Quote:Obama Admin Released Thousands Of Convicted Immigrants
A new study of Immigration and Customs Enforcement data reveals that the Obama administration has been releasing tens of thousands of convicted aliens back into society. They aren’t even trying to deport them, they’re just letting them go.
The Daily Caller has the details:
A Center for Immigration study to be released Monday and obtained in advance by The Daily Caller
, found that last year ICE reported nearly 722,000 encounters with illegal or criminal immigrants. But ICE officers filed immigration charges against less than 195,000 aliens.
“According to ICE personnel, the vast gap between the number of encounters reported and the number of aliens put on the path to removal exists because officers are not permitted to file charges against aliens who do not fall into the administration’s narrowly defined criteria for enforcement, regardless of the criminal charges or the circumstances in which the alien was identified,” the report, authored by CIS director of policy studies Jessica Vaughan, reads.
Since June 2011, when the first of the Obama administration’s “prosecutorial discretion” policies were put in place, the report adds, interior ICE arrests have declined by 40 percent.
The administration is trying to make it look like deportations have increased, but they’re fudging the numbers by counting those who have been detained while trying to cross the border.

It is obvious that this administration wants more criminals out and about or the numbers wouldn't be what they are. And it gives them the chance to yell racist, bigot and xenophobe if anyone protests.
