In the news of "Gone but not forgotten !"

Tiger Woods is due before a Florida Judge on Sept 8 th, from his MV accident where Police charged him with DWI and various charges on March 27.

This entire kerfuffle could have been avoided if he had hired a driver March 26 Th or sooner........cheapskate !

Yes, another human caused fire, that got out of control because of dry conditions. I don’t think they said it was arson yet.

7.8 million acres burned so far this year, 168% of the 10 year average. Funny, you talked about small fires and Uncoach talked about how it was a below average fire year. As I’ve said, several of you guys seem unaware things are happening until it hits your backyard.


A current article has Iran at 70 % of potable water GAWN !

NOT from the air bombing, but politically connected industry.

Iran is rated the Fourth driest COUNTRY in the World !

Isreal is rated the SECOND driest COUNTRY in the World !

Thru desalinization plants the COUNTRY of Isreal has a surplus of potable WATER !

Murders....

DHS estimates 75 % of ALL murders committed in the USA are by Illegal immigrants.

Obumma deporting 3,000,000 and Trump 3,000,000 starts to add up for any reduction of criminal acts !

Big Will ... on no Earth are 75% of murders in the USA committed by illegal immigrants and there's zero chance that DHS believes this either. This is so obviously wrong it's kind of funny.

Btw there are studies on this kind of thing. Even if you are very generous and state that 5% of US residents are illegal (that would be 17M people illegally in the country), illegal immigrants committing a proportional share of homicides would mean that about 5% of homicides are committed by illegals.

The actual evidence from Texas in fact has illegal immigrants with a slightly lower homicide conviction rate than native born Americans.

Homicide Conviction Rate (per 100K people)

Native Born Americans - 2.8
Illegal Immigrants - 2.4
Legal Immigrants - 1.1

This would mean that illegals commit about 4.5% of US homicides yearly. So about 1 in 23 homicides or so. There are 13K homicides in the US yearly right now, I believe, so we are talking about 600-650 homicides committed by illegals

So you ARE SAYING disregard all ESTIMATES ?

FBI AND DHS ?

Just keeping you real.

You can provide us all proof this estimate exists.

Big Will ... the estimate does not exist. DHS and the FBI never generated such an estimate. Either you misread or misheard this, or just made it up.

We will address the estimate should it exist, however it doesn't.

The fact that you seem to actually think 75% of murders are committed by illegals might be the most insane thing posted in these chains, and there's been some wild stuff.

Your numbers are patently absurd! I don't think you got them directly from DHS, but from some RW nutjob online.

Correct, in no way, shape, or form did the Trump or any other Administration take this position. It would get so obviously crushed by everyone, including much of the friendly press.

It's not exactly uncommon knowledge that illegal immigrant crime rates aren't really high, Venezuelan gangsters apparently excepted.

Sad news. RIP, Dolly. Great entertainer. You can’t replace a legend like her, but I’m fairly certain Lainey Wilson will be the one people will look to filling her shoes.

Israel has no fresh water. They are a tiny country along salt water.

We have a ton of fresh water. We should continue to develop in areas with fresh water so we don’t HAVE to build expensive infrastructure in areas like California (hello corruption) to provide areas that constantly run at a net negative, when it comes to a basic need.
