Less Than 14% of ICE Arrests Had Violent Criminal Records

Less than 14% of nearly 400,000 immigrants arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in President Trump's first year back in the White House had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses, according to an internal Department of Homeland Security document obtained by CBS News.

"Violent criminals" account for fewer than 10% of ICE arrests, but veterans of the US uniformed services are specifically targeted.

More: Nearly 40% of all of those arrested by ICE in Mr. Trump's first year back in office did not have any criminal record at all, and were only accused of civil immigration offenses, such as living in the U.S. illegally or overstaying their permission to be in the country, the DHS document shows. Those alleged violations of U.S. immigration law are typically adjudicated by Justice Department immigration judges in civil " not criminal " proceedings.

That's because they lied about the violent immigrants, created a boogeyman that didn't exist to get into the position to ethnically cleanse the US.

So when you add those in, what's the percentage, is it up to 17% yet?

Perhaps you don't understand what violence is.
Do you believe embezzlement is a violent act?
Do you believe solicitation of a minor is a violent act?
