She should also ask the sheriff to not enforce the bank robbing law either.

Isn't there a law that will prosecute and jail this lawless Mayor? If so, what are federal or FL state AGs waiting for? Unless lawless politicians are put in jail, they will continue their lawless behavior.

Republican leaders are blasting Jacksonville Mayor Donna Deegan for suggesting, in a British interview, that Donald Trump wants to create “concentration camps” to deport illegal immigrants.

Several Republican City Council members demanded that Deegan apologize, and Sheriff T. K. Waters, also a Republican, called Deegan’s comments on Times Radio “shocking and reckless.”

A Mayor’s job is to ensure that municipal services such as public safety for residents. How is it that these people get elected and then figure on not doing their job enforcing the law.

This Mayor should be fired.

The mayor can suggest, but she can’t order an elected law enforcement official.

Sheriff is elected for county. City Mayor shouldn’t have jurisdiction.

Trying to get the sheriff arrested is not a good look.

Deegan: “We need to have these immigrants who work for less and take jobs that a lot of blacks would normally take. The jobs get done more cheaply and the blacks are kept jobless, dependent and voting for my party. What’s not to like?”

LOL. If there is one place where public officials and law enforcement aren’t going to be able to play games with enforcing immigration laws, its Florida. I bet the Jacksonville sheriff will use this as a reason to enforce immigration law even harder.

Mayor Clown of Jacksonville cannot stop the sheriff from enforcing immigration laws and helping out the Feds/ICE during immigration raids. Mayor clown can only request and make empty threats to the local sheriff, who is an elected official.

Didn’t the mayor take an oath to uphold the law when he was sworn in?
