The illegals I have met, usually abide by the law far more than anyone else since they have more to lose, its like having 2 strikes in a 3 strike state, but without having done anything yet. And how do you know that the person committing the crimes where you live are illegal, did you go ask them, hey are you illegal cause I just noticed that you were speeding heyuk. I lived in a border state, what I saw was there were almost no illegals living there, they get out of dodge hella fast since thats like the only area where they have checkpoints.
The majority of the friends I have who are illegal are great people and abide by the laws (other than being here illegally and identity theft) and are just too lazy to apply for citizenship cause of how long it takes. They are not scared of check points or background checks or all the immigration yadda yadda cause they have a nice care package that was bought when they came over.
I lived in the "Valley" Mission Tx for a long time. I have never witnessed anything to make me think illegals do anymore of any type of crime than anyone else. Actually, the majority of the entitled people who think they will not be caught are generally white people that I would meet (though there were not many) and I don't think I saw a single black or asian person in the town. My wife is mexican, none of her family is illegal, but the amount of ignorance I see from people in relation to illegals is staggering. The people who believe and repeat the stereotypes of illegals being lazy, lawbreakers are usually like my backasswards family in Georgia. And the type of idiotic things I hear them say are "Hey those mexicans (they were not mexican, probably puerto ricans taller darker) are stealing all our watermelons ( they had just harvested their leased field in GA)."
Ideas like this make me want to punch a baby since the word illegals is a replacement word for mexican usually. And most of these ignorant backwoods people forget that there is no such thing as white. Where does your family come from? Oh they were immigrants? Did they get here legally? What country? Oh your german so you must be "pure blood nazi" right? My wife is Mexican, but is not really, shes whiter than me and has more spaniard blood than anything, shoot her grandmother was white as a ghost with red hair. I am cherokee indian, german, scottish, welsh, which means I am closer to mexican than she is since I have cherokee which were at least on the same continent as mexico before her family moved there.
Generalizations do not reinforce a point, you should say according to this source:
http://wikipedia.org illegal aliens from xxxx country tend to perpatrate crime in border cities at an alarmingly higher rate. I disagree with the whole concept. Lazy has nothing to do with it, go look up the laws to apply for citizenship, they are nuts and they require the immigrant to learn things people born here with college degrees never learned in school.
