HICAGO (CBS) — Even as President-elect Donald Trump vows to immediately deport 2 to 3 million undocumented immigrants when he takes office in January, Mayor Rahm Emanuel is reaffirming Chicago’s commitment as a so-called “sanctuary city.”
“To be clear about what Chicago is, it always will be a sanctuary city,” the mayor said Monday.

YUP. And, unfortunately, the crime syndicates have so much to lose they may start a war to prevent enforcement. However, if Congress will pass e-Verify, that will help us enormously. We've had it in Missouri for 10-12 years and have far fewer problems than many other states.
Stupid “veteran” reporter. Says there are two protest groups and he can’t find out who they are.
It’s the Chicago Way. Practice incompetence in every profession, every day.
E=MANUEL won’t be the permanent Mayor of Chicago. He is doing a severe disservice to the citizens of Chicago to make this statement.
MS-13 loves such remarks, but Chicago cannot even pay for snowplowing without Federal Funds.
He is blowing smoke up the skirts of Chicago residents. Period.
Any decent person living in Chicago wants to violence to end. Remove & deport the ones we can & incarcerate the rest. NO PLEA BARGAINS....
It already is a killing field....
Californians have been driven out of their neighborhoods and even the state due to the pressure of millions of illegal aliens, allowed to take over thanks to politicians who have refused to enforce the law.””
I moved to So Calif in March of 1964. I moved out in May 1993. I owned my own home & was gainfully employed. BUT—I no longer felt safe commuting or going shopping or going to dinner with friends. IF we went to dinner-less than a mile from my home—we went in daylight & after dark, we got one of the restaurant bouncers to escort us to our cars. Kept dog in car when inside eating.
But the continuing influx of illegal invaders finally got to me. I have many stories to tell about how threatening they can be-—even at a stoplight when they swarm your car looking for day work for cash. Even Home Depot put up ‘shelters’ in the middle of their parking lots. Stopped me from going to Home Depot. Keep luring the bastards in with more amenities, and they will keep coming stronger.
I moved to Nevada County in N Calif & was very happy there. Was the best house & property I have ever had. 2553 sq ft LOG house on 5 acres with a creek. BUT—the Liberals from the Bay Area discovered the western Sierra Nevada foothills & suddenly, it seems they were running moving van caravans to come into Nevada County. I lived rural & new ‘neighbors’ were demanding sidewalks, street lights everywhere & no more livestock. Nevada County is a Right To Farm county-—but they kept up the bleating until I finally pulled the plug. One ‘retired Professor” even went to the Supervisors meeting & demanded that ‘ALL THE WILD ANIMALS BE ROUNDED UP OR SHOT”. HE moved into their territory-—they weren’t about to go anywhere. I had bear, deer, skunks, and even a mountain lion at various times on my property, but never had any damage to the 6 horses. Now, my old neighbors are leaving for many of the same reasons, but the incursion of marijuana being grown in every former pasture keeps the odor in the air day & night.
The surrounding hills & forests are full of cartel marijuana grows & we could no longer ride there. Some riders got shot at. I did one ride further north near the Eel River & as we were on the upper trails going over ridges, I saw black irrigation tubing alongside therail. I asked my partner rider to look carefully, without stopping, to see if I was right. She saw the same thing. Literally miles of drip irrigation, etc, alongside the trail. We kept moving & noted with the officials at the end of he day where we saw the irrigation tubing. But we were too scared to stop & look closer at it. That was in the Lassen National Forest.
California is inundated with cartel growers in the National Forests & the Feds are spending time & money going after Cliven Bundy instead. IF many of those in the cities knew how bad it is, they would burn down Washington.
Excellent post. Please do tell more about what you remember of how the invasion of illegal aliens drove you out of SoCal, people need to hear it.
I moved here two years after you did, so we witnessed the same unnecessary destruction. I’m still living with it, family obligations require me to remain here. I’m curious to know what part of SoCal you were in, your description sounds a lot like north OC. But the same destruction was going on all over the LA Basin.
Nothing short of deporting the millions of illegal alien foreign nationals now here will save California. And if those outside the state think this problem will stay inside California they are fooling themselves. If nothing else it guarantees the Obama Democrats 55 electoral votes for perpetuity, and the pressure to admit and amnesty millions of more illegals will be relentless.
Fight it here, fight it now, or lose the country. It’s really that simple.
OK, then Alabama should declare itself a “sanctuary state” with regard to gay marriage. It will be a sanctuary from the federal interperation of marriage.
I mean, two can play at this game, right?
Maybe all states with Republican controlled legislatures should simply defy SCOTUS.
What then, liberals? What will you do? Mock us on SNL?
In fact, the whole southeast should declare itself a “sanctuary region” in defiance of federal law. No more Roe v. Wade, no more federal social security withholding, no more gay marriage.
I’m kind of liking this idea of sanctuary.
How ‘bout them apples, liberals?
When I got sick c. 2003 and had to sell my home, I got about half of what I should have gotten. A guy who brings in illegals for agriculture bought the old place across the street and moved in 21 illegals and 1 illegal woman with kids to ‘serve’ them. They were living in carports, sheds..you name it. When the realtors would drive down the street to show my home, they were always in the streets...’hangin’ out’...they would run up and slam the hood of the car of the prospective buyer.
I lost my life’s savings because of Illegal aliens...many people lost much more.
PS..when I called the county about this illegal living arrangment, they told me no one else was complaining (they were AFRAID TO!) and I was a racist. Until they hurt someone, I needed to SHUT UP.
This sort of thing has been going on all over SoCal for decades. Too many city governments turn a blind eye, unless it’s their own neighborhood being wrecked. It usually isn’t.
Since it’s little people being the elites running the GOPe have been every bit as bad as the Democrats who encourage mass illegal immigration. If you get ruined it’s an acceptable loss, nothing to get excited about.
