Good
Excellent job by ICE.
That’s a head-spinning headline. It’s as if ICE is the one “defying” the law.
Good.
But consider this scenario.
Replace immigration sanctuary with Second Amendment sanctuary.
Replace ICE with ATF.
It isn’t the law.
It is an illegal edict by liberal cities/counties.
Consider the response in each scenario.
Per the article, the response was harsh language.
The ATF will not survive for long as a functional entity in the scenario you posit. They will, sooner or later, have physical items forcefully directed at them, not harsh language.
Now if PDJT would PURGE the DOJ, FBI and BATFE, for starters, maybe we would start seeing more law and order instead of chaos.
It is Bizarre in the extreme, ain’t it?
Always fun to watch leftists pivot 180 degrees in a split second, depending on what the particular issue is. I’m pretty sure “States Rights!!” Is the Cause Du Jour here, but that will change. They believe in Federalism when it goes their way. “Immigration” enforcement is exclusively the purview of the Federal Government, we are told. Especially when said Federal Government refuses to enforce those laws.
In THAT situation, the Federal Government will SUE the states that dare to enforce “Immigration Law” in exactly the same manner they are required to, except they don’t wanna, ‘cause “feelings” or Reasons. Remember that? Arizona & Gov. Jan Brewer.
Yesterdays settled law becomes today’s “Resistance!!”. Heads they win, tails you lose.
ROCK ON, ICE!
Come to Colorado soon
Who gives a shi! what that shi! house San Fransisco says or does. Make arrest in the courthouse and warn the presiding judge that jail time could happen.
Since when a federal agency should abide city rules? I’d say in most sane countries local officials issuing such rules would be disqualified at the very least but most likely prosecuted for abuse and treason.
Great points. Thanks!
YAY, ICE!
It is so hard for me to understand why the people of California continue to put up with allowing criminals to be constantly released back into society to continue robbing, stealing, assaulting, and murdering their people...
WTH is WRONG with y’all????????
The ICE agents were outside of the state courthouse when they arrested the guy. The California pols can complain, but they can’t really stop the federal agents from doing their job.
IIRC, we fought a Civil War over that very point.
Spot on!
Now tell me you trust the SF counsel clowns of the border issues more than to the feds.
Immigration is a federal matter.
Let the city deal with the homeless and clean crap.
