technocritTrump's immigration raids are largely catching noncriminals. Fox's coverage suggests the opposite.
It's not suggesting the opposite, it's just using a different definition of criminal.
When you say "criminal," you're referring to someone who has committed and/or been convicted of committing a crime. When Fox News uses the word, they mean people with skin that's more than 1.5 shades darker than Hulk Hogan's.
They pull the typical “ackschualllly” thing too and say “they’re all criminals, they came here illegally!”
Kinda depends. Having crossed the border without authorization? Criminal offense. BUT, it seems when one is caught in the act, that’s only a civil offense. Overstaying your visa and the like? Civil offense.
Legal stuff from the ACLU. Take that with a grain of salt, seem like old data.
My immigrant wife was under the impression that they were only deporting “bad guys”. I didn’t want to scare the shit out of her, but I pointed out that over 70% have no criminal record, and some have been straight up citizens. White people too! The horror.
