Unless he's saying something along the lines of "the police allowed a crime to take place because they weren't there to stop it and knew nothing about it, therefore crime is allowed"
Well if we are being pedantic are you saying that no illegal immigrant has ever been allowed to stay here either officially or unoffically? I think most people reading Sirius' comment will understand what was meant by it as I suspect you do. The fact that someone in that position may no longer be considered 'illegal' by the state doesn't alter the point that they entered the country illegally and have been allowed to stay either by having their legal status changed or simply due to the failure of the authorities to detect and remove them.
