But even this administration. when they want to send them back. the few that they do. doesnt push hard on those other countries to take them back. Now. every country in the world that refuses to take their illegals back. we have the leverage to convince them. I believe. to take those illegal aliens back. 850.000 of them. I didnt divide that out. but it is roughly 1 in 12 of the illegal aliens in America have already been adjudicated for deportation. but they dont go. and we dont do anything about it. Here is another statistic. For every 10 Americans detained in Federal courtthats Americans173 illegal aliens are detained by a Federal court. So I dont know why they gave me 10 of 173. but I can divide that out in my head. Federal court deals with 17.3 illegal aliens for each Americanthat would be an American. lawful. permanent resident or an American citizen that they deal with. That is a high. high volume of illegal aliens going through our Federal court system. Here is another piece of data that emerged from a study that I requested in 2005. This was a GAO study that shows that 27 percent of our Federal prison population is criminal aliens27 percent. So more than a fourth of the inmates that are housed in Federal penitentiaries are criminal aliens. That is a huge percentage. If you would think that they are in there for immigration crimes. for overstaying their visa. or for crossing the border. no. That is highly. highly unlikely that they are incarcerated for what this administration would call minimal offenses. They are in there for other things. Here is another example. The illegal aliens represent 5 percent of the population. 27 percent of the Federal prison population. and presumably 27 percent of the Federal crimes that are committed as well. So that is a proportion of more than five times their representation in the population they are represented in prison and they are represented by the crimes that are committed. Now. we should not think that these are just data.
