During the current presidential campaign, the vitriol has been intense. Just in the last few months, former President Donald Trump has spoken of immigrants as criminals and mentally ill people who are "poisoning the blood of our country." Florida Gov. (and former presidential candidate) Ron DeSantis said migrants suspected of carrying drugs across the border should be shot, without specifying how drug smugglers could be told apart from other migrants.
However, research indicates that immigrants commit less crimes than U.S.-born people.
Ah, NPR. The network that claims Israel is an illegitimate apartheid state committing genocide in "Palestine", that Joe Biden has no signs of dementia and that socialism has been a sparkling success everywhere its been tried now tells us migrants don't commit crimes.
