I won’t offer a rebuttal, it’s your opinion that US citizens abroad should be immediately deported. The point stands: undocumented immigrants commit less crimes than citizens.
Nonsense.
They all have committed crimes with the first one being either sneaking across the border or overstaying a visa. Yes, it's a misdemeanor for their first offense when it comes to sneaking across the border or overstaying a visa but the second time around, it is a felony. Besides, misdemeanors are still crimes.
Then, in order to work here (BTW, it's against the law for them to hold a job here), they either commit ID theft or use a fake SSN (that fake SSN often belongs to a living person who, like the ID theft victim, gets put into a world of hurt) or they are being paid under the table, thereby engaging in tax evasion.
So...tell us all again how illegals have a low crime rate.
Because the proper legal channels are entirely ****ed and Republicans don’t geninuely want increased legal immigration.
No, we don't need these people and we don't want increased legal immigration because we don't need it. That doesn't give anyone the right to come here illegally instead.
The legal channels aren't screwed up, why should we increase legal immigration above the levels that they're currently at?
Of course they're screwed up. Otherwise there wouldn't be so much illegal immigration. Government needs to work with businesses and develop a reasonable plan to issue seasonal, temporary and other forms of work immigration permits.

Really ? Interesting. An engineer I am currently working with is from Korea, and he isn't really haven't too much of a problem , he said it is a lot of work and it is taking a long time but things are moving forward.
Where are all the trumpers who posted ad nauseum for a week that Mollie TIbbets would be the rallying cry to November's red tide??? I am hoping they are silent in their shame. But more likely looking for another brown person to go after.
We're all right here pointing out how shameful some of you people are when it comes to supporting the illegal alien community. How does this change the fact that millions of people in this country agree that this guy shouldn't have been here in the first place?
You can vote, yeah? And you’re voting for people who like to systematically oppress people because they’re oh so afraid of one powerful illegal immigrant.
Considering the nature of the crime behind the topic of this thread, do you really want to go there? Why should a 20 year old American girl have to worry about being killed by "one powerful illegal immigrant" while out for a jog in central Iowa?
Of course they're screwed up. Otherwise there wouldn't be so much illegal immigration. Government needs to work with businesses and develop a reasonable plan to issue seasonal, temporary and other forms of work immigration permits.
Immigration into this country should benefit this country, immigration shouldn't be the welfare program for Central and South America. Much like divorce, Immigrating to the US is hard and expensive because it's worth it.

Those don't count though...they are victimless crimes...

Thank you for taking ownership! It’s exhausting hearing just come here legally when you know damn well you don’t want them here. You’re a champ!
Again, ignoring part of my post, I’ll bold it for you:
I am not defending the fact that an undocumented person murdered her
And yes, as it tragic as it sounds, every now and again something regarding an undocumented person will happen. Don’t get me wrong, I totally understand what you’re saying: if this person was never here, she may never have been murdered. That part is totally true, but to suggest that US citizens are perfectly innocent people is.. well.. malarkey. People, such as yourself, enjoy 30 second sound bites that appeal to emotions; the world doesn’t work in such a way though.
The very fact that you used the term undocumented rather than illegal alien is a tell all with you. No one is suggesting that our citizens don't commit murder and other crimes also. When they do they are held accountable. It seems with illegal aliens they get a pass and are rewarded instead (and I didn't mean for murder). If anyone appeals to emotions it's the liberal left and ethnocentrics.
