“Illegal doesn’t make them criminals”
I KID YOU NOT… that was the headline in the IndyStar on July 24th…
Criminal: adj. One that has committed or been legally convicted of a crime. American Heritage Dictionary
You do not have to be convicted of a crime to be a criminal, you simply have to have committed the act of breaking the law.
That being said, what follows in their article is so full of bull squeeze that I had to buy a ladder to climb out of the steaming pile they laid. The first thing written in the article is a clarification of their position…
There is little evidence that undocumented immigrants are more likely to commit violent crimes.
Well that’s nice, and probably correct… BUT, having already broken the law by standing on US soil they have already become criminals, just not violent ones.
Now, I’m already rolling my eyes at the continued use of the term “undocumented worker”, mainly due to it’s implication that a)they’re not here illegally when they ARE and b)that they’re ACTUALLY working. There are over 12 million illegal aliens in my country according to US Government records and I can GUARANTEE you that 100% of them are not actively employed in the US workforce.
Don’t feed me the BS that these people are just misunderstood young men looking for a good job, who happened to have forgotten their papers back home… They INTENTIONALLY crossed this border illegally, and illegally obtained jobs, a large percentage of them doing so via stolen identities (a crime in the US if you need to check). So, while not convicted, they’ve already become criminals two times over.
They go on to admit the fact that entering the country minus the correct paperwork IS illegal (negating their own headline) but brush it off on the US because it’s OUR system that is causing the harm, and not the fault of their home country who happens to be hemorrhaging citizens faster than they can say corrupción all while reaping the billion dollar benefits from foreign money shipped back by those who have invaded us.
I will admit that we don’t have a perfect system, but to fault the US for this 100% is just WAY too typical. We’re the bad guys.
I’ll leave you with this last, and most absurdly BACKWARDS comment in the entire article.
Most illegal immigrants quickly integrate into the nation’s economic and social fabric.
