I heard it somewhere quite a long time ago and checked it but there are many examples on the internet. Of course this link is kinda balanced but don't tell me that your anti-immigrant pages aren't biased.

By definition they're criminals anyway so it's irrelevant if they commit other crimes less frequently.

Carl is a little sensationalist in his delivery but his central point is correct.

By definition it doesn't make it right to consider them criminals anymore than it does to consider drug users or frequent traffic violators criminals. There should be two categories one criminals, one law violators in my opinion.
Anyways what is your problem with illegal immigrants? They come here for a better life for their family, benefited the economy(if they became citizens there wouldn't be the gigantic wage problems we face now), and believe in the American dream

Two points, which I will try to make use simple words, as you seem to have problems understanding.

First, I have NO problem with legal immigration, and have had posts where I have recommended a slight increase in the number of legal immigrants admitted to the United States.  So, drop the lies about me opposing immigration.

Second, the study you cited was for immigrants, NOT illegal aliens.  While legal immigrants do tend to have a lower crime rate than illegal aliens, I have yet to see any credible study that says that ILLEGAL aliens have a low crime rate.

Well first of all if you admit the legal immigration system of the United States is messed up, is biased to Europeans, and middle class, and that illegal immigrants aren't bad people at all but have made mistakes then I will take that back.
Second of all, you could still extrapolate that study and apply it to illegal immigrants and I bet they would only have slightly higher criminiality rates than citizens.

This brings to mind the Bill O'Reilly vs. Geraldo Rivera debate a few years back...

For once I'm a huge Geraldo fan.

haha that is what I thought when I saw that.

Reminder: Population growth hurts the environment so logically liberals/greens should oppose immigration.

lol I care more about humans than the environment by a long shot so try again.
