I dont know who the Duke LAcrosse team are... but I'd say them.
Considering they're 'illegal' aliens... I've probably got that one wrong
Yeah and I'm sure more than half of the illegal aliens coming to America have a criminal record back in Mexico.
I should say more than half of them living here even.
100% of the illegal immigrants have already committed a crime. They broke the law by coming here. Regardless of what you think of the law - it is the law.
That doesn't mean anything though. You have to factor in actual baseline numbers if you're going to say "most likely." In other words, who is more likely to commit a crime, a citizen of China or a citizen of Luxembourg. Obvsiously, given that there are 1.2 Billion people in China, someone in China is more likely to commit a crime. Plus, you say that fully one third of the Duke University Lacrosse players have a criminal record, but you don't have any stats on the criminal records of the illegal immigrants, so the assertion itself has absolutely not merit.
And Fiddle also points out something you didn't. I think you might need to rethink you're statistical analysis. :)
Cranks, it's funny how your obsession with thc2883 clouds your thinking process. Not that you could ever think rationally anyways.
Thanks, S_H, for your coherent and relevant comment.
The logic is flawed in that the Duke lacrosse team has, what, roughly 20 members? That hardly seems like an accurate sample size to compare and contrast with regard to a group which is millions strong. Fiddle's right in that every illegal immigrant broke American law by coming over illegally. That said, surely cranky was trying to imply that the Duke lacrosse team has committed more heinous crimes on average than illegal immigrants.
Actually, the Duke lacrosse team has 47 members. However, the argument that every illegal alien is, by definition, a criminal because they accepted the silent conservative invitation to come here and work cheap is a bit of a strawman argument. The same social demographic that is howling about the outrage of illegal immigration is also the same group that has forcefully created a set of circumstances that practically vacuums poor people up from other countries and brings them here to be used and abused.
^ oh come on. you cannot believe that. in fact, you are so wrong. for your information, the mexican government encourgaes people to cross the border -- they need to do something so their people have jobs, so they actively encourage their own people to cross the border illegally. you're argument is so ridiculous its laughable. yeah, sure, blame republicans. i urge you to learn more on this issue before making such a statement -- which smacks of biterness, rage and is so obviously personal, that its absurd. so did clinton do the same thing? i mean come one -- 11 million did not cross the border illegally just during the bush years, now did they. ridiculous argument cranky.
what is your obsession with lacrosse players? you made some comment to me because i'm a lacrosse player -- so you like us, you really like us, huh?
ahh, and i see you're blocking me from sending messages. real mature. real mature dude.
Sorry, Kev. I can't associate with you. You're not an A-lister.
if i'm not an a-lister, then you must be a d-lister, if even that. lol. what defines a a-lister anyway? you?
p.s but i do think you have a thing for us ivy league lacrosse players.
oh yeah and cranky, you're childish "efforts" and i think you know what i mean, will only turn people against you. be careful. very careful now.
It was a joke, Kev. Ha Ha, funny. And, no, I don't know what you mean. And as for the "be careful, very careful, now":Had enough drama queen for today?
^ whats laughable is you try to paint yourself as an open minded person. sure. how many more times are you going to call me "queen." don't you see that when you do that, you're the one who loses all credibility? hater.
Kev: From WordWeb Online: "Noun: drama queen (informal) someone who is melodramatic" It has nothing to do with your being gay.
gay! i'm not gay! just what are you driving at? so when you called me a "mad queen" the other day, what does the www say the definition of that is? face it, you meant it as an insult in all cases and thats how i took it, as did many others.
As the evidence has proven the lacrosse team did nothing wrong but hire a lying stripper who is doing this for the money. So I would say illegals
The federal prisons are hardly choked up with Duke lacrosse players, are they? Now, that Nifong's case against the players appears to be collapsing and it appears that the accuser may have perjured herself, it looks as if the aliens are the sweepstakes winners by a mile. I'd much rather walk down the streets of Durham at night than parts of downtown Los Angeles, crank.
