Immigration report (pdf) says a whole lot of things about undocumented immigrants and crime. For instance:

A 2007 study by University of California, Irvine, sociologist Rubén G. Rumbaut, found that for every ethnic group, without exception, incarceration rates among young men are lowest for immigrants, even those who are the least educated. This holds true especially for the Mexicans, Salvadorans, and Guatemalans who make up the bulk of the undocumented population.”

The piece I mentioned this morning (Think Paul Harvey). I see a couple of mistakes in this review before reading it, but I’ll reserve judgment until I’ve read the book. Having read Misquoting Jesus, though – I’ll have to say that Ehrman (a one time favorite of mine) seems to be losing some of his academic credibility recently by getting into the confessional trenches. I’m sure there is some validity to Witherington’s critique.
