It's actually not. It uses the last census info from 2000-2010 as well, you just have to pay attention. It also uses recent immigration enforcement programs, like S-Comm (2011) to make assessments.

Which are sources the 80s, 90s, and 2000s as well as programs created under the Obama Administration (obviously 2009 and later). So essentially almost 30 years of data was used to make these findings.... what else ya got?

Elaborate. Trump has been in office how long and how trotted out victims of illegal immigrants how many times already?

These folks are a disgusting prop for folks like you to get angry about.

Maybe and maybe not but the simple fact remains that any crime they commit from theft to murder is wholly avoidable by them not being here.

And, why were those people there in the first place?

Presidential theater.
You mean like the "dreamers" the Democrats trotted out?

Illegal aliens aren't immigrants so why would immigrants be reported? What does being a so-called redneck or a racist have to do with the illegal immigration issue?

Illegal aliens demonize themselves by coming to our country illegally. There is nothing racist or bigoted about wanting our immigration laws respected and enforced. This issue has nothing to do with racism. Illegal alien isn't a race it's an unlawful status in our country.


Every crime they do commit could have been preventable.
