[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]  That does not disqualify Alexandria or any other city as a sanctuary city.  But if the Feds make a request for the local police to make an arrest solely for an immigration violation, Alexandria will say no, and ICE will have to come do it with their own agents.  [/quote]

I am sure the City will make such an arrest, [b]when they have a policeman free to do so.  Since they do not seem to have the resources [/b]to have a policeman regularly present at the arterial near my house, where people regularly speed, often make illegal right turns on red without stopping, and sometimes just run the red light I would suggest that may be some time. [/quote]

Umm, Alexandria City has one of the highest number of police forces around. We are definitely not lacking in police people here.[/quote]

Your source for this?   Do you live in or near Alexandria?

There are many places in Alexandria where I would appreciate a greater police presence, both for traffic enforcement and other reasons.  To me those are the priorities. [/quote]

Yes, I do live here. This has been discussed at Council Meetings also.

25% higher officers per person than what, a national average?  An average that includes rural areas, areas with less crime and less traffic issues than Alexandria?

Thanks for proving my point.  Alexandria has no particular surplus of police.   And it has many things they need to address.  [/quote]
