The link

Note: These stats were just released, they are from 2016.

quote:

More than half (58%) of all federal arrests in
FY 2016 took place in the five judicial districts along
the U.S.-Mexico border, which was up from 45% in
FY 2006. Nearly 8 in 10 (77% or 115,881) federal
arrests in 2016 were for immigration, drug, or
supervision violations. Forty-five percent of federal
arrests in FY 2016 involved an immigration offense
as the most serious arrest offense, followed by drug
offenses and supervision violations (16% each).


Takeaways:
--The five districts along the US-Mexico border account for just over half of all federal arrests.

--Almost half of the federal arrests in FY 2016 were for immigration offenses.

quote:

In FY 2016, 41% of defendants charged in all
U.S. district courts were not U.S. citizens: 30% were
Mexican citizens, 5% were from Central America, and
6% were citizens of other foreign nations. Five percent
of defendants charged in U.S. district courts in FY 2016
were legal aliens and 36% were illegal aliens. More than
9 in 10 defendants charged with immigration (98%),
Bureau of Justice Statistics
Federal Justice Statistics, 2015-2016
weapons (94%), drug (92%), property (92%), and
violent (91%) offenses were convicted. Of the
69,487 defendants convicted in U.S. district court in
2016, 78% were sentenced to prison.


Takeaways:
--Over 1/3 of defendants charged in ALL US District courts were illegal immigrants.

--Only 5% of non-US citizen defendants on all US District courts were legal aliens.

--The largest group of illegal immigrants being charged in US District courts are from Mexico (30%).


TL;DR - We have a problem with illegal immigration at our Southern border and the numbers prove this, despite any Leftist narrative to the contrary.

“AI is going to displace all of these uneducated, blue collar jobs. We need universal basic income.”

“There is nothing wrong with importing millions of illiterate, uneducated migrants.”

The same alphabet organizations who destabilized every central and South American country now tell us to fear the Russians instead of these poor fat people streaming across the border. And as the media tells me those guys never lie

These are the kind of objective facts that define a case. We need more of this and less opinion crap. Here, we see a clear epidemic problem

Now there are two conclusions that can be drawn from this:
1) Illegal immigrants commit crimes at the same rate as US citizens. They are average people like US citizens, according to liberals. Therefore bc they commit crimes at the same rate, then the 36% of crimes being committed by illegal aliens means the population of the area being studied is 36% illegals. Which is incredible and clearly shows an epidemic, that our border is being infiltrated constantly

Or

2) illegal aliens commit criminal actions at a higher rate. In this case, we may not have a border security issue. But clearly the illegal aliens are not the same as US citizens in this scenario, and therefore we should not be giving them citizenship or allowing them to come here or stay here

In both scenarios, the people in favor of allowing the illegals in lose the argument

Not about facts, not about the illegals, not about the kids, not about the government workers. Is all about obstruction from Dems and illegal votes period.

Unbelievable that you guys accuse the left of pushing narratives, and then you spin this shite to push your own.


OF COURSE most FEDERAL arrests are along the border! That's where the FEDS patrol. They aren't working the streets in Kansas.

Did you miss the part you quoted where it says that, by far, the most common reason for the arrests was immigration offenses, NOT violent crime.



I know, I know, even one crime committed by an illegal is too many, but frick man don't twist the facts.



Edit: Nevermind on that one part, looks like copying from the report is messed up.
