The Debate Over Migrant Crime Rates ... GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump has made "Migrant crime" a key talking point in his 2024 campaign, which has drawn the attention and derision of soi-disant media "Fact checkers".
Legal immigrants should therefore, logically, commit few if any crimes, for the same reason crime rates for CIA employees - each of whom is subject to an extensive background check, which usually includes a polygraph - should be close to zero.
As my colleague, Todd Bensman, recently explained the question of whether illegal migrants commit more or fewer crimes than the general population misses the real point: Every crime they commit could have been prevented if they had not been allowed into the community.
Lott explains there are two different "Measures of crime": the FBI's National Incident-Based Reporting System program, which "Counts the number of crimes reported to police"; and the National Crime Victimization Survey, which "Asks 240,000 people a year whether they have been victims of a crime".
According to Lott, the NCVS revealed that just 42 percent of violent crimes and 32 percent of property crimes were reported to the authorities in 2022, the last year for which statistics are available.
Since 2020, the FBI's number of reported crimes and the NCVS's number of total crimes have been negatively correlated.
What is clear is that many Americans are concerned about crime - particularly migrant crime - and if the local cops in America's wealthiest suburb are correct, at least one mourning family has good reason to be upset about both.
