The defense sought the gag order after The Chronicle revealed that Ramos was an illegal immigrant who was found to have committed two felonies at age 17 - a gang-related assault of a Muni passenger and the attempted robbery of a pregnant woman - but was not surrendered by San Francisco juvenile justice authorities to federal officials for possible deportation.

Why is there no legal recourse for citizens who lose property and/or family to crime by illegals - when the illegal in question is a KNOWN criminal, yet the "authorities" do nothing, including turning them over to federal authorities (as is suppose to be the law).?

And at what point are citizens justified in taking the law into their own hands, as obviously the "authority" isn't doing its job.

I don’t know how to answer your first question, except to say there are several parents of alien murdered children who have sued various responsible entities recently. I suppose it will take years to find how they’ll come out. Generally, public officials are held free of any stupid policy making. Our elected officials have seen to that.

At what point are citizens justified in taking charge of their government? Every day since 1776. In the end, it is our fault, not the ‘leaders’. We keep putting them there.
