The real number of Illegal crimes is even higher for at least TWO reasons anyone who has studied crime and statistics knows.

1) Fact. Second and Third world Immigrant communities both Legal and Illegal, tend to under report crime. This is due to language barriers, an inherent mistrust of police due to rampant police corruption within their birth country, A fear of local police because they are illegal, etc. Likewise Immigrant Criminals (Legal and Illegal) prey upon their own communities because they know it is less likely to be reported and because they know the community. Thus many crimes committed by illegals are going unreported. Thus the number of crimes committed by Illegal Immigrants is higher.


2) The numbers are ONLY for those caught and convicted. A Mexican or Canadian Illegal is FAR more likely to flee beyond the long arm of the law because they can simply cross back over the border and are immune from prosecution for all but the worst offenses.
