So for the estimated 40% of "illegals" in the US who are former visas holders or lawful entrants who never left, they potentially never committed a crime (with regards to their entry and presence in the US).
Such a huge part of the population that gets ignored in the immigration debate. Also the chunk more likely to actually take jobs from citizens (as they tend to be skilled/educated).
Careful Pat...you're getting into nuance and facts. Gotta keep it to black and white or people get defensive about their lack of knowledge....
