Remember when Obama said this?
"DREAMers are ‘Americans, just like us’. “I don’t think there is anybody in America who had a chance to talk to these six young people – or the DREAMers all across the country – who wouldn’t find it in their heart to say these kids are Americans just like us and they belong here..”
Or this?
“To target hopeful young strivers who grew up here is wrong, because they’ve done nothing wrong...”
Or this?
"These are young people who study in our schools, they play in our neighborhoods, they’re friends with our kids, they pledge allegiance to our flag..."
Well apparently, he was wrong. Many of them aren't the harmless little children he was making them out to be. Go figure.
"With the question of the constitutionality of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program before the Supreme Court, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has released a study showing that nearly 80,000 DACA recipients have arrest records ranging from immigration violations to rape and murder...
...The report finds that of the nearly 889,000 applicants for the DACA program, 110,000 had arrest records. Of the more than 765,000 approved for DACA, 79,398 had arrest records. Of that number, 67,861 were arrested before their most recent DACA approval, while 15,903 were arrested after their most recent approval.
The offenses incurred by DACA requestors who were arrested before their most recent approval include battery (3,421), assault (3,308), burglary, breaking and entering (1,471), rape (62), murder (15) and theft or larceny (7,926). The largest population arrested were suspected of driving-related offenses excluding DUIs (23,305) and immigration-related offenses (12,968.)"
