ICE is insignificant compared to overall crime rates. The blue states have lower crime rates no matter how you slice it.

I'm through giving Republicans the benefit of the doubt. They're not anti-crime at all; they're just racist, that's all there is to them.

I was mostly being facetious. My point was that the overall crime rates are enough lower in blue states that ICE makes a disproportionate difference. Also, fuck ICE.
