Joe Scarborough: Sanctuary City Advocates 'Have All The Best Intentions'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Pathetic. Weak. Intimidated.

Discussing the shooting of a federal LE officer by an illegal alien, the guest was a senior NYC police official, John Chell. He gave off the vibes of a traditional cop. But after years of immersion in New York's liberal politics, and likely haunted by the specter of an imminent Mayor Mamdani, Chell chickened out.

Instead of stating the obvious — that sanctuary city laws need to be utterly abolished — Chell suggested that they merely require "thoughtful change."

Translation of Chell's mealy-mouthed proposal for "thoughtful change": Keep sanctuary city laws on the books for the great majority of illegal immigrants. Make an exception for the "small minority" who commit crimes in addition to their original crime of entering the country illegally. And even create a "path"-- presumably to citizenship -- for the great majority of illegals!

The pusillanimous Scarborough agreed with Chell's prescription. Whereas the careerist cop was seeking to appease New York's liberal powers-that-be, Scarborough was kowtowing to his liberal viewers and network suits:

"You've been very careful to explain. You understand the purpose behind sanctuary cities, and you understand that it's motivated by people with all of the best intentions . . . Again, it's a minority of those that have come to this country illegally, but still the inability to be able to lock them up because of the sanctuary city status. You say that's the real problem here."

Lord, every murderous psychopath in history was convinced of his own best intentions. As if that excuses rank stupidity and worse.

They CLAIM they do.

It’s just gaslighting because anyone can see the results of illegal immigration and it’s never good.

The leaders are commies, and the followers may include stupid white leftist tools that may have the best intentions; but mostly they are damn communist scum.
