This is a valid point - the fact that a few incidents happened does not mean that there is an emergency.
There is a LOT of research that shows that immigrants - both legal and illegal - are less likely to commit crimes than are native-born Americans. That is a verifiable fact, despite the efforts of certain individuals here to deny it. Google the documentation, which comes from the US government and not left-wing websites.
It doesn't make any sense to address a situation that occurs rarely among immigrants while ignoring a similar situation that occurs more frequently among native citizens. Crime is crime - it should be dealt with as it happens without targeting a specific class or race of people as if they're the major cause of it. |
