Sorry Notch, on some stuff I agree with you, however as I recently touched on in another thread, for me the % of crime they commit is almost an irrelevance.
The core fact remains. We need to stop the boats. We need to have a genuinely robust immigration system that doesn't simply rubber stamp most of these people to reduce the backlog and make the figures look good.
Do we want immigration? Of course. But what we need is genuine people, coming in via approved routes, that can contribute to our society, not be a drain on it.
I will however caveat my post by saying people who think migrants are the main issue when it comes to crime are, quite frankly, narrow-minded and/or bigoted and/or thick.
