I was coming here to post this. People who look simply at the raw numbers of homicides are as dimwitted as can be.

The question is as a percentage of population (or per capita).

I don't have time to find the numbers and do the math, but based on the number of murders committed by illegals as reported in this thread I'm willing to guess as a percentage it is well over the normal U.S. population percentage.

This is the corner the left keeps painting themselves into.

Either the the number of illegals is small (which drives up the "per capita), or the "per capita" is small (which requires a higher number of illegals).

Heads, we win. Tails, you lose.

They commit more murders than natives.

Why the frick should we let in people no better than our own citizens when so many more want to come?

Illegals should be elite

Dumbshit leftists do not understand supply and demand

There is a difference between an Illegal Immigrant and an Immigrant.

They have been telling us since the late 90’s that we only have 11 million Illegal Immigrants in this country. There is no way that is still the case in 2018. Some sources say the number is between 25 to 35 million.

Illegal Immigrants absolutely disproportionately commit crimes compared to the rest of America. In fact if broken down by percentage basis they trail only black males as far as violent crimes and murders committed.

It is like we can’t see through these agenda driven puff pieces that don’t tell the whole story.

This comment alone from one of your sources is laughable..

quote:

Felbab-Brown explains that many of the jobs occupied by undocumented workers in the United States are physically demanding jobs that Americans do not want,


This is propaganda tripe that cannot be proven. If illegals suppress the wages then you have to pay more to draw US labor. I though Dems wanted a living wage?

Also...

quote:

The number of unauthorized immigrants peaked in 2000


So we have accurate stats on these poor souls in the shadows? Gotcha.

quote:

Illegal Immigrant Conviction and Arrest Rates for Homicide, Sexual Assault, Larceny, and Other Crimes


So for this one illegal immigrants are slightly behind native born Americans in crimes and sexual assault. You have us here if you accept we know the proper number of illegals and the crimes are being accurately documented (big if Btw).

BUT...if they were not allowed to be in the country those stats would be ZERO. That’s better.

Those aren't "per year" immigration numbers as you stupidly claimed.

What is your contention? That we have close to 100 million illegals in the country?

YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS HERE? It's that you're right, and I am wrong.

This is for me:

Sure it’s not. Illegal immigration is though.

I don’t care is natural citizens commit more crimes, they are in this country legally and will be dealt with. We have enough crime, we don’t need people coming in illegally and committing murders.

No one should have to bury their child because they were killed by someone who shouldn’t even be here.

You should read the articles/data you're provided before making an incorrect point.

Per capita, crime rates among illegal immigrants are lower than those of native-born.

So much for your narrative...

This is wrong, unless by natives you mean Native Americans, not native-born Americans. Which may still be wrong, not sure what the numbers are for that demographic.
