why do people think illegal immigrants are pro-crime?

Question

my parents used to be illegal immigrants but they raised to me respect the law

just because they're here illegally doesn't mean they are encouraging their children to break laws

kjbkjhfg i'm smarter than most of the white people at my school so i don't know who you're calling an idiot

Answer 1

Sneaking into a foreign country where you do NOT speak the language and teach your children to respect the laws is a direct contradiction and would thus make them lousy role models.

The mindset of people who believe the end justifies the means is common among illegals. They think it is acceptable enter somewhere illegally as long as you don't get caught. This serves to demonstrate that you were probably raised to PICK AND CHOOSE ~which~ laws you respect.

They're definetely a hate institution, however I trust Armywife(GASP), they must dedicate against the law as a institution to be charged a hate crime. THe exceptional factor is that it makes it less complicated so as to add the dislike crime multiplier to any member of those companies once they do participate in against the law. To people who find themselves in opposition to hate crime being a legislation , I must say hate crime is only a smaller variant of terrorism. Terrorism is an try to generate worry in a group (United States). Hate crime is an try to generate worry in a smaller group (a distinctive race). As for Villaragosa, I do not feel we must fear approximately his club to any La Raza institution. He's corrupt and is underneath the wallet of builders. He's been attacking immigrants dwelling and dealing within the downtown field on behest of the builders. To folks that do not appreciate, he is shoving out the latino's in downtown and changing it with white persons. I'm no longer pronouncing its a well factor he is doing that, however a minimum of we would manage his alleged racism with greed. I feel its how America is truthfully handling La Raza individuals in outstanding function. It dull that we have got emerge as like English colonies in Africa. The dull factor is such a lot hispanic forget about Vilaragosa's corruption. Racism within the hispanic populace on the whole will support him get re-elected and the issues of the hispanic group might be overlooked in desire of the wealthy.

Answer 3

Illegal immigrants may not be "pro crime" but they are criminals nonetheless. Some commit more crimes than others. But all illegal aliens have broken federal law.

And your parents didn't respect our laws enough to uphold them. Glad they taught you different than they did.

People have been called hypocritical on here for much less by the pro troll crowd.

Answer 4

They think this way because they are ignorant and do not know the facts and some even when they know the facts still refuse to admit thes facts.These people are somply called RACISTS.

Every study that I know of that has measured crime rates of illegal aliens vs crime rates for the genearl citizen population,concludes that there is minimally no difference and in most cases the illegal alien crime rates are LOWER than the general population (For proper comparison one must remove from the illegal "crimes" those non violent crimes related solely to their being here such as documrent forging etc .

Answer 5

First off breaking the law comming here. Lying about everything there is to lie about in order to work. Stealing identies, hitting the streets every single time we try and enforce ANY laws the rest of us are expected to obey. From DUI check points to seat belt check points to license checks and housing codes and all the rest.

I can't tell you how much easier it would be for most of us if we just obeyed the laws we felt like or could afford to obey. It's not to say many don't. They just know that if they do and get caught they don't go crying "racism" or claim people are unfairly "targeting" them.

I'm sure it must be a change to adjust to a system of laws when people come from countries that might not see it as wrong or have the same laws. Problem is.....they are here now. It's their responsibility to abide by these laws not ignore them because they don't like them.

It was a number of years ago but there was an American citizen, a student, that was in a country where something as simple as tossing a gum wrapper was considered a major crime. Could have been spitting on the sidewalk for all I can remember.....I just remember the punishment was public flogging and enough times that it could have resulted in his death. A very cruel and brutal form of punishment. Crime was really low there as well. Americans were upset not because he was being punished for a crime....but that it was such a severe punishment for such a trivial crime. He got his punishment though. Wrong as we may have thought it was.....but he went there.....he knew it was a crime but it was such a simple thing he didn't think much of it and never expected such a severe punishment. He didn't do it in defiance or scream about being targeted or calling people racist......and they didn't change their laws or turn a blind eye to it just because he was a young kid there from America that didn't know any better.

Their people knew you don't break laws....you don't even THINK of breaking them because the punishment was so severe. So they weren't "targeting" tourists, or Americans or "racist"......they were enforcing their laws and their strict enforcements of those laws made it one of the safest places to go. For their own citizens and for the visitors.

Thank heavens we aren't as harsh.....but this total disregard of our most basic laws is getting out of hand. Total disregard ends up being the crime ridden places these people supposidly fled from. Being a "free" country has it's limits. There is a price to pay for that. A "free" country doesn't mean a free for all.

Most aren't here and making it as a result of JUST comming over the border illegally. Fake documents, not their real name, driving without a license, raising chickens in a non-agriculture zoned area, multiple families in a single family home, no car insurance, working under the table, not paying taxes, not reporting ALL income, fraud, operating illegal businesses without a license, claiming illegal relatives as dependants, on down the line. One leads to another that leads to another.......most start screaming about one because they are afraid of people finding out how many other laws they have broken. They don't want DUI checks because then you'll find out you're not only drunk but have no license, no insurance, the car is stolen, the kids aren't in their seatbelts and that the documentation you present is a fraud and that you have a host of other stolen identies that then leads to the fact you're here illegally. (not you....just you in general) They don't want SS#s checked, nothing checked.....because way too many would have a rap sheet a mile long. And that could just simply be the nice family that didn't rock the boat that was just on their way for dinner one Fri. night.

Problem is....the rest of us are expected to abide by those laws. That's why when there's a stop there's not as many citizens getting caught as there are illegals. We know better. They aren't being "targeted".....just the majority of illegals aren't abiding by those laws either. They seem to think if you bust 5 illegals.....you should bust 5 white citizens and 5 black citizens and 5 asian citizens in order to be fair. Doesn't work that way coz the citizens already know not to do it.

Concentrate yourself in a 99% hispanic community and what do you expect? In which they proudly announce 77% of their community is illegal? Dugh? High crime, non-English speaking, gangs, drugs running rampent.......what do they expect?

I'm glad your parents taught you to respect the law. My question is did they teach you that because it's the right thing to do as a citizen of this country or simply not draw attention to themselves and risk being caught for their own various crimes?

It has always surprised me about this "in the shadows" business......if something is wrong it's wrong....doesn't matter if it's "in the shadows" or out in the light of day. Not getting caught doesn't make you innocent. My parents taught me that If I couldn't say or do what ever it is I'm thinking of saying or doing right in front of God, the police or anywhere else......then I better re-think it.

Answer 6

Because their actions show that they are.

Many illegal aliens break more laws than just crossing the border. From throwing trash on the ground and littering (when you have thousands who do it, yes, it is a crime to the environment) to the fact that many illegal aliens steal IDs and commit document forgery.

If they don't know how to respect the laws of the land how do they teach YOU to? Simple answer is that they don't...which is why many anchor babies end up in gangs.

Answer 7

Despite what the liberal news is saying, the majority of illegals are criminals. Well technically they all are because of the fact that they entered the US illegally which is a crime. However, they avoid detection because if thier prints were ran through AFIS it would spit out a rap sheet. Only a rare few are coming here to "Make a better life for thier families" trust me.

Answer 8

Illegals who are still hiding thier crime, obviously, in a sense in 'favor' if at least that one crime. Former illegals, who have since respected the law, OTOH, could be safely assumed to be 'rehabilitated.'

Answer 9

Illegal implies a criminal act. 17% of federal inmates are illegal aliens which is a high percentage, taking in per capita figures. 95% of outstanding homicide warrants in LA are for illegal aliens. Estimates are more than 1 million sex crimes are committed by illegal aliens.
It is hypocritical to break laws and then claim to be law-abiding. Legitimate acts that follow illegal acts do not justify the criminal action.

Answer 10

By their mere presence, they are breaking at least one law. They might not commit violent crimes or be bad people, but they are breaking our immigration laws.
I understand that it is hard to get the proper clearances to come here, but hey nothing good comes easy.
