So... do you just not know what a "crime rate" is?


If there were more illegal immigrants in a country than citizens then the crime rate for illegals would be higher.

So you don't know. Got it.

Here's the explanation: crime rates are adjusted for population. The raw number of people (or crimes) doesn't matter - it's the number of crimes committed per 100k people.

Try again.

Illegal immigrants may pay in more than they consume as a stand-alone statistic, but their 5 children who are "legal" courtesy of 14th amendment loophole bullshit demolish that gap thanks to food stamps, medicaid, welfare housing, translation services, etc.

You're moving the goalposts because you're no longer talking about illegal immigrants - now you're just talking about legal citizens.

Regardless, I'm interested in seeing a source on this "staggering" burden, because I've never come across any such analysis.

Literally impossible because 100% of illegal immigrants are criminals.

You know what the fuck I meant by that - don't be obtuse, you're smarter than this.

And again, their children drive up these crime rates but get lumped into the native-born citizen category to further the disparity.

Wrong. While the children of illegal immigrants do have higher crime rates than their parents, they are not higher than the national average. It typically takes between one and two generations for crime rates to "normalize"; at no point are the rates for immigrants and their children, including illegal immigrants, higher than the general population.
