I've been talking to the folks here in Sun City, mostly older GOP folks and they have a theory: They got tired of their assigned role of "oppressor" of every special interest that had a beef with the country. Why did my generation of seniors, who were modest people, honest and decent, become the leading cheerleaders of a man who is the vulgar inverse of all that? Looks like the north suburbs will be on the short end of the snowfall totals. The whole issue is driven by GOP political strategy, not fact. Today, the belief that immigrants are more likely to commit crimes is perpetuated by ‘issue entrepreneurs’ who promote the immigrant-crime connection in order to drive restrictionist immigration policy. The study added that this disparity also holds for young men most likely to be undocumented immigrants: Mexican, Salvadoran, and Guatemalan men. tripled between the 1990s and 2013, while violent crime declined 48% and property crime fell 41% over that period.Ģ015 National Academy of Sciences study found: Immigrants are in fact much less likely to commit crime than natives, and the presence of large numbers of immigrants seems to lower crime rates. The number of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. The challenge in finding concrete numbers is due to a shortfall of data. There is no national database of crimes committed by undocumented immigrants or study that tracked the crimes they have committed. I really don't believe this is what our Founders had in mind for this country. Until we secure our borders, end chain migration, eliminate the visa lottery system, our "dreamer" issue is bound to repeat.

Why is this issue so important to President Trump and the Republicans in Congress? That fixing the "dreamer" issue needs to be coupled with fixing some parts of our immigration system? Because they, like the rest of us, have seen this movie before. Is this starting to sound a bit like chain migration? So how do we fix the "dreamer" issue? These kids who were dragged across the border by illegal parents? How do we keep those families together? If we granted amnesty to those "dreamers", whose numbers range somewhere between 800,000 and 4,000,000, what about the rest of the illegal family? Can you already hear the Left clamoring to let all the family stay over here? Maybe even grandma and grandpa or aunts and uncles. The entire family stays together and stays here - legally. Not to have the entire family stay together by going back to their country of origin. In other words, make the parents legal also, just to keep the family together. Again, someone on the Left suggested that if a baby was born here, we should make all efforts to keep the family together. Then the discussion turned to the "unfairness" of breaking up families. First off, many on the Left hate that term. A few years ago on a cable show, I remember people from two opposing sides discussing the "anchor baby" issue. That WAS the intent.ĭo you want to know how our immigration system has becomes so abused? Here is one example. It was to ensure former slaves were treated fairly - that they would be considered to be citizens. This Amendment, originally penned in 1868, was part of reconstruction after the Civil War. Does our Constitution allow for anyone born on United States soil to be a citizen? Yes. Every now an again, the "anchor baby" issue pops up to the surface. Is our immigration broken like so many on the Left believe it is? No, but we have sure made it about as complicated as it need be.Ī word about "anchor babies", even though it is the "dreamers" right now which are getting all the press. Coming into this country we have people who are legal immigrants, illegal immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers, chain migration, visa lottery, TPS (Temporary Protective Status), I-9 visa holders, student visa holders, and so forth. It allowed me to think deeper about our immigration system.

But it is over, I have taken the article down (even though I corrected it), and it is time to move on.īut out of everything bad can come some good. I issued a mea culpa on the article, and then on my FB page.

In reality, due to the magnitude of the error, it was "fake news". I was corrected gently by a friend of mine, and then not so gently (and rightly so) by someone I don't know, when she called my article "fake news". I confused "anchor babies" with "dreamers". Yesterday I made a huge boo-boo on a post.
