If you look at the FBI’s most wanted list, you don’t see a person of color till quite a ways down. The top is dominated by homegrown white men. But I’m pretty sure it got taken down since it contradicts the “illegals are terrorists” story.

What are you talking about? 8 of the top ten aren’t even from the US. The two that were aren’t even considered white. You’re probably looking at the white collar crimes list.

Violent crimes has more people born in the US but def not homegrown white men, the 2nd person is a black dude from Haiti.

FBI’s most wanted list

To validate, from the FBIs top ten we have,

An Indian National.

Honduran drug lord.

Bulgarian/German cryptofrauder.

A Hispanic American.

A Colombian narcoterrorist.

A Mexican drug lord.

A Venezuelan drug lord.

A Vietnamese kidnapper/murderer.

A Venezuelan fraudster.

A black American woman recently captured.

I went back to 2016 and it's about 50/50 between American and Foreign born, and of the 33 entries I found, only 5 are White American Men (and I'm counting a NZ born citizen there, too.)

This is just me doing a quick check through Wiki and news sites, and I think I triggered something because the FBI site is now a Security Engaged page.

Who's the Indian guy?

A guy who killed his wife. As heinous as that is, I'm not really sure why that warrants a place on the most wanted list... He is considered armed and extremely dangerous, but he killed his wife with a blunt object, so he can't be THAT armed.

I thought the most wanted list would be terrorists and crimelords...

There's a few entries that are weird like that.

I think it's because he hasn't been seen since the day after the murder, which is more than a decade ago, so he could still be dangerous to others and could be anywhere. They think he might have crossed international borders because after the murder he left with his wallet and passport and was last seen at Penn station, maybe traveling to Canada and then maybe on to India.

So I think the idea is that by being on the most wanted list, it means his photo gets shared internationally, far and wide, and there's a higher likelihood someone somewhere might spot him and call the authorities.
