Illegal Alien . . .

Statistics have no bearing upon what poor old DonDiego communicated.

Here is the order of events DonDiego presented in this post:

First: The shooter entered the United States illegally.  [note: His first action contemporaneous with his entry into the United States was to violate United States Law.]

Second: The shooter attacked the police officer.  Umm, . . . again illegally.

These are the facts.

One needn't do a statistical analysis to determine the odds that an ilegal alien would be more likely or less likely to commit a crime.  The staistics about all or any other illegal-aliens in the country are irrelevant to DonDiego's post.

There is no stereo-typing in poor old DonDiego's post.  It addresses one illegal alien who shot at one police officer.  This illegal alien shot at a police officer.  He should not have been in the United States.  Perhaps a wall would've stopped him.

Next time an illegal alien succeeds in commiting a homicide or even just a serious maiming, . . . DonDiego proposes that PJStroh explain to the victim's spouse that it was statistically unlikely.

(By the way poor old DonDiego has not "connect(ed) illegal aliens with high rates of crimes" within this post. He related the tail of one illegal alien attacking one US Police Officer.   PJStroh must have confused poor old DonDiego with another poster.) 

Ug...I seem to have struck a chord.  This is my final post on this thread.

Here's the problem, DonDIego.  I speak and read English.   So I can read your sentences without need of translating or interpreting them.    This is your sentence:

"DonDiego was connecting the fact that the Arkansas-shooter entered the Country illegally to his actions."

This connection you have stated is a stereotype that is not factual.    Nobody is contesting the fact that the Arkansas murdered was an illegal alien.  Nobody is contesting the fact the Florida bomber was Filipino.  Both of those facts have the same amount of relevance to their crimes....but in one case DonDiego has made that connection.  He has said as much.   Thats not my opinion - those are his own words.

I'm sorry if pointing this out offends anyone.

Re: PJStroh's last post on this thread

DonDiego's Final Post on this thread, . . . hopefully:

Two Facts:

1. The Arkansas shooter entered the United States illegally; entry location unknown..

2. The Arkansas shooter engaged in a shootout with a police officer in Arkansas [hence, the terminology "Arkanasas shooter"]

Two  Conclusions:

1. If the Arkansas shooter had been prevented from entering the United States illegally he would not have engaged in a gunfight in Arkansas. 

2. The Arkansas shooter should be punished to the full extent of the law. 

Two More Facts:

1. The Florida Bomber entered the United States legally through his mother's birth canal in Brooklyn, New York.

2. The Florida Bomber sent "bomb-like devices" which failed to detonate to prominent Democrats.

Two More Conclusions:

1. The entry of the Florida Bomber into the United States was legal and not preventable.

2. The Florida Bomber should be punished to the full extent of the law.

A Simple Statement:

DonDiego favors legal immigration into the United States from anywhere in the World and by people of any race, color, creed, or religion, . . . or height* or width* (* within reason).

A Simple Qualifier:

This does not mean everyone anywhere should be admitted into the United States; certain standards and behavioral histories of applicants for entry may be legitimate reasons to reject them.  Besides everyone from anywhere in the World would not fit.

PJ prefers to split imaginary hairs instead of addressing the elephant in the room.
