If we average your number, that is 107,000 "Immigrant" crimes per year. Basically 11% of crime rates.

There are 3.2 million foreign-born Texans in a total population of 27 million (2016 est.) That's about 11.8%.

Your average number of immigrant crimes per year is basically the same as the ratio of foreign-born Texans.

Tell us how disproportionate and horrible the immigration crimes are again?

Lets be fair, isn't their actual existence a constant crime?

Fixed your post for accuracy. And as the moderator has posted earlier lets stay on topic. We can all agree that crime is bad. The topic is the new administration and its policy on illegal immigration. My post was regarding the DHS new policy for illegal immigration crime.

You do realize that this number is taken completely out of context and pushing that line is disingenuous at best. Take this next to the list of all crimes from the FBI's list. https://nibrs.fbi.gov/

Immigrant crimes were 200/week nation wide. New Castle Police dept in Delaware has over 300/week (over 15,000/year) Total population is ~550k, when there are approx 12 million illegal immigrants in our country.

If anything, illegal immigrants make the country safer overall, they commit far less crimes than citizens do, both in raw numbers and per-capita.

I was on topic, my friend.

Your numbers are a direct match to the ration of foreign-born Texans, using exactly what you provided.

If you're taking about "illegals" among the foreign-born population in Texas, then that percentage likely gets much smaller of overall crime rates.

So basically Texas has a number much less than 10% ratio of crimes committed by "illegal immigrants" but the other 90+% is nothing to holler about.

Ok.

Here are the real facts on Texas crime. This includes ALL crimes reported in the State of Texas. These statistics are the information shared with the Feds.
http://www.dps.texas.gov/crimereports/15/citCh9.pdf
http://www.dps.texas.gov/crimereports/14/citCh9.pdf
http://www.dps.texas.gov/crimereports/13/citCh9.pdf
http://www.dps.texas.gov/crimereports/12/citCh9.pdf
http://www.dps.texas.gov/crimereports/11/citCh9.pdf
http://www.dps.texas.gov/crimereports/10/citCh9.pdf
Total arrests in last six years: 5,906,233
Total arrests of Latinos in the last six years: 2,149,782
That is 36.39% of all arrests. Interestingly enough, the population demographics of the state of Texas is 37% Latino, so the numbers reflect less than the expected rate of crime by population, considering the economic disadvantage of Latinos.

Oh, and just to really crap all over Hannity and his FAKE NEWS, here’s the actual report with the actual numbers.
https://www.dps.texas.gov/administra...Conviction.pdf
https://www.dps.texas.gov/administra...Statistics.htm

In case anyone is really interested in the illegal immigration issues in Texas and the United States, here is some good reading on the subject.

Ok.
So your argument is that if policy could lower the crime rate of the state by up to 10% you wouldn't do it because it still leaves 90%? This rationalization of illegal immigration hurts my brain.

I wonder what the parents of this poor 15 year old girl that was murdered think about illegal immigration? Maybe a few posters need to step back and realize what is happening down here and maybe for a second put yourself in the parents shoes.

You could lower it by 90% by deporting everyone else, if that's where you're coming from. Heck, you could lower it by 100% and just get rid of everyone. Only then will you be safe.
