I find it one of those well duh moments when people say immigrants have lower crime rates because anyone that knows their being somewhere could easily change if they are bad are going to try to stay out of trouble. Either they are illegal and don't want to get deported or they are legal and they came here for a legit reason and won't risk getting sent back.
My husband's grandfather (We'll call husband VIII, his dad VII, grandfather VI, great grandfather V) is from Peru and VI had to flee from there when V tried to overthrow the government and failed. Needless to say the rest of V's family needed to vacate the country regardless of the fact that they weren't part of it and VI was only a teenager. After a rocky path VI became a citizen and a professor at a college, VII was career military going to war for America, and VIII is now a paramedic saving lives. Talk about one immigrant creating a lot of good for America.
