As Trump shuts out migrants, Spain opens its doors and fuels economic growth
Both of these cite the same phony one year study done in one area of Texas. From your link: "The illegal immigrant criminal conviction rate was 45 percent below that of native-born Americans in Texas." First, it is only comparing the illegal aliens to native-born Americans in Texas, not in the US. Why is this not a big red flag to any thinking individual? It is worth noting that illegal aliens: Are harder to find than citizens Have less ties to a community and can relocate easily Can run back across the border to avoid conviction. To be clear, there is no shortage of articles written by leftists claiming that illegal immigrants commit less crime than citizens, but there are no comprehensive studies that support that. Again: Fact: Only crimes that are reported are investigated. Fact: Only crimes that are investigated may result in having a suspect. Fact: Only crimes that have suspects with strong cases against them are prosecuted. Fact: Only suspects with strong cases against them are prosecuted. Fact: Only suspects that are prosecuted may result in a conviction. Fact: Only suspects that are conviction are counted in crime statistics. Fact: Sanctuary cities generally do not provide immigration status to FBI. -

Crime Elderly Thai Man Confesses to Fatal Shooting of Troubled Grandson
Photo via Facebook/ หนังสือพิมพ์รายวัน.สยามประชา In the heart of Nong Bua Lamphu, an 80-year-old man has surrendered to police after a tragic family altercation led to the death of his grandson. The incident took place in the Khao Kloi sub-district, where Poon, the grandfather, confessed to shooting 30-year-old Mongkhon during a heated encounter in a paddy field. Mongkhon, who police report had a history of drug issues, arrived at the field under the influence, displaying aggressive behaviour. As details emerged, it was revealed that Mongkhon, clad only in white shorts, carried a knife and threatened Poon, escalating the situation to a dangerous level. Poon stated he was spraying fertiliser when the encounter turned violent, prompting him to defend himself. During the altercation, Poon initially fired warning shots, hoping to deter his grandson. When Mongkhon persisted with knife in hand, Poon, overwhelmed and fearful, shot at Mongkhon's leg. However, as Mongkhon continued his advance, Poon fired two more shots, tragically ending his grandson's life. With tears, Poon recounted the history of threats from Mongkhon, shared by local villagers who arrived at the station to support him. Many in the community had experienced Mongkhon's erratic and menacing behaviour, painting a picture of an ongoing struggle within the family and the broader community. Police are still deliberating on possible charges as the legal process unfolds, weighing the circumstances against the evidence presented. The small, rural community now grapples with the aftermath of the incident, highlighting the broader issues of substance addiction and family strife. This tragic event lays bare the complex layers of family dynamics under duress, pushing the community and authorities to consider deeper interventions for families dealing with similar crises.

Report Activists Accuse Thai PM Paetongtarn of Crimes Punishable by Death
Have not seen the transcript of her conversation, but one has the impression that she was asking to know Cambodia's demands for settling the dispute. You have to have a clear understanding of the other side's position in order to know how to negotiate a compromise acceptable to both sides. Of course ultra-nationalists on both sides are going to want no compromise but instead a bloodbath (in which they will likely not be involved, but might feel redemption of an imaginary slight to their honour). Undoubtedly it would be undiplomatic if in the circumstances she criticized a subordinate, the 2nd Army commander. But most likely she had no say in either his appointment nor his actions, and anyway he probably does not consider himself her subordinate. In some countries the military is a law unto itself, which can complicate government. -
