The numbers may be under-reported but give a basis for comparison between states. I suspect the 10 top order hasn't changed much.
I agree, and being 10 years later, i wouldn't doubt if those number have doubled or tripled.

In NOVA we have our share here. And in the Richmond area I don't think it's a huge problem down there either. I've encountered a few in Maryland (If you count that as a southern state)

But they aren't a problem to me. Not like they are damaging property or causing a ruckus. If they were, they would have been dealt with accordingly.

I have never had a relative murdered either but I would still fight to make sure that killers either get life or the death penalty. We are all in this together as Americans and afterall this is our country even though we only occupy a small part of it. Even though illegal immigration hasn't affected some areas like it has others we should all be concered about it and make sure that these illegals are deported.

I must tell you, you are gravely mistaken. Illegal immigrants are a big problem in the DC/MD/VA metro area. Even more so in Montgomery County, MD as I believe it's a sanctuary county.

Dealt with accordingly? That's a big fat no. There are cases of illegal aliens committing multiple crimes and has never been jailed or deported. They are also drug mules, and they bring drugs into your community.

The only thing that's been done was the work of councilman Corey Stewart. He kicked illegals out of Prince William County, VA. See Violent Crime Rate Plunges 36.8% in Prince William County | CoreyStewart.com (http://coreystewart.com/blog/violent-crime-rate-plunges-36-8-prince-william-county - broken link). I think you can learn a few things here.

Oh my gosh, it is big in the South. Georgia, Tennesee, North Carolina, Virginia, Florida. Georgia has a lot of illegal immigration in Atlanta, or did have that, Tennesee is known to have illegal immigration all over, North Carolina is known for it in Greensboro, Florida obviously in Miami and all over. Even Louisiana has some areas where illegal immigrants find comfort.

Many so called Americans hire them and make money off their labor . Many here are probably some of those who do this . They are not goign to admit it though . They will sell their childrens future down the line for a profit today and claim they are just being ' compassionate' to those who steal across the borders .
