Every race, every nationality, every religion, every age has killers, rapists, and child molesters.

So you're actually suggesting we import them. Amazing.

We weren't Italy's garbage dump, but the mobsters came anyway...

We deported a bunch of them, too.

Thank God people like you did not qualify MY people based on the actions of the garbage Fidel dumped on our shores under Carter.

Your people benefited from the "Cuban One Foot Law".

You can try using that bull$hit line on the rubes, but it don't play with the rest.

Tell it to Officer Johnsons widow and kids pal.

Inasmuch as conventional theories of crime and incarceration predict higher rates for young adult males from ethnic minority groups with lower educational attainment — characteristics which describe a much greater proportion of the foreign-born population than of the native born — it follows that immigrants would be expected to have higher incarceration rates than natives. And immigrant Mexican men — who comprise fully a third of all immigrant men between 18 and 39, and who have the lowest levels of education — would be expected to have the highest rates.

Data from the 5 percent Public Use Microsample (PUMS) of the 2000 census were used to measure the institutionalization rates of immigrants and natives, focusing on males 18 to 39, most of whom are in correctional facilities. Of the 45.2 million males age 18 to 39, three percent were in federal or state prisons or local jails at the time of the 2000 census — a total of over 1.3 million, in line with official prison statistics at that time.

Surprisingly, at least from the vantage of conventional wisdom, the data show the above hypotheses to be unfounded. In fact, the incarceration rate of the US born (3.51 percent) was four times the rate of the foreign born (0.86 percent). The foreign-born rate was half the 1.71 percent rate for non-Hispanic white natives, and 13 times less than the 11.6 percent incarceration rate for native black men (see Table 1). Source.

Would the widow Johnson be happier if her husband had been killed by a native-born, tenth generation hoodlum, as it is the case with 99% of every LEO killed in the line of duty?

Or are we supposed to feel less for the other officers and more for Officer Johnson becase you dislike Mexican killers more than you dislike your own?

Playing for the emotional vote?

I would have thought that to be below you.

"We deported a bunch of them, too."

Please, Lucky Luciano worked for the Federal government...what about the widows of the cops killed by his mob?

Was he deported?

He should have been executed.
