TypicalFish 0 #1 July 24, 2008 Seriously, how does this make sense? NOT cooperating with the federal government in identifying ILLEGAL immigrants? I am all for anyone who wants to try to make a life for themselves, BUT, laws are laws. Don't "sanctuary cities" ENCOURAGE illegals to go (and stay) there? Article which made me think about this HERE... Excerpt: The victims' family learned that Ramos had been arrested at least three times before the shooting and evaded deportation, largely because of San Francisco's sanctuary status. The policy, adopted in 1989 by the city's elected Board of Supervisors, bars local officials from cooperating with federal authorities in their efforts to deport illegal immigrants.

kelpdiver 2 #7 July 25, 2008 With the mayor looking to run for governor next year, he has to beef up the law and order credentials, so it will be interesting to see how much he torques the "sanctuary" label. The other recent incident was the busing of illegal alien drug dealer punks to LA, where they promptly escaped. Newsome has vowed to change that policy. Countering the incentive for illegals to come to SF is the cost of living here. Average rent is around $1800. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
