Drunk driving, rape, murder, robbery are bigger crimes than overstaying a visa. |

Crime is crime. Illegal ALIENS shouldn't be in American prisons anyway. They should be DEPORTED and BARRED FROM REACHING THIS COUNTRY in the first place. Get real. |

Crime is crime, and the way to differentiate between crimes is the way in which people are punished . The things you mentioned are serious and deserve a punishment that fits the crime (imprisonment) for the crime of criminal trespass and illegally entering a sovereign country deportation is a suitable punishment. |

yes, criminals are overfilling prisons, that's why we send illegal immigrants back to their home country. You can just focus on certain crimes, the goverment has a huge responsibility to protect it's citizens, which means they have to cover a wide variety of threats. Remember, illegal immigrants can also commit all those other crimes you mentioned too! |

we have enough of that here and now we have added people who are not supposed to be here doing those crimes as well as some people who may not be rapist or murders but who just came illegal but still a crime no less and you may not spend years in prison for that illegal crossing act but you could be sent home ouch now is that so bad then you could try and come legal a real hassle i know but well worth the cost of freedom and not being stuck in that terrible country you escaped from what you say its beautiful there and unless i have been there to shut up and America is full of racist Nazi people well no need to worry just don't come back easy maybe you should try Germany i hear its beautiful or how about Iraq |

I'll tell you who the real criminals are - the ones who remove the tags from mattresses! They should all be burned! |

Overstaying a visa is a lesser crime in my opinion. To answer your second question though, not necessarily. Some of the real criminals were released early due to the jails overfilling. Instead of spending money on deporting, we should spend more money for correction facilities so the real criminals stay behind bars. |

No worries 'cause those that are overstayng their visas are getting deported and not going to be housed in prisons, they may spend a night in a local jail before being shipped out. Unless of course they are sentenced to time in prison for doing any of those things you mentioned which they will most likely serve a portion. |

Well, let me answer your question. All the crime you mentioned in your question are affiliated. A person whose visa is invalid, then he drives while he is drunken, after that he rapes because he is drunk, and then robbery progress, final step is murder in order to clean the crime scene. So what is a bigger crime? Of course Overstaying a visa is the bigger crime. |

sometimes those who are drunk driving, raping, murdering and robbing are also here illegally. |

They all deserve prison time.
The first one, after serving their time, needs to be ejected from the country. |

Are you kidding? The rapists, murders and robbers go free. It's the drug addicts, alcoholics and mentally ill who are filling our prisons. |

drunk driving, rape, robbery and murder are by far. that is why those criminals get prison time and those who overstay their visa get deported |

Among them rape and murder always carry a death sentence
but murder is greatest because a life is taken that is in real terms
but before God all crimes are equal. |

If there were not 400 thousand reasons to go to prison maybe the prisons would be a little less full. On the other hand maybe they should just use a single bullet and execute all of the inmates committed for violent crimes. |

Hmmmmm... how about an illegal alien driving, hitting a US veteran on a bike with the car he was driving, and then trying to run away? The vet died from his injuries. I have not heard if the illegal was drunk. but we will now be supporting the illegal for manslaughter for a while in the local jail and then maybe prison. How much $$$$ is that a year for just one inmate? That accident would not have happened if the illegal was not here. As far as who is in prison and the jails. I worked in a small county jail. Most of the inmates were there for possession of illegal drugs, anything from marijuana to heroin. Then I had a number of inmates for drunkenness - driving or just being in public. Another high one was spousal abuse, male and female accused.... A great number of these ended up being repeat offenders and were sent to state prison for 1-3 years or more. I can count on one hand the number of murderers and rapists we housed. 5 and we were a small county. I am sure that Los Angeles Country would have higher number, but then the population is also much higher than where I lived and worked. However, the number of prison inmates who are there for victimless crimes far outnumber those with victims.
It doesn't minimize the fact that being an illegal alien/immigrant is still ILLEGAL and is punishable by law. The sentence is usually deportation. |
