At the end of the day, the overwhelming majority of Immigrants are here to work and contribute to our economy, not f*ck around commit crimes. There’s plenty of opportunity for crime in the countries they come from, which is why they leave in the first place.
Every incident is tragic but I’m pretty sure there is no evidence that illegals (or immigrants for that matter) commit more crimes than US born citizens.
If anything they commit less crime as they are here to work and build a better life. That would mean immigration is actually making our country safer per capita contrary to Trump’s rhetoric.
But don’t get me wrong I am not calling for an open border as there are other considerations such as infrastructure and social services to ensure there is enough housing and jobs. All I am saying is that the notion that immigrants are making our country less safe is incorrect.
