In the latest development that is certain to raise the heat under Merkel's cabinet and may lead to even higher support for Germany's anti-immigrant AfD party, Reuters reports that migrants in Germany committed or tried to commit some 69,000 crimes in the first quarter of 2016, according to a police report "that could raise unease, especially among anti-immigrant groups, about Chancellor Angela Merkel's liberal migrant policy."
The report from the BKA federal police showed that migrants from northern Africa, Georgia and Serbia were disproportionately represented among the suspects.

Because it is the smart thing to do.

It's not Muslims it's people from that area of the world.
That's what happens when you take a million people from an educated third world country that believes in Sharia law and mix them in with a western culture in the first world.
They don't know how to act.
LAHORE, Pakistan (AP) — A woman in Pakistan burned her 17-year-old daughter alive on Wednesday to punish her for marrying against the family's wishes, the latest in a series of so-called "honor killings" that claim the lives of nearly 1,000 women every year in the conservative Muslim country.
Police say Zeenat Rafiq's mother, Parveen, tied her to a cot and drenched her with kerosene before lighting her on fire. Neighbors in the congested, working-class neighborhood in the eastern city of Lahore came running when they heard the screams, but family members kept them from entering the house, said Nighat Bibi, who lives nearby.

Check yourself out first.
My OP vs your response.
Puhhhlease.
I double dog dare you to respond to my entire OP with your sources and information as a counter.
Donald Trump and Ted Cruz say they’d deport all of the 11.3 million or so undocumented immigrants living in the U.S. They don’t say how they would pull off this forced human exodus. But new research shows that executing on this promise would require at least $400 billion in new federal spending and reduce U.S. GDP by about $1 trillion.
The most important cost, however, would be the blow to the economy from disrupting such a huge chunk of the American workforce. About eight million undocumented immigrants are employed in some way, and the report estimates that deporting them all in two years would shrink the U.S. labor force by 6.4%. That’s a lot of suddenly unfilled jobs. The report estimates that GDP would shrink by 5.7%, not far from the 6.3% decline from the 2008 recession. The new Administration would certainly be off to a rip-roaring start.

Hmmm well.
This is a double edge sword. If we reward criminal behavior what's the intensive for it to stop?
There's millions of American out of the workforce. If we end illegal immigration it will remove supply from a workforce increasing demand increasing wage's and corporations will have to actually offer a wage that American's are willing to work for.
As far as deportation. Let's do it incrementally. Not in a massive military style removal but state by state. One at a time. Fining companies and implementing E-verify. Illegals found to be stealing identities will be I don't know... jailed or fined whatever an American would have to pay or whatever punishment they would undergo for a similar crime and then deported.
Can't reward criminal behavior.
