It is incredible that this statement comes from a police chief. Illegal aliens break our immigration laws, employment laws, engage in all sorts of fraudulent activities and graft and this police chief thinks that they should be able to do this out in the open! Since when shouldn't criminals remain in the shadows? This guy seems to have a problem with his own job of enforcing the law when it comes to illegals. With a profile like that he would make a great fit in Bushs INS department. I wonder if this cop would give me a break if I was pulled over for driving on an expired license?
