Public [taxpayer funded] Study: Illegal Immigrants Commit Less Crime Than Americans
Judicial Watch ^ | June 12, 2012 | Corruption Chronicles

Posted on 06/12/2012 6:51:30 PM PDT by kevcol

Illegal immigrants are erroneously perceived to commit more crime based on the mistaken theory their population size is much larger than it really is, according to the findings of a respected public university in a southern border state.

If this isn’t the most ridiculous waste of taxpayer dollars, what is? A professor at a taxpayer-funded university in Arizona has actually published a study intended to answer a baffling question; why do so many Americans believe “undocumented immigrants” commit more crime? “The public consistently perceives immigrants, especially undocumented immigrants, as criminal,” says the Arizona State University professor (Xia Wang) of criminology who set the record straight.
.
.
As for the rest of the nation’s population, the Arizona study concludes unequivocally, that illegal immigrants “actually commit less crime than the native born.” Those who disagree aren’t being reasonable or rational, according to this brilliant piece of work. It’s all just a big mistake.

Look at the industriousness illegals, Mexican, let's be honest since they're the most numerous group, put into breaking the law to get here. As I've said repeatedly if Mexicans would put half the energy into fixing their country that they do into destroying ours than maybe someday Mexico will be a place Mexicans won't have to run away from.

Illegals are in the continuous act of committing a crime with every minute they stay in this country.

Illegal immigrants commit MUCH more crime than native Americans. Aside from many thousands of killings while drunk on the highways, they like..

Credit identity theft

Credit fraud (multiple names & ID’s)

Welfare fraud

Income tax fraud

Drug dealing (gangs)
