A veteran Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent is facing suspension after he refused to release an illegal immigrant who was not considered a priority target under the Obama Administration’s new immigration enforcement policies, according to documents provided exclusively to Fox News.“They’re punishing law enforcement officers who are just trying to uphold U.S. law,” said Chris Crane, president of the National ICE Council. Crane is a union representative acting on the unidentified officer’s behalf.
The officer under fire is an 18-year law enforcement and military veteran.
On March 27 he and another officer were conducting surveillance on a vehicle in Newark, Del. with plates that were registered to a criminal alien target. During the surveillance, they observed an individual get into the vehicle. The person was detained, questioned and taken to an ICE office so that his fingerprints could be run through a federal database.

Maybe I should figure out how to become an illegal alien. Oh what fun I could have breaking laws with impunity, knowing the law couldn’t touch me. As a bonus, I could get all of the free welfare and healthcare that I desire. Doesn’t sound like a bad gig at all. Brush up on my spanglish perhaps?
“And it’s not the first time that ICE agents have found themselves frustrated by Obama’s new policy. Last month an illegal immigrant injured an officer during an attempted escape in El Paso. Assaulting a federal officer is considered a federal crime. However, because the suspect was not a priority target, he was released without any criminal or immigration charges.”
YOU try this...one time.
Out with the old (ICE agents) and in with the new (indoctrinated ICE agents).. Same thing’s happening in our military and every other sector of our society.
Every single day for the past three and a half years, this Liar in Thief has instituted changes that have caused our country to teeter on the edge of bankruptcy. It is on his watch that the illegal aliens are going free.
WHY DON’T THEY TRY TO CHANGE THE LAW THEN???
A study released by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) estimates that illegal immigration now costs federal and local taxpayers $113 billion a year. The report, The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on U.S. Taxpayers, is the most comprehensive analysis of how much the estimated 13 million illegal aliens and their U.S.-born children cost the federal, state and local governments.
The cost estimates are based on an extensive analysis of federal, state and local spending data. The Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on U.S. Taxpayers examines dozens of government programs that are available to illegal aliens and their U.S.-born children, both legally and fraudulently. The report provides detailed analysis of the impact of illegal immigration on education, health care, law enforcement and justice, public assistance, and other government programs.

This is simply one drop in obama’s ocean of destruction. This election worries me more than I can, (or dare,) express.
Yes it will. I agree we’re already in a cold civil war that just hasn’t turned hot YET.
We were told to follow orders unless the orders given us violated the law. By ordering the officers not to detain known violators is against the law, and this officer should not have been suspended. Hopefully the union will provide him with legal representation that will end this farce.
