Not if they're here legally.
Sanctuary cities are against federal law. The problem is that the feds are not enforcing the laws.
>the measure would “hurt and endanger” Latino communities.
If people want Latino communities then they need to go to Latin America. In the United States of America we have
American communities. Is it really that hard to understand? Assimilate or gtfo of America.
Go to any of the other countries and try to create an American community that conspires to allow illegal aliens and see just how “endangered” you will become.
Two dozen protested?
Wow, according to the State-Controlled Media, that’s more than 8/28/10 at the Glenn Beck rally!
Ping!
IMO, this is part of the problem. Large areas of Houston are unrecognizable as American cities.
A subculture within our borders, poverty stricken, Latino gangs roaming the night, most signs / advertising in Spanish, crime rates inproportionatly high...seriously now.
I walked into a Brookshire Brothers supermarket on Houston's southeast side, I couldn't believe my eyes. Try it sometime, it'll alarm the hell into ya.
These people could care less about being American, they do not care to learn English, nor do they care to assimilate into our society.
Latino communities??? Yeah, nice!
“”We cannot afford this type of divisive legislation and the resulting long-term unsustainable costs to our state and our communities,” the Senate Democrats, including Sen. Wendy Davis of Fort Worth, said”
And giving taxpayer money to welfare frauds isn’t divisive?
Sheltering murderers and gangbangers isn’t divisive?
Favoring invaders over Americans isn’t divisive?
How do slimey pigs like this get elected? Some parts of America need to be declared in insurrection and all federal voting privileges taken away until those voters can demonstrate sanity.
This was the same bogus headline used by the Houston Comical.
The Democrats are NOT against Sanctuary Cities. They are FOR them. They are against this bill that opposes sanctuary cities and attempts to prevent police officers from acting on knowledge that someone is in this country illegally.
I’ve seen it firsthand where police officers pull over a non-US hispanic driver, ready to ticket him for speeding, running a red light, etc. and getting ready to ream him even with the prospect of being DWI only to cut him loose without so much as even a warning because they CANNOT ask if the person (say from Spain or Mexico) is legally here. They don’t want to prosecute the illegals so even the legal visitors get off without charge.
