Dell ... read both of those things again (both articles) and try to fit them together

The first article stumbles all over itself. While it starts with “Records show that about 47,000 people were removed or deported from the U.S. after the Homeland Security Department sifted through 3 million sets of fingerprints taken from bookings at local jails.

About one-quarter of those kicked out of the country did not have criminal records, according to government data obtained by immigration advocacy groups that filed a lawsuit.”


Then it continues with an explanation “Immigration advocates say that the government instead spends too much time on lower-level criminals or non-criminals.”

"ICE has pulled a bait and switch, with local law enforcement spending more time and resources facilitating the deportations of bus boys and gardeners than murderers and rapists and at considerable cost to local community policing strategies, making us all less safe," said Peter Markowitz,”

Now if the search began with ‘booking records from local jails’ it’s fairly safe to say very close to 100% were booked on some sort of crime. So of those 47,000 deported (a drop in the bucket over 2 years) close to almost 100% where charged with a crime in addition to being here illegally.

To try and fit the two articles together is akin to jamming a square peg thru the round hole. IMO
