- Border States Deal With More Illegal Immigrant Crime Than Most, Data Suggest
- Arizona lawmakers say their new immigration enforcement law will them fight an illegal immigrant crime wave that is sweeping the state, a claim that is backed by studies and statistics that suggest border states have a disproportionately high number of criminals who are illegal immigrants.
There will always be those that are an opposing force against any social movement and in this case it happens to be illegal immigration. Unfortunately, those that claim that this new immigration enforcement law is built off of racism are so far off from the truth it is ridiculous. There is a large portion of people opposing the new law that are not even from these heavily populated states that are dealing with illegal immigration. I believe there is a large portion of people that have no idea how bad illegal immigration has become because of the fact they do not see it or experience the problems that arise from it. I am not saying that every illegal immigrant has malicious intent when they come here but there are those that have criminal activity in mind and that are contributing to drug trafficking, kidnapping, and a variety of other illegal activity. Let’s not forget the fact that these people do not pay taxes, go to our hospitals and schools and yet somehow get a free ride in which the citizens of this country are paying for. I truly hope this law helps eliminate illegal immigration and the problems that come with it.
ReplyDeleteYou are right Mastermind when you say that there are people who oppose tough illegal immigration laws when they themselves are not even dealing with the issue in their home state. I bet many of these people have not seen hospitals shut down because of the costs of “anchor babies.” I also bet these people are not being exposed to diseases that are being brought across the border like Arizona, Texas, and California are.
ReplyDeleteWhat diseases do Mexicans bring across the border that we have to deal with?

It is not always about the disease itself, but it is about the numbers.
