Daily Caller ^ | May 19, 2017 | Alex Pfeiffer

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said Friday that it is "distressing" that non-criminal illegal immigrants are being arrested.

[Snip]

In New York City, ICE arrested 156 non-criminal illegal immigrants, more than double the amount for the same period last year. De Blasio said in a radio interview with WNYC that "it's very distressing, Brian, to hear that ICE is picking up people who are law abiding and contributing to the community."

This is a thread that needs a like button!

All liberals are brain dead and they are systematically destroying our country.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of liberals in the Republican Party too.

Only in the Land of Liberals would that statement make any sense.

“Law-abiding” and “illegal” are not synonymous, De Blasé.

Stop federal funding of Schools. Return schools back to the local communities. If the states want to fund them, that is their decision. But Federal Funding is based on butts in the chairs. This is why liberals encourage illegals.

Stop Federal funding of all social programs - again, the Federal government’s money encourages states to enlarge programs. The more illegals the more $ states get.

So the solution is simple, stop all Federal money going to states except for highways and the National Guard

De Blasio is a man whose ideology trumps logic, reason, and rationality.

He isn't stupid. He is a power hungry communist ideologue. There is a difference. We would be smart to recognize that difference.

You’re absolutely right, and they showed their hands when they opposed Trump - who campaigned on a platform that would benefit 99.9% of Americans.

There are many traitors in our “leadership” class. These bums/thugs/idiots are irredeemably anti-Free-American and anti-American-Citizen. Throw these bums OUT! Lunatics of the highest order.

The real number is not 110 million illegals, but it is very likely more than 11 million. That’s why I added “plus” for “11 million plus”. Illegals need to go, with no path to citizenship or even legal residence.

Liberals are brain dead, but have you ever been around a group of them talking?
I have so many times, and they honestly think they are smart. They actually think they are tolerant, and do not see their own anger,and intolerance when others have a different view of them. Some of them preach diversity, and yet are the most racist people I have ever met.

They sit around, and tell each other how smart they are, how tolerant they are, and actually call others what they are. The perfect example is when you see them with anti fascist signs while they are attacking others with opposing views, they are closing down peoples speech, and are being the fascist, or NAZI like in the 1930’s they pretend to be against.

Most New Yorkers (city of NY) consider themselves to be the sharpest, hippest, most superior people in the nation, if not the universe.

But just one look at the people they admire and the people they elect shows that the truth is just the opposite.

The NEW, NEW MATH?

Back in the early years of the Bush administration we were told there were 12 million illegals here.

And that about 1 million more entered every year.

Now more than 15 years later, after Obama's 8 years of illegals flooding across the open border, we are told that there are only 11 million illegals here!!

Whole school districts would cease operations without illegals and anchor babies.

And many, many speakeasies and gambling dens would have had to cease operations if Al Capone had been put behind bars sooner.
