		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;We find that the foreign-born, who make up about 35 percent of the adult population in California, constitute only about 17 percent of the adult prison population.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

vsatt is right; this is bait-and-switch B.S.

Try using a relevent metric:  what percentage of the foreign-born are &lt;em&gt;illegal aliens&lt;/em&gt; as opposed to legal residents, and in what proportion are they represented in the federal prison population?

&lt;blockquote&gt;Adult illegal aliens represented &lt;strong&gt;3.1 percent of the total adult population&lt;/strong&gt; of the country in 2003.1 By comparison, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fairus.org/site/PageServer?pagename=research_illegalsandcrime&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the illegal alien prison population represented a bit more than 4.5 percent of the overall prison population&lt;/a&gt;.  Therefore, deportable criminal aliens were more than half again as likely to be incarcerated as their share of the population.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And this is a conservative estimate.  There are studies that suggest that &lt;a href=&quot;http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2006/3/27/114208.shtml&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;illegal aliens comprise as much as 17 percent of the federal prison population&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>An inexcusable tragedy.

I can hear Juan Hernandez saying that illegals are good people only searching for a better life.  Can Mr. Hernandez, or any of our Presidential candidates for that matter, please explain to me if the lives of 4 American children are an acceptable sacrifice?</description>

		<description>It gets WORSE! Police had THREE chances to get her off the road and out of the country! And failed three times.

In 1996 - she had a no driver license violation.  No identification as an illegal alien.
(Bottom of page 4 of complaint):  &lt;a href=&quot;http://media.myfoxtwincities.com/pdfs/mn001.PDF&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://media.myfoxtwincities.com/pdfs/mn001.PDF
 &lt;/a&gt;
 
May, 2006 - she got a ticket and paid a $187 fine for driving (on a lawn!) without a license. Identity not verified, not deported.

 &lt;/a&gt;
 
January 2008,  was a passenger with boyfriend, driving a Plymouth Voyager,  who had only a learner&#039;s permit. She had no license.

Did the van have the same (illegal) license plate it had the next month??
 
 
A month later, in February, 2008 - driving the same van, kills 4 children.

The license plates on Morales’ (Plymouth Voyager) van were registered to a 1991 Chevrolet four-door sedan and were last registered with the state in May 2004, according the Department of Public Safety.

I am sending your post to the head moron at the National Republican Congressional Commitee (Chairman Cole)who keep asking me for money and ask him to forward your words to Bush. Broke my heart reading your post, not only for the families of the victims, but for our United States of America.</description>
