I get that. But my question is this - Who at the local level is willing to fight this?  I don't want a police state, but [b]the insistence that our own protective forces cannot do this basic, essential job[/b] is maddening.

Add to that the hype around sanctuary cities, and this situation further polarizes us.  The idea of sanctuary has been around forever but it started in the 80s as a way to protect refugees.  At this point, it's been "extended" to protect anyone who's here illegally.

I understand stereotyping. I know that not all illegal immigrants are criminals.  But if some a**hole is pulled over for drunk driving and is arrested for almost killing someone, what's the lag time between the the LEA arrest and the ICE contact?  And at this point, how does  LEA determine if ICE is necessary?

It's a basic, essential job [i]that is not the job of county police[/i]. [/quote]

Checking someone's fingerprints isnt some long hard task. Give it a break. No one is saying sanctuary counties like MoCo need to participate in raids but running a computer check and picking up the phone isnt some huge drain on resources.  Dont they help other police jurisdictions or do they shrug their shoulders if/when the FBI or others want to partner? This is a bs excuse that its not their jobs to help ICE. At least politicians should have the courage to admit they want to make it harder to deport people here illegally so that they can continue to collect CASA donation checks. [/quote]

This exactly.  [/quote]
