ILLEGAL ALIENS AND CRIME: STATISTICS NOT ON OBAMA’S SIDE

President Barack Obama’s opponents — especially those working for the Border Patrol and in law enforcement — claim the recent change in immigration policy is meant to seal his Latino voting base, especially those who are suspected of being legal or illegal aliens who are fraudulently voting in U.S. elections.

Obama’s opponents — especially those working for the Border Patrol and in law enforcement — claim the whole change in immigration policy is meant to seal his Latino voting base, especially those who are suspected of being legal or illegal aliens who are fraudulently voting in U.S. elections.

“This… [is] more of the ‘wait until they kill, rape, beat or molest someone here in America, then we’ll deport them’ logic. Any victims want to step up to the plate so they can make sure an illegal alien becomes a “felon”, making him deportable under the Obama and Napolitano rules? Brilliant strategy. They say they’ll deport “gang members” as well. We all feel so much safer now. The illegal alien cheerleaders (Raul Grijalva, Luis Gutierrez, etc.) will love this new strategy. Those of us who actually have to put our lives on the line and enforce the laws? Not so much,” according to a statement by National Border Patrol Council, Local 2544

Statistical studies regarding illegal aliens and criminal activity are few and far between. But in a 2007 Government Accountability Office study of a sample population of 55,322 illegal aliens, analysts discovered that:

* They were arrested at least a total of 459,614 times, averaging about 8 arrests per illegal alien. Nearly all had more than one arrest. Thirty-eight percent (about 21,000) had between 2 and 5 arrests, 32 percent (about 18,000) had between 6 and 10 arrests, and 26 percent (about 15,000) had 11 or more arrests. Most of the arrests occurred after 1990.

* They were arrested for a total of about 700,000 criminal offenses, averaging about 13 offenses per illegal alien. One arrest incident may include multiple offenses, a fact that explains why there are nearly one and half times more offenses than arrests.

* Almost all of these illegal aliens were arrested for more than 1 offense. Slightly more than half of the 55,322 illegal aliens had between 2 and 10 offenses. About 45 percent of all offenses were drug or immigration offenses. About 15 percent were property-related offenses such as burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and property damage. About 12 percent were for violent offenses such as murder, robbery, assault, and sex-related crimes. The balance was for such other offenses as traffic violations, including driving under the influence; fraud–including forgery and counterfeiting; weapons violations; and obstruction of justice.

* Eighty percent of all arrests occurred in three states–California, Texas, and Arizona. Specifically, about 58 percent of all arrests occurred in California, 14 percent in Texas, and 8 percent in Arizona.

Meanwhile, Barbara Coe, an Internet political activist and blogger, on Saturday reported on an FBI crime study that also shows heavy illegal alien involvement in criminal activity:

* 83% of warrants for murder in Phoenix are for illegal aliens.

* 86% of warrants for murder in Albuquerque are for illegal aliens.

* 75% of those on the most wanted list in Los Angeles , Phoenix and Albuquerque are illegal aliens.

* 24.9% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals.

* 40.1% of all inmates in Arizona detention centers are Mexican nationals.

* 48.2% of all inmates in New Mexico detention centers are Mexican nationals.

* 29% (630,000) convicted illegal alien felons fill our state and Federal prisons at a cost of $1.6 billion annually.

* 53% plus of all investigated burglaries reported in California, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona and Texas are perpetrated by illegal aliens.

* 50% plus of all gang members in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.

* 71% plus of all apprehended cars stolen in 2005 in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada and California were stolen by Illegal aliens or “transport coyotes.”

* 47% of cited/stopped drivers in California have no license, no insurance and no registration for the vehicle. Of that 47%, 92% are illegal aliens.

* 63% of cited/stopped drivers in Arizona have no license, no insurance and no registration for the vehicle. Of that 63%, 97% are illegal aliens.

* 66% of cited/stopped drivers in New Mexico have no license, no insurance and no registration for the vehicle. Of that 66% 98% are illegal aliens.

* 380,000 plus “anchor babies” were born in the US to illegal alien parents in just one year, making 380,000 babies automatically US citizens.

  1. Deliver us from Evil says:

    I actually saw an attorney on tv yesterday arguing that calling someone an Illegal Alien is prejudicial when that person is accused of a crime – even though that person is in our this country illegally he/she should be called ‘illegal’ it’s biased.

  2. Bill says:

    We don’t have a president. We have a dictator. Its a sad day indeed for the citizens of our nation. NoBamma in 2012!

  3. Anonymous says:

    Just to say it, laughing, if they are here illegally then they are criminals by word and deed. Every single one of them.

    So I guess illegals do cause a rise in crime.

  4. Got to go! says:

    This guy is totally out of control. He has no regard for the way our government is supposed to work. Whether it be going to war in Libya bypassing Congress, backdoor amnesty bypassing Congress, issuing executive orders and appointing czars, he obviously think he’s the king of the United States instead of the highest elected official. Of course, I suspect he’ll be losing that title soon. I say put in an express lane and throw him out!

  5. Estoban says:

    Our last few presidents have ignored the crimes of illegal alien bottom feeders. As a result, more have been encouraged to steal across our border, ignore our laws and diss our people, culture and language. This has been a real boon for a group of greedy, criminal employers and for the illegals; but it has caused massive harm and real damage to the rest of Americans and particularly to working class Americans.
