don't american citizens commit more crime in america than immigrants? seems like that would be more eyes to look into.
The title of this thread should be "Hammerfest overstates Cruz's impact and importance for dramatic effect today"

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) interrogated the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement director in a contentious exchange during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on immigration policy on Tuesday.
One particularly interesting back-and-forth occurred when ICE Director Sarah Saldana disputed Cruz’s assertion that the Obama administration released 104,000 “criminal illegal aliens.”
“When I asked you how many criminals ICE released in 2013, you were off by a factor of three,” Cruz said. “You said 30,000 — the correct answer is 104,000.
Saldana argued she thought she was asked about 2014 and claimed the number was actually 30,558 released illegal aliens that were not prosecuted. The “good news is,” she continued, “at least that went down from 2013.”
“But you’re omitting the 68,000 criminal illegal aliens that ICE did not begin deportation proceedings against at all,” Cruz shot back. “You’ve got to add both of those together — it’s over 100,000.”
Saldana then admitted, “Yes sir, that’s absolutely right.”
She added, “All done pursuant to this statute that Congress has outlined.”
"In today’s America, conservatives who actually want to conserve are as rare as liberals who actually want to liberate. The once-significant language of an earlier era has had the meaning sucked right out of it, the better to serve as camouflage for a kleptocratic feeding frenzy in which both establishment parties participate with equal abandon" (Taking a break from the criminal, incompetent liars at the NSA, to bring you the above political observation, from The Archdruid Report.)
which victims eyes am i looking into because someone walked across the border? fairly obvious what Cruz and other republican candidates are getting at. they've even said it explicitly. they're painting immigrants as rapists, murderers, etc... hence "eyes of victims".
they especially want white voters to be afraid that a brown guy is gonna cross the border, steal their stuff, rape them, and then kill them.
or does he really mean jaywalking? not paying the meter? throwing a coffee cup out of the window? the "crime" of crossing the border is not what Cruz or any of the rest is talking about.
