OAKLAND -- Oakland city officials today announced two new resolutions condemning recent federal immigration raids and formalizing the city's intention not to cooperate with the U.S. government effort to deport undocumented residents.
The resolutions, one by Mayor Ron Dellums and the other by Council President Ignacio De La Fuente, both condemn the recent raids, which included one on Friday at an East Oakland manufacturer.
Both resolutions are also an effort to update Oakland's 1986 "City of Refuge" ordinance which only applies to refugees fleeing political violence in Haiti, El Salvador, Nicaragua and South Africa, De La Fuente said.

I hope you didn’t take my statement seriously, I just hate the idea of this great country being overrun by those who have no standards nor want any standards for living. No maliciousness intended, just some sick humor. Lord know we have our fair share here in Northern Colorado. The east side of my town, Greeley, looks like a suburb in Mexico.
No, I really didn't. It's just when I think of having even more of these illegal alien parasites feeding off of our country, my blood starts to boil.
I think most Americans are coming to the same conclusion as they see that this invasion isn't only in the southwest anymore.
It has been estimated that there might be up to 20 million of them, and we are forced to support those numbers.
The upcoming amnesty vote will show which of our "leaders" are real Americans, and the ones in both parties who aren't will stand out like sore thumbs. They are the sellouts.
I live in CO and agree. These spaghetti spined weenies we keep sending to “represent” us are only dooming us. The four corners area is ony a staging area for the upcoming “reconquista” of the Western USA. What were our Grandfathers and Fathers fighting for? What are us current soldiers fighting for?
