Isn't Contra Costa a separate country? Do we have some sort of extradition treaty with them? ;-)

Of the 119 people arrested, 18 were criminals, said Aitken, including people who had been convicted of possession of a controlled substance, possession of dangerous weapons, annoying and molesting children, disorderly conduct and driving under the influence with prior convictions.

"Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda are just a few of the cities in it."

Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda are in Alameda County. Contra Costa is over on the east side of the Berkeley Hills.

I live in Contra Costa County. The raids are primarily in Richmond and San Pablo, which are mostly low income cities with large Latino populations.

I am so VERY sorry that these raids make the "Latino community" nervous. Law abiding Latinos have nothing to worry about. Illegals do.

I am always amazed when liberals, like the ones quoted in the article, complain that police should not do their jobs because it may cause the "Latino community" to not "trust" the cops.

I don't give a crap whether they "trust" the cops or not.

If you're illegal - go home! Then you have nothing to fear.

"Just over half of those arrested were Mexican citizens, he said. The rest were from El Salvador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Honduras, Belize, India, the Philippines, Afghanistan, Fiji and Brazil. "

Tsk, tsk..so much for Homeland Security..

The Home Depot in El Cerrito/Richmond has a hundred or so day laborers loitering along it's borders on any given day .

wish they would come to la and santa barbara and take out the trash

[GOP Poet]

yeah, they could easily deport 119 a day from that areaa easily for a year and then there would be a dent and that would mainly be that like cockroaches they would scurry elsewhere. If we could get them all scurrying south of the border and lock the gat, well then that is my dream.
