    OK, now let’s compare: over the last 12 months, how many American citizens murdered somebody? And how many illegals?

    And yet we seem to mostly hear about it when immigrants do it, rather than the constant stream of good old American my country tis of thee murders, God bless 'em.

    We should realize that leftists and liberals and conservatives are all victims of the propaganda machine.

      Illegal aliens committing crimes on US soil are preventable, if they wouldn’t have been let into the country and allowed to stay they wouldn’t commit the crimes. The spotlight for illegal alien crimes is similar to criminals getting their sentences commuted or released and then committing gruesome crimes.

      Further setting another person on fire is noteworthy regardless of the immigration status of the perpetrator.

      Eh. When it comes to New York a lot of the crime we hear about is from citizens. The guy Daniel Penny had to subdue for example was a citizen.

      For all the types of violent crimes you’ll hear about illegals committing, they don’t usually happen in the New York subway. I’m still surprised this was an illegal rather than a citizen.

        Yeah, New York isn’t close to the border and they don’t have a lot of illegal immigrants.
