As they went through extreme vetting.

As a once-illegal-immigrant I feel like I have to chime in here.
I was brought here as a 13 year old and one thing my parents were deathly scared of doing or of having me do is break the law. We thought committing a crime would certainly get us sent back.
I believe (and am backed up by statistics) that the vast majority of immigrants feel the same way and therefore commit crimes at not just a lower rate, but an astoundingly lower rate than natural born citizens. Which means having immigrants lowers the average crime rate per capita.
