I will not take the full time. However. since the gentleman has brought up this subject. it requires me to say a couple of words about the problem at INS. One of the problems at INS last year. when we discovered that INS had granted naturalization of citizenship to a millionthree. which is four times the annual historic amount. we then discovered that they had waived the policy. the then policy of the department on requiring an FBI criminal check before a person becomes a citizen. We had always done that in every case. Last year. for whatever reason. before the election the administration waived that. did not require it. Now we have discovered tens of thousands of people were naturalized who were felons. criminals. walking the streets of our country. We found out also that on those that they did require a background check. including a fingerprint. that INS had contracted out the fingerprinting process. So that one could go to any one of 3.000 different places to get fingerprints made. supposedly. which would then submit that fingerprint to the INS. the FBI for checking to see if someone did have a criminal record.
Identified stereotypes
Generalizing that naturalized citizens are felons and criminals.
