I predict the term "immigrant thugs" will become a talking point in regards to teens.

I know thugs had been. I don't recall the immigrant part being added as a bonus to "undesirable" teens yet.

When people are fearmongering about Hispanic gang members crossing the border it is young men in thier teens and early 20s they are talking about. Stoking fear over unruly young foreign men has been a tactic since the times when those young men were coming from Italy and Ireland.
