You don't even understand what a margin of error is, do you? If you won't accept any sources at all, even the Justice Department, if they have even a 0.01% margin of error because it makes the numbers "not real," then I don't know what to tell you. Which of us is an idiot is pretty clear, go take a statistics class.

Lol you don't understand what a margin of error is.
Margin of error: an amount (usually small) that is allowed for in case of miscalculation or change of circumstances.
Sucks I literally have to post definitions for you to understand. Margin of error, although normally applies to something small, can mean ANY margin.
If you went to statistics class, you'd know there is a mean. The mean refers to an average. If the FBI reports 5,000. Immigration office reports 12,000 and someone else reports 7,000. You take the mean.
When the FBI reports it's close to 10,000 in 2009 and you use that as a source. Then there is a more recent source from the FBI from 2015 that says "we actually don't know the real number." That is a margin of error that was adjusted but it could be almost any number (more than 10,000 or less than 10,000). Jesus, you are dumb.
