Sure you could sue them, but they would crush you like a bug. Gov’t can pick and choose which laws to enforce, but we can’t pick which laws to obey.

Good luck with that.

The goverment can break its own laws with impunity, but heaven help the man that carries a pocket-knife with a blade longer than 3 inches. Or is it two and a half inches? I forget.

All I know is that if I’m ever injured by an illegal, I’m suing anyone who employs them, rents to them, or anyone else I can find who has aided them in continuing to break the law by being here.

The answer is — you can sue anyone of anything. However, the Chevron case is a case that tuned America into a state at the mercy of the administrative elites. Under Chevron, agencies have almost completely unquestionable discretion under the law to enforce the laws charged to them by Congress. Chevron assumes that agency expertise trumps second guessing. So, as long as agencies don't decline to to enforce the law completely (which they have), but instead argue that they prioritize limited resources, they are beyond the reach of any suit that alleges a failure to enforce the laws.

Look at how the Feds are treating Sheriff Arpario over in Arizona. That is a perfect example of how the Holder Government would respond to a citizen that confronted the Feds for not upholding the law.

The government must allow you to sue it. It is called “sovereign immunity”.

[PoloSec]

No only illegal aliens can sue the government.

Only illegals can sue American citizens and organizations.

To be the other way around, would be racist and not politically correct.

just a little, teeny tiny, itybity, sense of /s

Better yet, sue the landlord and employer who knowingly harbored a known criminal (illegal)>

Are we talking about 0bama here?

Whenever an illegal alien kills someone in a drunk driving accident or something similar, here’s what I recommend:
What can we do about it? Here’s my standard post.

RICO —Citizen Recourse

Private persons and entities may initiate civil suits to obtain injunctions and treble damages against enterprises that conspire to or actually violate federal alien smuggling, harboring, or document fraud statutes, under the Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO). The pattern of racketeering activity is defined as commission of two or more of the listed crimes. A RICO enterprise can be any individual legal entity, or a group of individuals who are not a legal entity but are associated in fact, and can include nonprofit associations.

Here’s what I’ve been pushing: it’s time to file Racketeering, Influencing, and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) lawsuits.

RICO lawyers could turn it around in a few years and MAKE MONEY at the same time. I’m surprised they haven’t done it already.

In the absence of enforcement, we can get the word out in the meantime that there is money to be made in filing RICO lawsuits against employers who hire illegal aliens like this jerk.

Employers would have no trouble shutting down the border if they could get sued by someone under the RICO statutes for hiring these people in the first place. The next time an illegal alien kills someone in a drunk driving accident or somesuch thing, I’m going to point out that the victim’s family might be able to seek compensation from the employer under these statutes in the hopes that it would catch on. If this did catch on, would see such a swift backlash against illegal immigration that no employer would go near these people and they’ll all simply want to go back home.
