By Jim Kouri, CPP
August 4, 2005

In the population study of 55,322 illegal aliens, researchers found that they were arrested at least a total of 459,614 times, averaging about 8 arrests per illegal alien. Nearly all had more than 1 arrest. Thirty-eight percent (about 21,000) had between 2 and 5 arrests, 32 percent (about 18,000) had between 6 and 10 arrests, and 26 percent (about 15,000) had 11 or more arrests. Most of the arrests occurred after 1990.

They were arrested for a total of about 700,000 criminal offenses, averaging about 13 offenses per illegal alien. One arrest incident may include multiple offenses, a fact that explains why there are nearly one and half times more offenses than arrests. Almost all of these illegal aliens were arrested for more than 1 offense. Slightly more than half of the 55,322 illegal aliens had between 2 and 10 offenses.

Immigration and the Alien Gang Epidemic: Problems and Solutions
Testimony, April 13, 2005

Testimony of Heather Mac Donald, Senior Fellow, Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Border Security, and Claims

Law enforcement officials estimate that 20% of gang members in San Diego County are illegal, according to the Union-Tribune. The L.A. County Sheriff reported in 2000 that 23% of inmates in county jails were deportable, according to the New York Times.

In Los Angeles, 95 percent of all outstanding warrants for homicide in the first half of 2004 (which totaled 1,200 to 1,500) targeted illegal aliens. Up to two-thirds of all fugitive felony warrants (17,000) were for illegal aliens.

County Takes On Illegal Immigrants

Leading the charge against the illegal immigrant influx is Canyon County Commissioner Robert Vasquez.

"It is an economic attack on the United States," Vasquez, who is of Mexican heritage, explains.

But as Vasquez likes to point out, his grandfather came to the United States legally. Vasquez says illegal workers cost the county millions and, in a legal first, he's turning to the courts to get the money back.

The local jail is overcrowded with a large number of immigration cases.

John M. Morganelli Testifies on "Local Enforcement of Immigration Laws"
Capital Hill Hearing, October 1, 2003

Despite the voices of those who naively believe that the influx of this estimated 9 to 13 million illegal aliens into the United States is a positive thing, the fact of the matter is that illegal immigration is having an extremely negative impact upon America at many levels. Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent social security numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status. In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today's federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal aliens. The numerous crimes being committed by illegal aliens such as identity theft, fraud and use of false identification is causing havoc with record-keeping systems including but not limited to Social Security, income tax and other compilation of data that we have routinely relied upon for accuracy and identity verification. Just about every day, municipal and state police come in contact with illegal aliens who are utilizing fraudulent documents, false names and other people's identities. Identification of these individuals is impossible and, quite frankly, many of the illegal aliens committing crimes here in the United States have criminal records from their country of origin which cannot be ascertained because of their continuous use of false identities. Clearly, in addition to being a crime issue, the growing population of illegal aliens in the United States is without a doubt the single most important national security issue facing us.

Outstanding backup; however, I wouldn't want you to spend a lot of time waiting for a rational response from an irrational pro-illegal alien apologist...

Nobody said there is not a problem. So your research is very impressive for what purpose? You can dig up that Blacks represent 50-75% of the population, so how do you propose we solve that?

Fact is that you all or nothing solutionists are the reason nobody wants to address this issue. To make it easy for you, I am not a Conservative but a Liberal, big deal! Now, how do you propose we pick the apples w/o cheap labor? It is a skill that is not easily learned and what HS kid can get the time off or will do migrant work?

There is a way to do it but you guys won't even address it let alone solve it.

Pray for W and Our Troops
