"The Daca programme bars anyone with a criminal record from enrolling.

But according to US Citizenship and Immigration Services, almost 8% of Daca applicants had arrest records."

Quote:By far the two most common reasons for arrest among approved DACA requestors were driving related offenses excluding driving under the influence (38.90-percent of all arrests) and immigration-related offenses (22.05-percent). Only two other arrest types made up more than 5-percent of the total arrests for approved DACA requestors: theft, larceny, and similar offenses (12.32-percent) and drug-related excluding driving under the influence (8.57-percent). The USCIS news release notes that some individuals were approved with arrests for other offenses, including serious ones, such as battery (4.65-percent), driving under the influence (4.42-percent), assault (3.73-percent), rape (0.06-percent), and murder (0.02-percent).

From 2012 to 2018, 66,863 DACA requestors were denied DACA. Of these, 20,993, or 31.40-percent, had at least one arrest. Unfortunately, the USCIS's data does not include statistics on the nature of the arrests for those who were denied DACA benefits.


DACA requestors with no arrests were approved in 89.2-percent of all cases, and denied in 5.8% of cases. DACA requestors with exactly one arrest were approved in 70.8-percent of cases and denied in 17.5-percent of cases. Those DACA requestors with more than one arrest were approved in 54.8% of cases, while 33.5-percent of such cases were denied.
It is worth noting, however, that the vast majority of DACA requestors (797,297 in total) had no arrest record when the system was queried.

Quote:The term “arrests” includes civil apprehensions and does not reflect that the arrests resulted in convictions.

I'd think that "innocent until proven guilty" would be something known around these parts?

All seriousness aside someone defending Trump by saying he's not lying (did you see the "    "?) is hilarious. 

Gotta defend Trump though. Just gotta!

Edit to add: "Orange man" is bad. He's a liar and probably racist (or at least he appeals to them) along with many other faults. But that's just funny that people just that little quip to defend him and his words and actions. The adults in the room choose to address what he says and does without the cleverness of "orange man bad" I guess.
