I’m #2 and I’m still waiting to hear who the victim is when someone illegally crosses the border. And why Trump didn’t actually commit crimes

Literally everyone else already in this country legally. That’s housing and jobs that could be going to American citizens. Not to mention what’s happened to people like Laken Riley. There’s a reason we shouldn’t just let everyone in without assessing them first

Assuming that people from other countries are inherently more dangerous than our own nut job mass murderer citizens

I’m not saying that, but people like Laken Riley would still be alive if we had better immigration policies. Same reason you have to go through TSA at the airport, they’re not assuming everyone there is a terrorist, they’re just making sure. That’s how we make sure there aren’t any nut job mass murderers in the country

And let’s be honest, if you think people from most of the countries people are immigrating here from are less violent than American citizens, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you

They objectively are. Illegal inmigrante commit far less crime than legal citizens, and that includes proportional statistics. Here are recent rates from Texas, one of the states with the largest population of undocumented immigrants.

But there are a multitude of nut job mass murderers who were born on this very soil and were doing nothing about that whatsoever

Almost as if illegal immigrants are a fraction of the population. That’s still a massive share of crime for such a small group

Do you not know what “proportional” means lol

Not that we have a particularly high share of them, especially compared to other countries, but it’s almost as if being a nut job mass murderer is illegal. The difference between citizens and immigrants is that citizens are already born here so we kinda just have to wait and see if they’ll end up being criminals or not whereas with immigrants we can check and see if they already have a record. Which we often don’t do

If you don’t like that one, here’s a study from the NIJ.

From what I can tell, this is drawing from the same source data, so perhaps this will break it down better.

Housing isn’t free and the supply isn’t fixed. This is like saying other customers are victims when someone shoplifts lmfao

It’s interesting how Laken Riley is the only example people cite when native-born citizens kill young girls on a daily basis. Why aren’t we doing something about that?

"per 100,000 persons" means it's proportional. It's per capita. For every 100,000 US-born citizens, on average, 213 commit violent crimes. Have you ever taken a stat class?
