49,000 illegal aliens in federal prisons. 49,000 illegals that commited serious crimes in our country after crossing the border. This is data that cannot be debated as these are facts as reported by the GAO.

I'd like to debate it (sort of) because I think the number of incarcerated illegals is higher than that. Did the GAO only count the illegals in federal prisons? If so, we'd still need to add in the number of illegals in city/county jails and those in state prisons.

If you get a chance, there are some crime stats and links on this old thread.

Yup, that is federal prisons only.

I read a post the other day that claimed roughly 75,000 in federal prisons. Half of all prisoners in California prisons are illegals.

The flood is going to swamp us. In 10 to 20 years we will have about 100 million. They have families and babies at a higher rate than Whites or Blacks.

I heard Durbin mention in the Senate that 1/2 of all illegals overstayed their visas.

I'm firmly convinced that the correct number is probably around 30 million currently. No one knows for sure, but they like to use this figure of 12 million, as if it isn't a big deal.

I have never seen any figures for how many have overstayed their visas. Is this information being withheld for a reason?
