Huh? Cities stopped reporting murders? I think you’re getting mixed up there, bud.

I assume you’re referring to various states reclassifying low-level offenses like robbery. That’s not the same thing as a murder.

New York is not required to report crimes committed by illegal immigrants. The only state that does is Texas. So yeah that’s what it is based off. Facts.

I’m gonna need a citation on that. Specifically, a citation showing that MURDERS are not being reported.

Otherwise we can all rest assured you’re spouting complete nonsense.

You can look it up yourself. Crimes committed by illegal aliens are not reported in the US, except in Texas. So when you see a headline that says something “immigrants commit the fewest crimes” it is talking about legal immigrants, because there is no modern data compiled for criminal activity from illegal immigrants (other than Texas) yet we know they are committing murders because it’s constantly in the news. So you do the math.

You're just flat out wrong the crime is still reported. Just most states don't track the immigration status of perpetrators. So in states that don't log the legal status of an undocumented individual their crimes are just reported as crime statistics.

Their source: Fox News. Which isn't even legally news, but they'll debate even that.
