While illegal immigrants account for about 3.5 percent of the U.S population, they represented 36.7 percent of federal sentences in FY 2014 following criminal convictions, according to U.S. Sentencing Commission data.

Illegal immigrants represented 16.8 percent of drug trafficking cases, 20.0 percent of kidnapping/hostage taking, 74.1 percent of drug possession, 12.3 percent of money laundering, and 12.0 percent of murder convictions

Exactly.

I was just speaking the other day to a cute gal from Spain, and she was just a reminder that Spanish culture, food, music, climate, and so on have a lot to recommend them worldwide.

When I was in Spain years ago, it was really great. We ran out of money during some sort of national strike, the bank closed, money-changers were halted, and so for 3 days we were basically living on begged food, and it was still a good experience.

But Spanish culture gets a bad reputation from Mexico, El Salvador, etc sending/allowing criminals to enter the US illegally.

Without fact checking it's obvious that the statistics johnnie quoted are total BS.

I can say that with nearly 100% certainty...
