Above you said you expect there is no real difference in crime rates


between undocumented immigrants and US citizens, and there is. I also don't think what turk said was correct -- he injected a new variable about severity due to gang activity that just isn't supported by facts. Especially considering "crimes of violence" was one of the variables (and the point I made about "immigrant" gangs being primarily made up of sons of immigrants born in the US).

If we both agree that the numbers say undocumented immigrants are less likely to commit property crimes or crimes of violence, and also agree we're just spitballing as to why (and drawing different conclusions) I've got no issue.

And sorry you're not feeling well. 11 days being sick feels like an eternity. I had one of those viruses a few years ago that just would not go away (nasty cough for a full 3 weeks) and dont' wish that on my worst enemy (and no, I don't consider you an enemy -- at most a worthy and friendly adversary on occasion in this corner of Stupidspace!)

Feel better dude.
