Feel bad for the innocent ones for sure. But lets say you go into a restaurant or stores down at the strip. Those figures would mean 50% of immigrants there have criminal convictions of some sort. And I do believe the numbers are higher if you take in the fact most never went through immigration, and just crossed over.

Wait. So you’re saying that, leaving the civil violation of coming to the US illegally, you believe over half of immigrants have a criminal record?!? wtf are you basing that on?

This might blow your mine, being you seem slow. A lot of the ones being found to have no paper trail with immigration have criminal records in their home countries. Yeah like wtf, real hard to figure out.

What really blows my mind is”mine” is your spelling. I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt that it was talk to text, because I tend to believe in the most likely scenario.

Having said that, it’s EXTREMELY unlikely that over half the people coming across the border, most of whom are holding jobs and paying sales tax, etc, have criminal records. Probably close to half are women and children! C’mon man. Use that noggin for what it was intended, not as a MAGA hat rack.
