Comparing the two groups to one another serves no purpose except to obfuscate the issue of illegals being able to shield themselves from prosecution for lengthy periods by asserting false claims for asylum.

Well, it serves the purpose of pointing out that illegals are no more likely to commit any future crimes than anyone else. So talking about them as if they were more inclined to criminal behavior going forward (whether using the label "predator" or talking about them as a public safety issue in the first place) is going to lead to poor public policy decisions.

It's also worth pointing out that filing for asylum (whether a "false claim" or not) does not shield you from prosecution for any crime. Not even the crime of illegal entry, if you've committed it. It only means that you can't be deported until your asylum claim is disposed of, but you can be prosecuted for any crime you've committed.
