Seems that they both have a good point there. O'Reilly is right that is disgusting that Illegal aliens are able to come to the US and commit crimes. I disagree with Geraldo when he cliams that they commit crimes at a lower rate than legit americans (Don't disagree withthe stement I disagree with the point.) It doesn't matter that they commit crimes at a lower rate it matters that they commit crimes at all. First off they committed a crime when they illegally entered the country but more importantly they shouldn't be there at all so any crime they commit is that much worse.
Yes, O-Reilly is trivializing the actual crime but he is raising a good issue about these illegal aliens coming to America and comitting crimes and the real problem that it is.
Edit realised I worded that phrase wrong.
