3 examples isn't a great way to show nationwide trends.

Over 2000 convicted criminals - illegals captured by ICE

This is from 2015.

In New York, a sanctuary city that has received the most immigrants from Republican-run border states, crime decreased in most major categories in 2023 compared to the year before, as confirmed by a January report from the New York City Police Department. This follows reductions in most crime categories in the city in 2022. New York City remains one of the safest big cities in the country despite sensational claims that it is being overwhelmed by crime.

From the same article linked above, since you seem so obsessed with New York City.

The date.. that doesn't invalidate the claim that actual criminals from other nations come into this nation illegally and commit crimes here. That's additional crimes that could be deterred if we... closed the border tightly. The point I was making with NY, is as of recent, like I mentioned before there's crimes committed by illegals. Had those illegal not entered our nation and into NY, cops wouldn't have been jumped, a 13 year old and a 15 year old wouldn't have been victimized. That's just NY.. and 5 minutes of searching things off the top of my head from what has happened in the last month or two til today.

I'll do you one better... Cartel in Arizona.

My grandparents came here legally... through legal channels. Nice try.

Obviously. It's just everyone else that immigrated that wasn't legal.

I love that you didn't even read my comment there.

Are they stealing your jobs, too?
