Immigrant or illegal immigrant?
I notice this article is supposed to be about a correlation between illegal immigrants and crime. However, in all of the telling examples, the good professor uses the term "immigrant" rather than "illegal immigrant". Obviously there is going to be a difference in propensity to commit crime between these two groups. Illegals are by definition criminals the very second they become illegal aliens/immigrants.
Is the confusion factor intentional? It's even present in the heading to the article.
What do the statistics about *legal* immigrants have to do with the premise of this article? Absolutely nothing.
I don't think even O'Reichly is espousing anti-immigration ideas. Anti-illegal immigration is a different thing entirely.
