The Crime Associated with the Immigration Act of 1965

Criminal activities in the U.S. run by Third World natives can be traced back to the Immigration Act of 1965 and failure to control illegal immi-gration. The social effects of the 1965 Act were not felt immediately. Only after a 'critical mass' of foreign colonists arrived here, did law enforcement agencies begin to learn about the presence of criminal elements among the new immigrants. As U.S. News & World Report conceded, 'it is startling the degree to which the clout of newer ethnic gangs is reflective of immigration trends.'
