It is highly probable the per capita rate would go down too. Poor people tend to be engaged in almost all sorts of blue collar crime at higher rates. Your white trailer park trash more likely to get a DUI than your white suburbanite.
Like I said - it's possible that the claim is true.
My issue was that no actual statistics were given to back up that claim.

Yup. If we rounded up all the poor, white trash and deported them, crime would also go down. By a huge amount. There are more of them.

You need "actual statistics" to convince you that people who aren't here won't commit crimes here? Ok.
I need actual statistics to show that the rate in DUIs would decrease if "illegals" were deported. It's possible - sure. But it's not "fact" unless the data bears that out.

Note: I am NOT suggesting we do this.

Why are certain people not making a bigger issue of driving drunk. I checked back and there's barely any threads on the problem of drunk driving. You would think that there were more threads on the tragic lost of life from this, but yet there's not, at least until an illegal alien does it.
Are non illegal drunk drivers acceptable on here????????????
Lots of illegals are driving, with and without driver's licenses, and never kill a soul. Why? Because they're NOT DRUNK.
It's not the illegality that causes the killing - it's the ALCOHOL.
And you are deliberately missing the point. Drunk or not, that illegal alien has no business being here. If she wasn't here, that man would still be alive.
I can't believe that you are attempting to defend the presence of illegals in this country.
To be honest, the fact that it was a DUI death is more relevant than the fact that the driver was an illegal alien, at least in reality world. And would it been just as significant to conservatives if it had been an old Black man or a Rabbi who had been killed as a Christian missionary?
if just one life could have been saved! is the democrats mantra when it comes to gun control. How about an illegal alien killing an innocent citizen while drunk driving?
Obviously you miss the point.
A drunk should not be driving and a drunk illegal alien shouldn't have been driving and should not have been in this country. A pattern has been developed where illegal aliens are driving drunk and killing innocents. what would be the first step to prevent such a tragedy? If you guessed keeping illehal aliens out of the country and deporting them, you'd be right.

It's not a defense of the person being here. It's an explanation of what actually caused the tragic accident. Namely, drunk driving.
Should the person have been deported previously? Probably, yeah (I don't have the facts on them, so can't say).
But it's not that person's mere presence that was the issue here - it was that this person was driving DRUNK and caused this terrible accident.

There's a pattern developing that "illegal aliens are driving drunk and killing innocents"? Do you have data to support that statement?
