And again, this is not TYPICAL. Typical would imply that this is how the majority behave. Of the millions of undocumented immigrants - whether asylum seekers, refugees, border-hoppers, people who flew in on visitor passes and just never bothered going home, MOST of them are "otherwise" law-abiding. There is a very small minority who are violent criminals.
Just as there is a very small minority of American citizens who are violent criminals.
If crime is the "typical" complaint, then perhaps begin with ridding the USA of Americans who are criminals. How about deporting the criminals who receive these illegal aliens. The ones who hire them. The ones who smuggle them in. How about we just send THOSE American citizens out of the country. With no one to illegally receive, hire, or smuggle the immigrants, there will be fewer immigrants coming in illegally.
We can go back and forth on this for months, or even forever. But when you discount ALL possible perspectives beside your own, you lose the debate.
