If the crime rate among immigrants started off higher than for the native population, one would expect the immigrant crime rate to drop as people stay in their new country longer and the causes of the initial high crime rate (poverty, unfamiliarity with culture, lack of knowledge of laws, etc) dissipate. None of this rebuts Trump's argument, which appears to me to be that 1) migrants generally commit crimes at a higher rate than the native population, and 2) America should stop migrants from entering. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ...
