'It's Unconstitutional': More CA Cities Looking to Opt Out of Sanctuary Law
Yahoo via Fox News ^ | 03/26/2018

The mayor of Aliso Viejo, California is joining leaders of other cities looking to opt out of state's "sanctuary" law, which allows for less cooperation on the local level with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials.

Mayor David Harrington (R) expressed his disagreement with the designation on "Cavuto Live," calling it "unconstitutional" and saying it makes residents less safe.

[The sanctuary state law] is about letting criminals out of jail, period," Harrington said.

A proposal by Los Alamitos Rep. Warren Kusumoto to opt his city out of the law was met with overwhelming support. Harrington said the reaction in his city has been "overwhelmingly positive."

"It's been going about 50-1, in favor," he said.

When asked about how Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf's (D) controversial warning given to illegal immigrants about a pending ICE raid, Harrington said Schaaf "basically committed a felony."

"Why she's not facing any repercussions for obstructing justice is just a travesty, in my opinion," he said.

These morons are learning - too late - that liberal sanctuary cities policies are harmful and damaging to a normal society.

Too late.

I love it when someone has the guts to state the blunt truth.

But they ARE learning, and for that we can be grateful.

I agree. It has to be good that at least some people in that big state are getting it. As much as we sometimes think, we can’t leave them to rot, slide off into the ocean, or secede from the Union, as appetizing as all those options occasionally sound.

There are conservatives out there, and we’re on their side.

About 35%-38% of the California population have their heads screwed on correctly.

More people there identify as Conservatives than liberals. California has a corrupt government dominated by Democrats from the urban areas.

Funny you should mention that.

A thread I posted last week on the "sanitary" conditions there...

Nothing in San Francisco is shocking anymore

Yes, there are 15,000,000 of us Conservatives living in California, so please don’t lump and criticize everyone here. Remember, the founder/owner/operator of FR lives in Fresno, California.

Americans will prevail, these people are beginning to revolt against the lawlessness of California’s state government.

What San Fran needs is a big supply
of water and a flush handle. It’s already
a toilet.

Yes. I know all that. I come from a blue state as well, but there are plenty of conservatives here, so I understand completely.

A lot of people seem to think putting up a fence at state borders is going to somehow prevent Leftism from spreading to their states...it won’t.

There is Leftism (like a cancer) inside even the reddest states. And like a one-way ratchet, Leftism rarely surrenders territory it has taken from us.

We need to fight it everywhere.
