PHOENIX — This is part two of a five-part series looking at how illegal immigration affects U.S. border security, the criminal, health care and education systems, as well as the economy. Watch the series this week on FOX News Channel.

Many police officials in states along the U.S.-Mexican border say they are fed up with the number of illegal aliens populating American prisons, many of them incarcerated for violent crimes such as murder, rape and robbery.

Almost one in six inmates in Arizona, for example, is a Mexican citizen.

"It is a phenomenon that law enforcement recognizes as a major problem," said one undercover detective, who specializes in street gangs and goes by the name "Paco."

The third installment of this series focuses on how Los Angeles' public health care system is overwhelmed by the uninsured and illegal immigrants. Look for it on FOX News and FOX News.com.

Anyone still buying the "doing jobs Americans refuse to do" nonsense?

This is part two of a five-part series looking at how illegal immigration affects U.S. border security, the criminal, health care and education systems, as well as the economy.

Illegal immigration puts an immense strain on our judicial system, our health care system, and our educational system. American taxpayers and American workers are taking a bath so that some American employers can save a few bucks on cheap, illegal labor.

The employment of illegal immigrants is the most wasteful and expensive crime in American history.

[madfly]

I am having this thread removed and getting a do-over.

Headline has typos and mistakes (Pt1) and this is part 2 copy.

How do I remove my tagline? It keeps showing up, it was a anniversary greeting from last week ;)

Thanks! The ACTUAL title of this article is:

Border States Grapple With Alien Criminals

[JFK_Lib]

Those Mexican criminals are just taking jail cells that Americans are too lazy to take!

/sarcasm

[Finger Monkey]

Almost one in six inmates in Arizona . . .is a Mexican citizen

We should deport them to Mexico. To the bottom of Mexico, not feed, house, clothe, aircondition, and give medical care to them.

If we send them way south, they it will take them longer to work their way back to the U.S.A, and by that time, the Gubment will have taken care of the border issue. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Christian Higuera, who is serving time for assault, has fathered an illegitimate child, born in Arizona. He said he hopes he will be allowed to stay with his child, an American citizen, once he gets out of jail.

Even if he does have an anchor baby, he committed a crime and that should result in his deportation.

I can't Take it anymore! Theres almost no fight left in me!I've been watching this go on, since I was about twelve! I'm pushing fifty now!

Anyone still buying the "doing jobs Americans refuse to do" nonsense?

Mojo, that would be a great poll question.

I don't know anyone personally who believes it. I know a few who think it's convenient to spout it.

[hineybona]

Why is Bush so kind to Mexico in the first place.Who the hell needs them of all countries?

[LNewman]

I know a few who think it's convenient to spout it.

I failed to add that these people all directly benefit from the illegal influx.

[LNewman]

I don't see why any of "our leaders" have a reason to be predisposed to Mexico.

I don't buy many, if any, of the "reasons" put forth why this is so ... the "jobs that Americans won't do" is just the least of them. It's just tired old crapola.

I have a feeling a lot of it is to do with the economics. Right now it costs 11k per year per student in America. Then if they are poor, welfare for the parents, healthcare etc..

So by the time the person is ready to enter the workforce we are talking like 300k per person. And thats an upfront investment before it starts paying back. Meanwhile if a 20 year old Mexican comes across the border it costs the government very little. Even if they have to give 500 bucks in antibiotics, its nothing compared to 20 years investment at over 10k a year.

This immigrant then pays taxes even if illegal. For example when they buy something from a store, they are paying the property tax on the store, the regulatory fees, the sales taxes, the tarriffs etc. And wherever they live, they are paying hte property taxes, and in a way they are pyaing the income taxes of every legal person they do business with.

From the government's perspective the more of these freebies the better, thrown into the economy.
