Finally! I'm glad -someone- (california, no less) is doing something. Some interesting things in this article...

"Yaroslavsky expressed concern that jail officials would refer inmates to federal custody before they were tried and convicted. After introducing an amendment that would allow the Sheriff's Department to refer only illegal immigrants convicted of crimes..."

Isn't illegal immigration a crime? Hmm....

And another:

" One speaker at Tuesday's board meeting said she was an undocumented immigrant who had been a victim of spousal abuse for 11 years. "If this policy was in place," she said later, "I would have never contacted the police no matter how much abuse there was because I would be afraid that my immigration status would be at issue." "

Boo hoo. My heart cries for the poor illegals. And they ARENT undocumented. They're illegals.

Was she immediately arrested for breaking US law and deported?
