You're middle class and struggling (pretend I remembered a link to that article describing how rough a family that makes 250k a year has it due to taxes)

If the 1099 only shows 275k in sales proceeds you need a lot more information to determine if you're rich. For instance, was your adjusted cost basis 300k? Then you're not rich, you lost nearly 10%. Any schmuck with a $20,000 investment account can rack up a 275k 1099, that doesn't mean they're not still a schmuck with a $20k investment account.

More importantly, $275,000 is how much actual rich people spend on a vacation. It's just not a big deal.

Why is there so much division in Trump popularity around the Mississippi? Shouldn't northern Ozark hill people and southern Ozark hill people both hate or love a flashy NY billionaire the same way? Is it a Scots vs German rivalry or something?

if you make 275,000 a year in your job that means your boss extracts 275,001+ a year in your labor, otherwise you would not have that job, OP.

So Illegal Immigrants actually do commit crime at far higher levels than Citizens and legal residents

On Murder Specifically:

quote:

But the GAO’s numbers do support that perception. Namely that illegals and non-citizens make up 3% and 8% of the population, respectively, but commit at least 22% to 37% of the murders. Illegals likely commit murder at about 10 times the rate of all U.S. inhabitants.

it's weird that illegal aliens commit 30% of the murder in the US considering that latinos altogether only commit 25% https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/u...fender_2013.xls

The FBI's numbers are for all crimes, whether solved or not. The GAO numbers are only for solved crimes which resulted in a conviction. So if the FBI has an unsolved crimee, then it doesn't contribute to the demographic data.

e: The table you linked doesn't even give the percentage you claimed it does. It gives numbers for ethnicity and sex of perpetrator against ethnicity and sex of victim.

Inverted Offensive Battle: Acupuncture Attacks Convert To 3D Penetration Tactics Taking Advantage of Deep Battle Opportunities

The federal court system handles only a tiny percentage of violent crimes, so using those stats to extrapolate the broader murder rate is unbelievably stupid. Also the author is a global warming denier and The American Thinker is about as credible as WND.

E: Here is a piece that actually uses applicable data.

While that's true, most have been here for more than ten years and there's no evidence that they're more violent than other demographics. Also it doesn't seem likely that they've actually taken any jobs from you. So your whole "DEPORT THEM ALL" platform is kind of dumb, especially when one considers how many families would be broken up by it.

Now say we're handing green cards out like candy to people who broke the law as their first act on US soil.

Do you think net immigration will remain zero? Or will every Mexican with two feet sprint north to get that sweet deal?
