While San Francisco is taking heat because of its status as a “sanctuary city” that allowed the release of a serial deportee who has been charged with homicide, such noncompliance policies abound in the Bay Area and throughout the state.

When Jerry Brown signed the Trust Act in 2013 California became a Sanctuary State.
Isn;t Austin Texas considered by many to be a sanctuary city.
Weird how the Federal clown courts forbid Arizona from ENFORCING immigration laws but didn’t say anything when the bozos in San Fernasco decided NOT TO OBEY THE FEDERAL LAWS.
As far as I know you are right, so is Houston from the Lizzy Lesbo mayor.
Yup. Politics over policy. That is what Liberals do best.
Wonder what might happen if states selectively didn’t enforce Federal mandated laws that they disagreed with such as the Gay marriage amendment? The Feds would come down hard. However, they look the other way, when immigration laws are not enforced.
Good point.
Everyday Americans have been getting slaughtered by illegals for years and the media refused to see it.
Now one certain case of the death of a woman in a ultra liberal city gets the attention of the media and something must be done about this crisis.
It seems that the government answers to the media instead of the people.
If I were a family member of the young lady that was killed, I'd be pounding on the desks of the politicians who made the decision to look the other way. I'd be demanding real answers, all they way up to the POTUS.
Unfortunately, the family of the girl looked dazed and confused and are likely Liberals if they live in San Fran.
I realize that sanctuary city status is made

federal laws. Can conservative jurisdictions play
the sanctuary game? Are there issues dear to

I would love to see how the feds handle that.
What the feds did regarding Arizona might be
a clue.
