Wrong!!!!
James and his gullible friends fail to recognize deliberately manipulated statistical models designed to deceive the public. By cleverly including lawful immigrants with illegal immigrants in their samples activists are able to fool media outlets into disseminating their propaganda. 

It is true that lawful immigrants, who are carefully screened for criminal backgrounds and skills necessary to become productive self-supporting members of society, have a substantially lower crime rate than the common rabble in American cities. However conflating this law-abiding population with those who have disregarded our laws, used bogus documentation, engaged in identity theft etc. to arrive at the erroneous conclusion that illegal immigrants have a lower crime rate is a non sequitur.
