Let's be logical. A family lives in an area with 10 rapists in a one-mile radius--five undocumented immigrants, five native-born Americans. The crime was not "preventable" because there are other rapists.
Candidate Trump played on scapegoating and fears. To his discredit, he created millions of xenophobes convinced they will not be safe unless we deport every immigrant we can find. I do not blame these misled people. They were manipulated by someone who knows little about governing, but quite a bit about media.
It is a terrible thing to create racists out of basically good frightened people through manipulating the stats and their emotions.
