A proposal put to the City Council on Friday would allow police to investigate the immigration status of gang members so those in the country illegally can be reported to federal authorities.
Councilman Dennis Zine's proposal comes about a month after a high school football player was fatally shot, allegedly by an illegal immigrant gang member who had just been released from jail.
Zine's motion would amend a Police Department policy that bars officers from asking people about their immigration status in many situations.
Advocates of the policy say the change would make immigrants fearful of police.

Oh yes,, muddy the water all you can.. Legal immigrants have nothing to fear.
That is of no consolation to the thousands of US citizens that have died at the hands of illegal immigrants, and that is using the word 'immigrant' in the loosest sense of the word. They are criminals, plain and simple.
What? This is absurd. The police being allowed to see if someone is a criminal or not? Why, such a violation of the RIGHTS OF ILLEGAL CRIMINALS in America -— wait until the Feds find out about this.
Los Angeles will have a new police chief -— after committing such a politcally incorrect move such as this. Just dispicable.
It's amazing how the most common sense things come under fire. Lord help us if try to rid cities of crime.
I suggest others do the same, first thing tomorrow morning.

Tell them to pass the motion before any more innocent people die!
Another mindless propaganda piece supporting criminals. I refuse to read the whole article.
Of course it will make ILLEGAL immigrants and criminals fearful of the police. That's the whole idea!
Legal immigrants have never had a thing to fear. Being one myself, I don't need agitprop or argument to know that.
More Americans killed by illegal aliens than Iraq war, study says
When you start digging into the numbers the only ones that can be sourced with the feds are the number of American murdered in 2005: 16692
I have seen federal numbers for illegals held in jail ranging from 19.3% to 27% of the federal prison population.
Here's a sampling of USA cities wanted for murder. What you'll see is that in big USA cities like LA or NYC most of the murderers are Hispanic. Unknown are the % of illegals. In smaller cities the FBI will post the nationalities of the murderers. About 25% of the most wanted are illegals wanted for murder. This number agrees with the percentage of illegals incarcerated in federal prisons. +-25%Pictures of top 10 most wanted in LA. Up until recent stories about crime in LA posted by the LA Times--the pictures included the nationality of the murderers. They were all foreign nationals and mostly Mexican.

Chicago wanted for Murder
Philadelphia wanted for murder
San Francisco wanted for Murder
New Orleans wanted for Murder
Pictures of suspects wanted for murder in Washington DC
FBI USA 10 most wanted. (two of 10 are Mexican nationals) Around 40% of the FBI's wanted for murder are Mexican Nationals
There are currently no exact numbers on the number of Americans killed by illegals. Part of the reason is that the government deliberately obscures the number. I talked on the phone with the head of statistics for the US Bureau of Prisons. He said his office wasn't allowed to publish the number of illegal alien murderers. Rather they were forced to put legal and non legal residents in the same category. I talked to ICE. They put out detailed numbers on illegal child molestors. However, they put out nothing on illegal murderers.
Part of the reason for the silence on the matter is that there is evidence to suggest that most Americans being killed by illegals are black--as is the suggestion in this LA Times Article. Also this article from the LA Times. And here. This makes intuitive sense. We see stories regularly of drug gang killings in Mexico but we don't see those same stories in the USA. The reason we don't see those stories is not because its not happening. Rather we don't see the stories about illegals killing blacks because that kind of story is terribly politically incorrect. The populations being displaced in downtown sanctuary cities especially are American blacks. That means that their criminal elements would be pushed aside by Mexican gangs as well. That's also the story that the wanted for murder posters in all the major cities seems to suggest.
Nevertheless, the pattern of non reporting is starting to break. Discovery Channel has a series called Gangland that mentions ethnic cleasing of blacks by Mexican gangs
Reported Foreign Nationals on Death Row in the U.S.

All that said the true number of criminal aliens is far higher than is revealed by criminal aliens in prisons. Most are simply waived through the courts.DHS Secretary Chertoff, has been quoted as warning that two million people in this country illegally have committed serious crimes. See also here and here
However the number of illegals on death row is far lower.
Judicial Watch is suing the LAPD over Special Order 40, seeking injunctive relief, and the trial is set for the end of June. Both federal and state law is on their side, so I give them a good shot at overturning that idiocy.
